We simply can not get enough of this breathtaking fall weather for our engagement sessions!  It’s always an incredible honor to capture this exciting milestone for so many amazing couples, and when Shelby reached out to book her wedding this past summer, we were thrilled! We had photographed weddings for two of her cousins, and we are beyond grateful for their referrals!  Shelby and Mitch are the sweetest couple ever and love spending time together outdoors.  They were hoping to schedule their session at a park with a lake, and we knew of the perfect place.  We met at Clifton E. French Regional Park on an absolutely gorgeous evening, and set off to explore together.  

Following a few portraits on the bridge, we headed for the docks overlooking the water.  We had the best time chatting throughout the evening, and getting to know their story has been so much fun!  They met while attending college at the University of North Dakota in Grand Forks.  Friends of theirs were dating and invited them to come with to a hockey game.  Little did they know it then, but Mitch would later surprise Shelby by proposing at that very same arena!  Of course Shelby said yes, and the two spent the rest of the day visiting a few more of the meaningful spots in the area, officially soaking up the fall season as fiances. 

They began wedding planning, and each made a Top 10 list of their favorite venues.  Both of their lists included the beautiful Legacy Hill Farm in Welch, and we are so excited to continue capturing their love story there next summer!  The two will host their big day surrounded by the beauty of its rolling hills, and we can’t wait to celebrate with them alongside their family and friends!
