Oatlands Plantation | Engagement Session | Virginia Wedding Photographer

Their love story:

“Scott and I met all the way back in Middle School. In High School we were in the same friend group but were never all that close. We started hanging out more after we both graduated college and ended up back in the same place. One day the stars finally aligned and we both were in a place to start dating each other. Ever since then it has been an amazing time doing life together. Scott proposed to me this past July at our favorite place, the beach. We always joke around that we wish we had figured out how much we loved each other earlier on so that we could have been together for longer. Honestly, I love our timing of things and I think both of us needed to go through those years experiencing other people and other hardships to get us to where God wanted us to be for each other. “

Okay, is that not one of the sweetest stories?! The timing of it all just seems so meaningful and I already know y’all are gonna melt scrolling through this session!!!

Scott and Cassandra + their their adorable pup Dallas met me for their shoot with an iced coffee with MY name on it…I think when they said “we stalked your Insta to find your coffee order” I knew I loved them in that moment hahah but in all seriousness: these two are the realest. I had such a great time getting to know them and honestly trying not to crack up the entire time because Scott is hilarious.I left their session thinking on the drive home ” you know you’ve struck gold with your clients when you genuinely could photograph them all night because you don’t want to stop hanging out with them😂 AKA: counting down the days til their wedding when we get to do this all over again✨!!
