Michael + Kelly met us for their Engagement Session at one of Richmond’s most loved parks, Libby Hill. The trees are turning orange and shades of burgundy and the sun felt so warm in contrast to the cooling air! Kelly and Michael also brought Keira, the cutest little adopted pup along for some pictures! Keira was so excited to be out of the suburbs and smelling all of the new smells!
The sun was so glowy as it was settling in for the night, and it made for some extra dreamy light!
Michael + Kelly seriously were rocking their session even before we moved out of the first spot!! Just being around them you could feel how much they loved each other which was such a joy to photograph!
We did have to dodge a few park-goers…. one overly buff jogger who came around the bend as Michael was about to pick up Kelly off the ground for a shot! Thank goodness that guy had earphones in because Michael yelled to him if he could get some help picking up Kelly and I lost it laughing!!! Michael picked up his Barbie doll fiancé just fine on his own! 🙂 I love their light-hearted sense of humor!!
I honestly need Kelly as my personal stylist!!!!
Also, let’s all slow clap for Michael on this STUNNING ring. Guys, this rock was as close to timeless perfection as it gets!!
When we met for our consultation, they mentioned that they really wanted the Richmond skyline as a scenic backdrop to their pictures. Libby Hill did not disappoint!
Sam took the wide scenic shot on the left and I shot the one on the right with a portrait lens. Teamwork for the win!
Kelly + Michael casually were like “no, we’ve never been in front of a camera before.” Next thing I know, Kelly is tossing out a Smize that would have made Tyra Banks proud! Michael just beamed at her the whole time!
Such a gorgeous couple!!
Michael + Kelly,
You two were a joy to spend this early evening with! You two are so funny and ridiculously photogenic!! We can’t wait for your wedding in May! Give little Keira a hug for us 🙂
Love,
The Tuckers
