I am always looking for ways to give back to my amazing clients, and what better way than to offer a free photoshoot to one lucky couple? I recently held a random selection from my previous clients, and I was thrilled when Scott and Haleigh’s names came up! Having known them for years, I was excited to capture their love story freshly and creatively. From our first conversation, it was clear that this couple embodies joy, adventure, and a deep bond built over more than four years together. With their adorable dog Pi by their side, we set out to create some beautiful memories at Evergreen Lake.
With its stunning natural beauty, Evergreen Lake served as the perfect backdrop for our shoot. The sun shone warmly over the water as we arrived, and the surrounding trees provided a vibrant splash of color. We started with some casual shots, allowing Scott and Haleigh to relax and enjoy each other’s company. Their love for each other was palpable as they shared laughter and playful glances. It was heartwarming to see how they naturally connected, whether walking in the field by the lake or cuddling with Pi. I encouraged them to be themselves, capturing candid moments reflecting their personalities.
Scott and Haleigh’s journey together is a beautiful blend of support and shared dreams. As they navigate their respective studies—Haleigh in nursing and Scott in aviation—they also prepare for the exciting milestone of buying their first house. Their commitment to each other shines through in how they support one another, especially during challenging times. We took some time to reflect on their love story during our shoot.
From their initial meeting in high school to their countless adventures together, each moment has shaped their relationship into what it is today. It was essential to them that we captured not just posed photos but authentic moments that tell their story.
One of the day's highlights was when we decided to get a little adventurous with the poses. Scott and Haleigh were open to trying playful shots like playing tag, which led to some of the most joyful images of the day. Their willingness to embrace the moment and a touch of spontaneity made for some genuinely memorable captures. Despite Haleigh’s aversion to bees (and trust me, we kept an eye out!), she was a trooper, and they both embraced the idea of getting a little dirty and messy. After all, what’s a photoshoot without a bit of fun?
As we wrapped up the session, I saw that Scott and Haleigh were thrilled. They wanted to look back on these photos from 20 years ago and remember the fun, laughter, and love they shared during this time. By the end of our time together, I felt I had captured their passion and created an experience they could cherish forever. They are a couple that genuinely celebrates each other, and I am so grateful to have had the opportunity to document their journey at Evergreen Lake. Thank you, Scott and Haleigh, for allowing me to be a part of such a special moment in your lives. I can’t wait to see where your adventures take you next!
