Romantic Engagement Session, Virginia Beach Photographer

I am sharing some beautiful sneak peeks from this recent Virginia Beach engagement session today! Bailey and Ethan were engaged last Friday, and we shot their engagement portraits on Saturday at First Landing State Park.

They are both from Texas and grew up together, so the connection with these two is deep. Ethan is currently stationed in Norfolk, and Bailey flew up to spend the week with him. He took her to the Norfolk Botanical Garden on Friday and popped the question among the flowering pink magnolia trees - romantic right?

We didn't find any magnolias in bloom at First Landing, but we did make good use of the one Bradford Pear tree we found. I just love how comfortably these two settle into each other - a perfect fit!

"You are my best friend, my human diary, my other half - you mean the world to me."

The more time we spent talking and shooting, the more evident it became that Bailey and Ethan have the kind of enduring bond that can weather any storm. The respect and love they share not only brings them happiness and comfort, but also sustains them and allows them the freedom to grow. I have no doubt that they will continue to grow together, and to lift each other up as they navigate life's trials and triumphs.
