When Kaitlyn said she wanted a Disney-themed engagement session, I was so excited! Disney princess costumes, lots of bold colors, Yes! While this actually took two sessions to complete, I applaud Cory, the groom-to-be, as he was a great sport!
Our first series is from the movie Up! If you’re not familiar with the movie, you should watch it. Click to see the trailer. The colors from this series was my favorite! Bold colors!!



That ring is so unusually beautiful!


This quick session was inspired from Lady and the Tramp! Meatball and spaghetti not optional!


“Tales as old as time….” I cannot wait to see Beauty and the Beast when it comes out on the big screen!!






So this next series, is from the classic Cinderella. This session was planned the day of the shoot, including the dress! The dress was a neighbor’s wedding dress that was magically turned blue 😉






The Little Mermaid was quite the trek getting the boat in place as well as hiking down to Fort Boykins beach on a chilly day in December day. This was the spot Cory proposed to Kaitlyn back in May. View that beach proposal session here.



Formal shots to include sunset on the James










A FEW JUST FOR FUN!

Yes, Kaitlyn was freezing on the beach while Cory was busy sitting in the cold, wet sand to do as instructed…”roll up your pant legs!”

Cory may have gotten a workout trying to get this jump just right, LOL!

Kaitlyn decided to sing and entertain Cory while I was setting up the shot! Did I mention it was a fun shoot, LOL! Oh, and yes the dress was white!

A little dance instruction from Kaitlyn was in order on this pose!

This is definitely Kaitlyn and Cory!

Yes, this happened!


Congrats to this couple, Kaitlyn and Cory, my daughter and future son-in-law!
