From my first call with Morgan, I instantly knew I was going to love her! She is outgoing and kind and my goodness she has an incredible vision for her wedding day! I am already counting down the days until she and Jordan will say “I do” at Coxhall Gardens later this year, but first: their black and white engagement session.

Morgan shared with me during that call that she wanted to do something different. After she explained her vision to me I was immediately on board. Luxurious, sophisticated, and black and white were words we used to describe her ideal engagement photos. So we set to work to plan their session. And I have to say, Morgan and Jordan got every detail just right.

Jordan looked sharp in his black suit. Morgan looked amazing in her silk mini dress by By Watters Meringue. As a result, I was so inspired by the vibe they brought to their session. We even did a few direct flash photos for fun. It was an incredible session! I am so thankful to these two for spending their afternoon with me and cannot wait for their gorgeous wedding day in September!
