Michael & Christy | Engagements
First of all, huge shout out to my little sister and her FIANCE! What? I'm totally okay with that. #bigsisterprobs
But actually, I was super stoked for this engagement session! They were high school sweethearts and I couldn't be happier for them to be tying the knot in August!
Quick flashback to when I took Christy's senior photos:

I mean seriously, aren't
they ADORABLE?
Fast forward back to real time. I'm so excited to share these gems! First stop: Little Cottonwood Canyon

This picture cracks me up! It turned out well, it was just a bit of an adventure getting the shot... MOSTLY because a certain someone *ahem, Christy* was frightened of the swan. I was dying laughing trying to calm her down and tell her it was okay. I thought the swan added a nice little romantic touch. Obviously, Christy didn't agree with me ;)

Love how much they laugh together
Next stop: Downtown Provo for some SUPER fun shots. Christy was all prepared with some AMAZING props. I'm tempted to go make a similar "and" sign to have on hand for future photoshoots. Plus it looked great with her KILLER RED DRESS. But don't take my word for it, see for yourself:

Like hello! So totally steamy! And that dress!!! Mmm, so perfect.
Alright, last stop: BYU! I just adore the South Campus Trail and Stream. It's a PERFECT spot for engaged couples at BYU.
