Cozy Winter Engagement Session at Camellia Gardens

I first met Kelsey during my initial meeting with her best friend, Jessica, who’d recently gotten engaged and was looking for a wedding photographer (and I’m SO excited for Jessica and Tanner’s engagement session and wedding next year)! At the time, Kelsey wasn’t engaged, but Dustin ended up purposing to her just a couple months later! Kelsey contacted me immediately and I could not have been more excited!

I hadn’t met Dustin yet, but by the way Kelsey and her mom spoke about him during our meeting, I knew he was going to be just as great, and they were not wrong!

Kelsey and Dustin chose to do their engagement session at their wedding venue, the Camellia Gardens in Monroe, NC! Let me tell you… the venue is STUNNING! Despite it being the middle of December, the venue was beautiful! I can only imagine how much more beautiful it is when everything is blooming! It was a cloudy day, but that did not stop us from making the most of it! Kelsey and Dustin are so clearly in love and that’s displayed in every single image. I honestly can’t even choose a favorite! Plus… Kelsey’s OUTFIT! Swoon!

I absolutely CANNOT WAIT to photograph Kelsey and Dustin’s wedding next June! It’s going to be beautiful! Not to mention, they’re pros in front of the camera!

Now, enjoy some of my favorites from their stunning, winter engagement session!
