Stacy and Courtney are getting married this weekend so I wanted to blog their super sweet engagement session.  We went all over Dallas from Lee Park in Turtle Creek to the Dallas Arboretum to Avanti Fountain Place in Downtown Dallas.  I had so much fun with these two and  I know their wedding is going to be a blast.   These two are so loving and caring of each other that it made my job so easy just capturing these wonderful moments between them.

These next set of pictures were taken at the Dallas Arboretum and have to be my favorites. Why? Because when I take engagement pictures I love for us to collaborate as these pictures to be treasured for generations.  The Dallas Arboretum has a very special meaning for Stacy and Courtney; it’s where Stacy got down on one knee, told Courtney he couldn’t live without her, how much he loved her, that she meant the world to her and then asked “will you marry me?”

I had Stacy direct us to where he proposed and I made Courtney sit down on the very same bench and Stacy get down on bended knee and propose again.  The emotions overwhelmed Courtney and she did start crying (I was holding back my tears too).  It means everything to be able to capture those memories and I know it means so much to them.  I know engagement pictures can be taken anywhere but I think its truly special when you can take them at a place that is special to you, that holds joy and happiness for you.

So sweet, right 🙂

We then headed over to my favorite spot in Downtown Dallas, Avanti Fountain Place.  There is nothing else like it as it feels like this hidden oasis nestled away like a secret garden away from the craziness of the city.

We ended with channeling one’s inner child and running through the fountain.  I love having fun with couples and Stacy and Courtney are a blast.

3 days till you both become husband and wife, YAY!!!! I’m so excited and can’t wait to photograph your wedding and capture more moments like these 🙂
