Taylor + Brandn Plantation Engagement

 

I was very happy to hear from Taylor about booking a couple shoot for her & her boyfriend Brandn! Iโ€™ve known Taylor since she was young and I did her senior pictures a few years ago! Taylor & Brandn wanted to do a couple session on the day of their anniversary and Taylor really wanted a plantation style! After alot of discussion back and forth and almost a last minute change due to the weather, we ended up at Greenwood Plantation which is one of my absolute favorite locations to shoot! Even if its not for a photoshoot, you should visit and tour Greenwood plantation! Anyway, what Taylor didnโ€™t know was Brandn and I had been talking and made a plan for him to propose that day! The plan was that I would set them up in a pose holding hands facing each other, and our code phrase for the proposal would be I would tell Taylor to look at Brandn (for a shot) and when I said that he would go down on one knee! But to get warmed up, and hopefully help Brandnโ€™s nerves, we started in their more casual outfit and shot in that for a little while! Then I had them change into their more dressy outfit. Taylor told me the oaks were her favorite part of Greenwood so I decided thatโ€™s where we would do the proposal! We walked out under the trees, I set them up in the pose, said the code phrase, and down Brandn went! The funny part is at first Taylor fussed Brandn cause she didnโ€™t know why he wasnโ€™t staying in the pose I put them in, then she realized what was happening! I loved being a part of this special moment and loved photographing these two! Taylor & Brandn are such a sweet couple, which you will clearly see in these photos! The way they look at each other and laugh with each other is so beautiful! I think to meet and fall in love at a young age is such a beautiful thing, to learn about life and grow up with each other is so special and creates a strong bond like no other! Iโ€™ve always wished my husband and I had met younger so we could have been together longer!

Congratulations to Taylor & Brandn and I wish the two of you a full lifetime of happiness! And hopefully more photoshoots in your future! :) Keep laughing together always!
