Phill + Alexandra’s Colorful Autumn Engagement Session at Fellows Riverside Gardens by Youngstown Engagement Photographer Jessica Kae Photography

Donny & I are so excited to share this beautiful autumn engagement session featuring Phill & Alexandra! This day offered absolutely gorgeous weather & fall scenery at the peak of autumn! The colors were magical & we’re so happy to have been able to squeeze this session into a very busy fall schedule!

Phill + Alexandra are such a fun & sweet couple! They were so playful, funny, & cool to hangout with, and so easy to photograph! Donny & I knew when we met up with these two over coffee that we’d really enjoy working with them! We definitely have, and we had so much fun during this session! (Donny & I really never get tired of capturing love stories & meeting new people!) It was a blast and we’re absolutely in love with all of these gorgeous, colorful fall photos & the variety offered by Fellows Riverside Gardens.

Donny & I have had sooo many sessions and weddings over the last couple of months! Every year is busy during fall, but this October/November was beyond popular for engagement photos! We’re now trying to catch up on all of these blogs from the last month or so with the holidays and everything. Some of the locations may get a little repetitive, but the scenery really never loses its beauty! It’s constantly changing, especially at Fellows! It’s one of our favorite locations to photograph at in the Valley and for good reason! Mill Creek Park really is the gem of Youngstown, Ohio.

Enjoy some of our favorite moments from this gorgeous engagement session at Fellows Riverside Gardens! 🙂

Kind Words

We are so happy with our experience that we had to yell it from the mountain tops! They made sure we got all of the dreamy photos we were hoping for! It snowed like crazy, but nothing fazes these two!
