Alex + Becca's Engagement Session | Poland Municipal Forest | Poland, Ohio Engagement Photos | Youngstown Wedding Photographer
Alex and Becca are the kind of people you want to be friends with - that's the best way I can describe them! We met up on a frigid, snowy day at Poland Municipal Forest for a fun, nature-filled engagement session. They brought along their beautiful white husky, Hafis, their parents, and fresh coffee and creamer to share (which totally went a long way because we couldn't feel our fingers)! Poland woods quickly turned into one of my absolute favorite photography locations in the Youngstown area. It just has so many unique elements and lovely scenery!
I love how even in winter you can still find greenery. And all the white snow makes my photographer heart happy!!
Hafis <3 Such a good boy!
While Hafis wasn't busy being a model in his family pics, he had a blast running across the ice on the creek. ;) So adventurous.
My favorite part of shooting an engagement session is getting to know a couple personally before the wedding. It's such a fun opportunity to connect and build trust. In this instance I even got to meet some of their family and they were a TON of fun!! They spent the hour walking around the park with us, helping out, and seriously laughed/had a blast the whole time! :)
"Just letting you guys know I loooove you!" :)
You know how you just meet a couple and can tell they're meant to be together? Yep, that's these two. They're so full of warmth and love for one another. I'm willing to bet they'll still be sipping coffee together, hand in hand, in their 80's.
Coffee, all the coffee. <3
Like I said, it was COLD! LOL.
Poland Municipal Forest has some of the largest trees I've seen in the area! This spot made for some awesome shots.
One of my favorite photos from their session. #hearteyes
"Mom and Dad, you're so embarrassing." HAHAHA.
I was so excited when they busted out their Love Your Melon hats and twinkle lights!! PS - Love Your Melon donates 50% of its profits to benefit children with pediatric cancer.
How sweet is this bridge?!
Alex + Becca, I cannot WAIT for your wedding on August 24, 2018! Here's to all the good times to come!
