James & Trenton || A Brown’s Island Engagement Session

Ya know when you meet someone and just immediately fall in love?

That’s exactly how I felt when I met James and Trenton.

I mean, I’m sure that’s how they felt about EACH OTHER, too… but…

OK, seriously! The minute we sat down for our first meeting I KNEW that I wanted to photograph these two beautiful souls, their effervescent love, and their gorgeous, rustic, mountainside wedding day!

James and Trenton met several years ago at the Barnes and Noble where James was working during college. Trenton saw him there and asked him out for coffee…and the rest is history!

Through their over 4 years together they have enjoyed traveling, watching and rewatching countless seasons of “Friends” (because – who doesn’t?), and dreaming up adorable literary-themed wedding elements ;-).

I couldn’t have been happier than when they showed up to their engagement session with one of their favorite books, “Harry Potter and the Sorcerer’s Stone”, and asked to incorporate it into some of their images. Can you say ADORABLE?!? Couple that with the beautiful RVA skyline, the James River, and the beauty of Brown’s Island, and you definitely have one of my favorite engagement sessions-to-date!

James and Trenton, your love is so beautiful and I am so incredibly lucky to be able to witness the chemistry and connection that you share. I am honored to be able to capture your wedding day and I can’t wait to see you both again so we can pretend to cook and instead binge on Netflix :).
