Engagement + Date Night Location Guide
I LOVE finding new places and just taking in their beauty!!! When it comes to photos, sometimes you don't want to discover somewhere brand new or you just straight up don't even know where to start...and that's where I come in!!!
The locations I have listed here are some of my favourites that I have ever shot at as well as some new places that I have already checked out and are now looking for the right couple to capture there.
Take a scroll through and see if there is a place where you're like "heck yeah" you know that's the spot you want, or if there's a feeling of one that you would love to find in another spot. I'm down for all of it. I'm even cool if you're just taking a scroll through even though you already have your dream spot picked out.
Throughout the list, you will find some with a little ❤︎ beside the vendor name. Theses are my vendor friends that actively work to create a welcoming and safe space that empowers throughout their business and everything they do.
