Caitlin & Brendan's Engagement

2025 is their year. Caitlin and Brendan are getting ready to say “I do,” and their engagement session felt like the perfect introduction to everything that’s ahead. From the very beginning, their session unfolded with warmth, laughter, and a sense of excitement that made every moment feel meaningful.


As a Richmond wedding photographer, it’s always a joy to document couples in this season — when anticipation is high and the story is just beginning.


A Connection That Feels Effortless


Caitlin’s vibrant, joyful personality pairs so beautifully with Brendan’s calm and caring presence. Together, they bring an energy that feels genuine and grounded. Caitlin’s laugh is contagious, and the way Brendan looks at her says everything without a word.


Their connection made this engagement session feel easy and unforced — the kind of dynamic that translates naturally into timeless images.



Exploring Richmond & Maymont for Engagement Session


Caitlin came into the session with a clear vision, from the locations to the overall feel of their photos. Together, we explored some of Richmond’s most charming spots — a city that effortlessly blends history, nature, and modern energy.


These locations offered beautiful variety for engagement photos meant for save-the-dates, wedding décor, and beyond. The golden light filtering through the clouds at Maymont brought an elegant, romantic softness to their gallery that felt perfectly aligned with their vision.



Finding New Perspectives in Familiar Places


One of the things I love most about being a Richmond wedding photographer is finding fresh perspectives in places that feel familiar. We began part of their session at Gather & Hem, where the setting added a modern, relaxed layer to their story before transitioning into more natural surroundings for the second half of their Maymont engagement session.


This balance between refined and organic spaces allowed their engagement session to feel cohesive, intentional, and true to who they are as a couple.



Looking Ahead to Their Wedding Day


Caitlin and Brendan are just getting started, and I already know their wedding day will be filled with the same joy, connection, and excitement they brought to this session. Photographing couples like them — who show up fully present with one another — is what makes this work so rewarding.


Caitlin and Brendan, thank you for trusting me to capture this chapter of your journey. Here’s to all the memories still to come — I can’t wait to celebrate with you again.
