Elegant Lakeside Engagement Session

With a storm teasing it’s approach as Charity Maurer snapped away, this engagement shoot captures the powerful beauty of Mother Nature, not to mention the romance between these two lovebirds. The natural backdrop may have been absolutely amazing but it was no competition to the looks this stylish duo had for each other (and that Joanna August for BHLDN dress!) – join me in crushing on these cuties in our VAULT right this way!

From Charity Maurer Photography… Stunning in her BHLDN dress, and looking dapper in his grey suit, Valerie and Tom are the picture of romance. What’s more is they are even more in love with one another than they look. To celebrate their engagement, the couple headed out to a secluded lake in the high desert of Arizona. Surrounded by both cactus and water, mesquite trees and waves, this couple shone like stars. As they melted into one another’s arms, huge storm clouds threatened to roll in, creating the most stunningly breathtaking background. This session was the perfect expression of their love: dreamy yet powerful. We hope you enjoy the photos as much as we have!
