Hayden and Bridget are such an adorable couple! Their engagement session was a heartwarming experience filled with sweetness and love. We decided to venture out of our comfort zones and meet at Fernwood Botanical Garden in Niles—a first for all of us, and a good middle point since we live so far apart!
While most of the vibrant fall colors had faded by the time we could meet (thanks to my busy October and Hayden's packed residency schedule), we weren't about to let that stop us from creating some magic. The muted tones of late autumn gave the garden a quiet charm, and Hayden and Bridget brought all the warmth we needed!
I loved watching the way they interacted—so natural and full of care for one another. It was a joy getting to know them better as we explored the gardens. Their connection is undeniable, and it has me even more excited for their wedding next year. I just know it's going to be incredible, and I can't wait to capture every moment!
