From the very first hug, it felt like reconnecting with old friends!! Carlee and Chris brought so much joy and love to their session…full of laughter, sweet giggles, cozy snuggles and allllll the best energy!!!😍

We kicked things off at Rolling Hills Country Club, where the setting made the perfect backdrop for this sweet season of life. Then we made our way to Friedman Park and wandered through the prettiest fields, soaking in all those romantic, peaceful vibes.

How did you meet?!

What was your first date?!

“Our first date was at The Landing, a restaurant in Newburgh on the waterfront!”

How did he propose?!

“October 19, 2024 — Chris told me months in advance that he was going to take me to Farmer and Frenchman Winery on Saturday October 19th to celebrate our 3 year anniversary. After we had wine and appetizers that day, he took me down to the vineyard and asked me to marry him there. Chris was so nervous I thought he was going to pass out. In the moment, I was also so excited that we both still don’t quite remember everything he said while he was down on one knee. We took some pictures there before leaving to go home. Chris then later surprised me that day instead of going home, he drove me to where he planned out a party with the help of our close friends and family who were all there to celebrate our engagement! It was a perfect day!!!”
