GARY + JASMINE | rawlings conservatory engagement session

I can not even begin to express to you how bad I’d wanted to have someone book a session for Rawlings Conservatory so when Jasmine and Gary said that they wanted to go - I didn’t hesitate. Without any real game plan - we wandered around the lush greenhouse and outside of the conservatory and I think their photos feel intimate, relaxed and, at times - seductive. Engagement sessions are a fantastic opportunity to get to know how I work as a photographer and for me to see how you as a couple interact. I find that my couples who have engagement sessions are more relaxed on their wedding days in front of the camera because they’ve been there and done it. It’s also lovely to have another set of photos of you and your person that doesn’t have the weight and madness of your actual big day. So - if you’re thinking you want to get dressed up (or not!) and go make out in a greenhouse (or in a park! or museum! or your home!) - let’s do it!
