When I met Bethany and Chuck earlier this year, I knew they were exactly the kind of couple that would be a total joy to work with. Bethany is completely laid back and Chuck has exactly the kind of humor I love – a little bit sarcastic with a few puns thrown in for good measure. When we met, they talked about doing their engagement session in South Haven and I have been excited ever since as I was there for the very first time last year and I completely fell in love with the atmosphere! So we met at the South Haven pier last weekend and spent the next couple of hours taking relaxed photographs all over the scenic areas along Lake Michigan and in the little downtown area of South Haven. Bethany brought along her sister, Jessica, to serve as her stylist which was an amazing idea and Bethany looked gorgeous and stylish the whole time (thank you, Jessica!) – just wait, you’ll see! The day was also a completely gorgeous one – and not in the obvious sunny summer day sort of way – but rather there was a thick fog all along the coastline which added a gorgeous moody feel to so many of these images. Pretty fancy for some romantic engagement photographs! Congratulations to them once again!
When I got home from South Haven later that evening, what else would I do but hop on Facebook? I loved Bethany’s status that said something along the lines of how fun engagement photos were and how she felt rejuvenated after staring into Chuck’s eyes for so long. How adorable is that?
You guys are gorgeous together!
I thought about peeling these shoes off of Bethany’s feet. But I think her sister, Jessica, the owner of the shoes, would have put up a good fight so I refrained.
I am in love with this series. It was all Chuck’s idea to give Bethany a flower and these turned out to be some of my favorite from the entire session. Thanks, Chuck!
Bethany and Chuck: I am SO happy we could make an engagement session in South Haven work. I hope you guys love the preview! I love the connection the two of you have and feel so lucky that I was able to spend some time in a gorgeous place capturing it all! Ten months will go by SO fast and I know you guys will have a wonderful wedding day celebration! Wishing you both all the best,
nicole
