Katie & James : Engagement

If you’re friends with me (Chelsea) or Mack on Facebook, you will have seen lots of mention of the current home renovation we’re undergoing. I promise, when it’s done (somewhere in the wonderful, sweet, quite nebulous future), we’ll be sharing some fun “Before & After” photos of all the work we’re doing. But admittedly, right now, it’s hard to see past the hardcore bummer of not being able to decorate our home for Christmas. It’s no secret that we go HARD for holidays, and we’ve always done big Christmas. So this year, we’re getting it in other ways, trying to pump our lives full of that spirit of cheer even if we can’t have a living room tree.

So you can bet that when Katie said she wanted to fully embrace the Christmas season in her engagement session with James, I JUMPED for joy and started planning all sorts of seasonal wonderfulness. This session is so perfectly THEM, and made our hearts so happy to photograph. I’m in love with every single frame, and if their reactions to the sneak peeks are any indication, Katie & James will love them just as much. 🙂

Check out some of our favorites from this snuggly-wonderful Christmas engagement session!

Hot cocoa, gingerbread cookies, and classic records make for a perfect holiday picnic!
