Confession Time!! I freaking love flowers more than life (ha!) and I’ve lived in Fayetteville for over seven years and I’m always shooting in flower gardens everywhere (check out this dreamy October wedding at the St. Louis botanical gardens and this gorgeous editorial at a Kansas City rose garden!) and, despite all this, I’ve never in my life shot a single session at the Botanical Gardens of the Ozarks.
BUT! This past June?! I finally kicked that off my photography bucket list!
Amelia and Tad are one of those ridiculously happy couples that just make you grin as soon as you see them. These two lovebirds married one another this past weekend at Hazel Valley Ranch and it was the most beautiful day! Tad is one those grooms (now husbands!) that absolutely adores his bride (now wife!) and the two of them were so sweet and their happiness was so infectious, too. I’m so thrilled for this sweet family and I’m so excited to share their sweet engagement photographs!
We started our shoot at the Botanical Gardens and, since this session was in early June, everything was so alive and perky and ridiculously happy. The setting was so perfect for Amelia and Tad! Love these!!
How cute are these family shirts?! After shooting at the gardens, we walked around to one of my very favorite fields in Fayetteville and took these sweet family photographs. Mason is such a cutie and this sweet family just has so much love for one another! Congrats, y’all!! You’re amazing!
