It always makes me so happy when my clients choose a location I’ve never been to before. Paige and Jacob’s Peace Valley Engagement session had my heart on fire! This place was absolutely stunning!! I arrived early to their session to do a little scouting to make sure I found the best possible spots for them. I walked around the lake and found some absolutely gems!

Scroll through to see this gorgeous lakeside session and to hear a little bit about their love story!

How They Met:

“We officially met when I was in 7th grade and he was in 9th grade. Since I was new to the highschool, they had 9th grade ambassadors who would help 7th graders around the school; unlock lockers and do different activities together as well. Jake was not my ambassador, but I wished he was, and with some persuading I got him to help me around! I instantly fell in love, we did not date until a few years later. One summer, I texted Jake asking if he would like to meet up at our local park and play soccer. We went on a few more dates that summer and he would come to my swim practices to see me. He asked me out on July 7th 2012!”



“What defines us is our strength we have been together through alot and people doubted us staying together which fueled out fire. Now look we are one step closer to getting married soon yay!!”

Ya’ll, Paige and Jacob are SERIOUSLY best friends, they share a young love that is just as playful and fun as I’m sure it was back in the 8th grade! During their session I told them they could relax while I got my settings right in camera and I looked up to see them sharing a secret handshake that Jacob had made up. How cute is that! I love the young spirits these two have. They aren’t afraid to laugh and play like kids, and that’s something that every relationship needs!! I mean just look at how they smile together!






Paige and Jacob, thank you so much for choosing me to be your photographer! I had so much fun hanging out with you during your session and I already cannot wait for your wedding this year! It’ll be here before you know it and it’ll be the best day you could of imagined! I can’t wait to cheer you on into marriage together.
