Kieran & Melissa | Mandeville Engagement Session

We've known each other since high school and since I started out doing photography Melissa has followed my journey and been in front of my lens a couple of times over the years. So it's pretty blimin' exciting that Melissa is now getting married & I get to photograph her again alongside her sweetheart, Kieran!

A couple of weeks ago we met up in Mandeville for an engagement shoot and visited Melissa's family cribs there too, tucked away in a picturesque spot. Kieran and Melissa chose to be by the river for their engagement session because they often come down here with the dogs and go fishing. 

We had an absolute blast, shared lots of laughs, I got in some fur baby cuddles and we hit the jackpot when it comes to sunsets!

I absolutely loved these old family cribs. After a bit of exploring we headed over the bridge & to the river.

I love when my clients are up for anything! Let's go barefoot - okay! Jump in the freezing river - sure! ;-)

Family photo time with the fur babies! And there's always one that won't look at the camera ;-)

Who needs a stick to fetch, when you can carry a whole branch!?!

And in the last five minutes of shooting we got that magical sunset which made me jump up and down with excitement! My clients probably think I'm crazy sometimes, but hopefully in a good way!

Kieran & Melissa, I am so excited for your wedding! You two are definite cuties in front of the camera! But maybe don't tell Kieran I said that - guys never appreciate the cute word! ;-)

We had such a perfect evening hanging out with you guys and enjoyed getting to meet the pooches too! So glad you brought them along with you, made it extra fun & extra special!

Much love & appreciation, H.x
