Leah and Derek’s Engagement session at Lake Norman

Share

Over the past few years, I’ve gotten to know Leah’s family pretty well.  Since I’ve had the pleasure of photographing two of her cousins’ weddings, Leah and Derek’s engagement session wasn’t the first chance I’ve had to capture their closeness and love for one another. So when I arrived at their Lake Norman home, I wasn’t at all surprised that they wanted to include the entire family in their portraits.  We had such a wonderful day together, and I can’t wait to see them again on their wedding day.  This family knows how to have a good time, and their weddings are always amazing events.Happy family with dog enjoying a picnic outdoors by the lake
