Reena and Dylan Engagement Session | Long Island Wedding Photographer

Every time I go to Planting Fields Arboretum, I find something new. There are so many details throughout the property that are absolutely stunning. From the architecture to the open fields to the gardens, it really is such an amazing place. That is why I was so excited when Reena and Dylan chose Planting Fields as the location for their engagement session. 

We started at some of the architectural features of Coe Hall. I love the natural framing elements in their covered walkway. It is so easy to forget that you are on Long Island. The colors on Reena’s dress were incredible!

I really valued the time I spent with Reena and Dylan. Spending time with a couple before their wedding is so important, and that is why I include an engagement session with every package I offer. It gives me the opportunity to go over posing as well as other details that will make their wedding imagery look amazing - all with no timeline to worry about! 

In addition to learning about how to be in front of the camera, you will end up with imagery that you can use throughout your engagement - including save-the-date-cards, your wedding website and social media. 

After our time around the building, we went to the Italian Garden. No matter the time of year, the gardens on this property are beautiful. This session was in late fall, and I love how the neutral palette provides some great texture while allowing Reena and Dylan to stand out. 

After a quick outfit change, we started walking throughout the property for some images with more natural elements. Soon after we started, we encountered some light rain. So we took up some space underneath a willow tree and made the best of our time. 

As the rain grew stronger, we went back to some covered areas of the property where we were able to finish our session. 

Reena and Dylan were absolutely so much fun to work with, and I can’t wait for their wedding.
