Today I'll be featuring two adorable engagement shoots from Heather H Photography, in Tuscaloosa, AL. I just love how each of Heather's sessions are so creative and include such fun props. While I do feel props can be overdone, especially for bride and groom portraits and day after shoots, I think it's totally fun to go a little on the silly side and have loads of fun for the engagement photos. So... take a break from all the wedding planning and just have a blast together getting your engagement photos taken. The following couple, Drew and Rachel, first took their photos in a cotton field that Heather found and then they had a little picnic with cupcakes and old coca-cola bottles. So cute!

Be sure to come back a little later this morning to see another fun engagement session from Heather H Photography. You can see more of Drew and Rachel's engagement session here.

Today's Real Engagement shoot of Rachael and Stephen was sent to me from Kerry Brooks Photography in Huntsville, Alabama. Kerry says that he knew just the place to take the couple when Rachael said she wanted an industrial, urban setting. The backdrops for the photos are spectacular and I love Rachael's red shoes! And, their dog that joined them {as you'll see in the first two shots} is just adorable.

Today's Real Engagement shoot is from Rebecca Photographer {wedding and portrait photographer based in Vancouver and the Lower Mainland, BC} and it's one of Rebecca's favorites from her fall sessions. It's a lovely fall shoot that took place at Vandusen Botanical Garden. The fall colors are just beautiful and perfectly frame the couple, Emily and Paul.

Thank you Rebecca for sending me this gorgeous fall engagement shoot to share with my readers today {to see more photos from this session, please click here}. To see more photos from Rebecca Photographer, please visit her web site/blog. You can also find Rebecca on twitter: @rebeccadj

And, be sure to head over to the Wedding Edibles section today for another photo from Rebecca that features a unique alternative to cocktail hour.

Today I am featuring two weddings and an engagement session from Erin and Randy of He & She Photography. You can see the earlier wedding of Mike and Danielle featured here. Before I feature the stunning wedding with the purple, black and white color scheme, I'd like to share with you the evening engagement shoot of Casey and Emily at the University of Redlands {they met on campus as students and wanted to revisit it for their engagement session}.
I'm loving the curves in the photo below, it's so perfect in black and white.
Be sure to come back in a little bit when I will be featuring an absolutely beautiful wedding that took place in La Jolla, CA.
