I met Rachel & Dakota recently when they came to the studio to chat about their wedding plans, and I could tell instantly that they’re such a sweet couple. They’re planning to get married next fall on Rachel’s family’s farm, which I think will be SO special. Everything they told me about their vision for the day had me hooked, and most importantly: it was clear that they trusted me completely. So when I recommended we take their engagement photos on UGA’s campus to capitalize on the stunning fall colors, they were game!! And apparently Rachel’s family are big Dawg fans, so it works. :) We had so much fun together, and I love how their joy shines through these photos. Also, HOW CUTE ARE THEY?! Needless to say, I can’t wait for next October. Congrats, Rachel & Dakota, and thanks for taking me along on this journey!
