After the sweetest, most planned and thoroughly hidden proposal, it was time for more photo fun with these two lovebirds – time for the engagement session!

Cozy Beach Cottage and a ‘Trooper’

As I wanted to get to know them as a couple and how they are around each other, we planned the engagement session for Peyton and Addison. And let me tell you, when ‘beach’ and ‘doggie’ are in the same sentence (or session!) together… magic happens!

Peyton and Addison are huge animal lovers; it was a no-brainer that Addison’s chocolate lab Trooper was going to be part of this engagement photo shoot. You can absolutely tell his excitement by the massive yawn right as ‘mom and dad’ share a kiss ????

Cozy, fun, and involving Trooper the dogge – the future Waller home on Dauphin Island was the proper start to a really fun Sunday!

Ohhh, Beach Engagement in January?!

After a few photos with an understandably bored doggie, we headed outside. The January wind made its presence felt during the Pier portion of our shoot and made for some super cute fun wild hair photos!! Peyton’s cheerleading days also came in handy at one point… guess you can see why ????

Our next itinerary stop was the Audubon Bird Sanctuary. This little hidden gem on Dauphin Island made all of us long for summer, with its rich tropical greenery on the way to the beach. That’s where Peyton and Addison were feeling right at home. Did I mention they are both very outdoorsy? Fishing and hunting are just two things they are so incredibly passionate about!

Long leaf pine trees, wild beaches and the sweetest couple in the crisp winter sun. These were just what the doctor ordered on a quiet January Sunday!

Always love hanging out with these beautiful humans!
