Engagements & Couples

Whether you just got engaged, are celebrating an anniversary or if this is your first time in front of a camera as a couple: I provide a custom and unique session experience. From the first time you reach out to long after your gallery is delivered, I am here to serve you, making sure you have a personalized, fun, stress free, luxury experience. With my personalized questionnaire, style guide and investment guide, you will have an abundance of education on how to prepare for your session and how I work as a photographer to maintain the best image quality for you. I am there with you every step of the way. If you have any questions like what colors look best together or where to find a dress, I am just an email away. I am all about making your hopes and goals for your session come to life. My style guide has everything you need to know about booking a session with me and so much more like when your session will start, what to wear, help selecting a location and even a printable checklist to help you stay organized and not forget a thing and so much more. I email a PDF copy of this once your session is booked.

During your session

I will have a premade shot list. This is customized to fit you and your partners relationship and personality so the poses will be hand selected by me based off of the information you provide me on your questionnaire and through our communications together. I like to mix traditional (both looking at me and smiling) posing with dreamy, romantic, artistic and fun posing (movement, laughter, silly prompts) to get you a variety of images in your final gallery and really showcase your love story without the forced camera smiles and stiff posing. I focus on getting a variety of tight, full body and environmental shots as well as vertical and horizontal shots. My goal for your session is to keep it fun and capture the joy and love you two have for each other.

If you are looking for an engagement photographer, be sure to let me know. There are a lot of benefits to hiring me as your wedding photographer vs. your engagement photographer. I would love to talk with you about all of the benefits so you can make the best decision for you!

Kind words


Desiree was so great to work with! Her communication was top notch, she made an effort to find exactly what we were looking for in our session, and above all she was so kind and patient with our kids! We would definitely recommend her and definitely use her again in the future.

Sadie

Desiree has been absolutely amazing to work with!  I originally booked her for a maternity shoot but sweet Sidney decided to come before we could make that happen.  Thankfully Desiree has been able to capture SO many precious moments since then!  She is makes photos comfortable, natural, and always so much fun!  I have and will continue to recommend her!  You will LOVE your photo sessions and photos.

Jasmine

Desiree is excellent! I had a friend give us the best compliment on Shannen’s seniors pictures - she said that she saw ALL of Shannen’s personality reflected in the pictures. What more could you ask for!?

Heidi

We had a lovely experience with Desiree this spring! She was so accommodating and helpful. The photos are gorgeous and exactly what we were hoping for.

Jessica

We had such a good experience getting our family photos with Desiree! She is so genuine and the pictures turned out amazing!
