Goodness gracious, spring is officially here, and that means our engagement shoot season is now in FULL swing, and our wedding season will be too, as well! How fun! We got to host our very first workshop EVER this past week, and during the planning stages for The Spark Retreat, we put out a model call on social media as a workshop for couples for our styled shoots! We ended up with two shoots- a styled wedding (see it here!) and this engagement session, and it couldn’t have been more perfect. One of our ADORABLE couples for 2018, these sweet people, immediately reached out and said they’d love to be a part… and here we are! How amazing is that?! These two took off work, planned outfits with us, and gave up so much time to help us teach some amazing photographers all about posing naturally, directing authentically, keeping clients feeling comfortable, working with light, and most of all, having an absolute blast while photographing your clients!

Also, Mallory’s hair and makeup was done by the amazing Moda Salon & Spa… didn’t it turn out absolutely amazing?! SO perfect for this sweet shoot! Mallory and Eric have their second engagement shoot coming up in a few months, and if this little session was ANY indication of how amazing that shoot is going to be, we already cannot wait. 😉 Mallory and Eric, thank you both so much for taking the time out of your busy lives to join us at The Spark Retreat! We truly could not have done it without you and we are SO thankful to have you guys as a part of the Caitlin & Luke Bride & Groom family! Your next engagement shoot will be here before you even know it, and before long, your wedding will be too, which is just SO fun. We adore you two! Enjoy a little peek into some of our very favorites from your engagement session at The Spark Retreat!!

Xoxo!!
