Capturing love at Sweetwater Wetlands Preserve: an Enchanting Engagement Session
I met Amanda and Scott at a wedding expo that was being held at The Saguaro Buttes. I had never done an expo and was on the fence about doing this at all…I was nervous but I decided to do it anyways.
I had a drawing for someone to win a free photo session; whether they used it for a family, maternity; whatever they wanted. Amanda and Scott were the winners and wanted to get engagement photos done. They are having their wedding at The Saguaro Buttes, and the venue provides a photographer for the day. So they weren’t able to get any engagement photos done.
After several emails back and forth, Amanda and I decided to do their session at Sweetwater Wetlands Preserve.
As a photographer, every session holds its unique charm, but some locations have a magical quality that enhances the love between couples.
