Caitlin and Dennis are one of our amazing Mulberry & Sage 2020 couples, and we loved hanging out with them last Monday evening for one of the last beautiful quintessential Michigan autumn evenings to do their Clyde Engagement Photography Session. In fact, Caitlin and Dennis were one of our first 2020 couples booked, and have chosen the most popular date we’ve seen requested for the year so far: 10.10.20. Courtney has a family wedding that she is photographing that day out of state, so instead of tag-teaming the engagement session like we typically will do, it was just the three of us for the evening.

Caitlin and Dennis first heard about us from Caitlin’s sister, Lindsey. who owns a local posed newborn photography business. Since neither Courtney nor I specialize in posed studio newborn sessions, we always refer those type of inquiries out to other photographers from our network, and Lindsey is always on that referral list. Her sister Caitlin was in the market for a local wedding photographer, and Lindsey sent her our way, and we’re so glad that she did. Caitlin and Dennis love the fall…hence their October 2020 wedding date. Getting engagement photos done in autumn was always the plan, and unlike most of the fall session we’ve done lately that have involved rain rescheduling, their scheduled date was seriously beautiful. They fell in love with the Clyde location that we use often, and we spent last Monday evening traipsing around the woods, hanging out, playing fun prompting type games, and documenting their love and love story. The overlook was beautiful as always, but *my* favorite photos are actually the set from down by the river, because of the brightly colored trees by them, and the large pine trees. I always feel like I’ve stepped foot into a different state when I look down the river there. What makes it extra special is that Dennis told us both that he knew the area; he grew up going hunting down the road with his Dad, but had never explored through this particular section before.

We hope you enjoy this glimpse into Caitlin and Dennis’ Clyde Engagement Photography Session. Our November is fairly open, if you’re looking to get some outdoor engagement photos done before the snow starts falling. (Honestly, we can’t wait for that, though!) Contact us here.
