Some couples make taking photos look effortless—and Lily + Kolby are definitely one of those couples. Their Ohio engagement session was full of laughter, movement, and the kind of playful moments that make you forget you’re even in front of a camera.
From walking hand-in-hand through the flowers to giving each other piggyback rides, these two brought so much personality to their engagement photos. And honestly? Those are my favorite kinds of sessions to photograph as an Ohio engagement photographer.
Engagement photos don’t have to feel stiff or overly posed. In fact, I think the best engagement photography happens when you can simply be yourselves.
Lily + Kolby completely embraced that idea.
They laughed, played, ran around, and spent their Ohio engagement session simply enjoying each other. There were plenty of beautiful portraits, but some of my favorite images were the ones where they were moving, laughing, and being a little silly together.
Those are the moments that feel the most like them.
One of my favorite things about engagement photography is capturing all of those little in-between moments.
A laugh that happens between poses.
A quick kiss.
The way one person looks at the other when they aren’t paying attention.
A spontaneous piggyback ride that turns into one of your favorite photos.
Lily + Kolby gave us so many of those moments, and they made this engagement session feel incredibly natural. Their connection was easy to see, which made photographing them such a joy.
If you’re worried about feeling awkward in front of the camera, let Lily + Kolby’s engagement photos be your reminder that you don’t have to know exactly what you’re doing!
You don’t need to show up knowing where to put your hands or how to pose. That’s what your photographer is there for.
Instead, focus on your person.
Laugh together. Walk around. Hold hands. Give them a piggyback ride. Whisper something ridiculous in their ear.
The more you let yourselves relax and have fun, the more your engagement photos will actually feel like you.
Beautiful photos are wonderful, but my goal as an Ohio engagement photographer is to create images that bring you right back to how this season of your life actually felt.
For Lily + Kolby, that meant capturing their playful personalities just as much as the sweet, romantic moments between them.
That’s what made their engagement session so special. These photos aren’t just beautiful—they feel like them.
If you’re recently engaged and looking for an Ohio engagement photographer, your session should feel like a fun date—not a photoshoot you have to stress about.
Whether you’re naturally playful like Lily + Kolby or a little more reserved, we’ll find the moments that feel like you. I’ll guide you when you need direction, give you prompts that feel natural, and make sure you have plenty of space to simply enjoy being together.
Because years from now, I want you to look back at your engagement photos and remember not only how you looked, but how much fun you had together.
Lily + Kolby, thank you for trusting me to capture this season of your story! I had the best time running around, laughing, and documenting all of the fun along the way. I can’t wait for what comes next! 🤍
