Wedding Photographers in London Ontario
| Kayla + Mac’s Rock Glen Engagement Session |

Engagements

Wedding photographers in London Ontario are BACK after a long few months! I kicked the ‘season’ off with Kayla and Mac’s engagement session at Rock Glen Conservation Area. I couldn’t have asked for anything more perfect!
 
These two were winners of a giveaway I did for Valentine’s Day. Kayla and Mac love spending time in nature together, so Rock Glen was the perfect fit… At least, after their original plans with the magnolias had to be rescheduled. They brought a picnic basket, some champagne, and some fresh strawberries. Truly making the session so unique to them. I loved it!
 
They were so easy-going in front of the camera, and an absolute delight to work with. Here’s a little bit of their story, from their perspective!

What were your first impressions when you met?

When we met, it was truly love at first sight! Kayla thought Mac was quite handsome and hilarious, and definitely was her person. Mac told Kayla the night they met that he knew that he’d never forget it.

What made you two connect so well in the beginning?

We got to talking about music, and found out we had the same favourite Arkells song, “Book Club”. We listened to it together the night we met. We also connected over our moms doing her doctorates at the same time at the same school.

Who said “I love you” first?

Kayla did! We had only been dating for a few weeks and we had been saying “I appreciate you” as a placeholder for a week or two. When you know you know!

What is your secret to a great relationship?

Find love with someone you could have fun at the grocery store with! Life is full of exciting things, but it’s best to enjoy the average everyday things with the one you love most.
