Ashley & Tristan = Field Engagement Session!

Field Engagement Session | Ashley & Tristan | November 1, 2022

Y’all…. Ashley & Tristan’s Engagement Session was an absolute DREAM to photograph! I was literally in photographer HEAVEN with these two!!!

Even though it’s November, they didn’t want a traditional “fall” backdrop! We usually like to do the scouting for sessions ourselves so it’s more in our “control” – but Tristan & Ashley did all the research themselves and found this field for us! It was PERFECT, without the traditional red/orange leaves – and the sunlight streamed through the trees in the most glowy way!!! I was so excited to see it in person!

Ashley worked hard to find the most beautiful sets of outfits for them – so classic, yet unique textures – and the colors were so perfect for the field setting! After many youtube tutorials, she also did her OWN makeup (and hair!) and she looked stunning. Both sets of earrings are also handmade by Ashley – she has her own business that she opened in 2019 making beautiful earrings of all kinds & styles (follow @downing.designs on Instagram to see her earrings & shop her next popup!)

Ashley initially told us that Tristan doesn’t like getting photos taken… but he absolutely KILLED his part of the session. He was such a good sport, so sweet, up for all my ideas – and just the sweetest! I told Tristan that he had sneakily “underpromised” and totally “OVERdelivered”!!! I was so proud of him – knowing how much taking photos are NOT his thing!

They both made my job so easy – by being so kind & sweet, patient with all my spontaneous thoughts, and making ME feel like they were having fun! What a DREAM they both are!!!

We had the best time with Tristan & Ashley, and I can’t wait to share lots more favorites with you guys on the blog below! ENJOY!!!
