Haley & Sean = Engagement Session!

Engagement Session  |  Haley & Sean  |  April 13, 2022

It’s always fun to have “firsts” – so Haley & Sean’s Engagement Session at The Cornealius Properties was such a fun challenge shooting somewhere completely NEW! Sean and Haley love this location so much that they chose it for their Engagement Session, future Bridal Session, and their wedding day!! We’d heard SO MANY good things about The Cornealius Properties (and of course saw the viral TikTok of the Birdsong Chapel) so we were pumped to finally see it in person for ourselves! 🙂

From the first time we met Sean and Haley, we just loved them! Haley is gorgeous, talented & smart – and Sean isn’t only hardworking & smart, he’s also just a GEM. In fact, in big, bold letters in my notes after our initial meeting I wrote “HE’S SO SWEET”! We couldn’t wait to see them again at a place that will be a special part of their love story. 🙂

Leading up to their Engagement Session, I was watching the weather and it was forecasting completely cloudy. I felt bad since Haley was hoping for sunshine – BUT THEN we showed up to their session and the WHOLE SESSION WAS SUNNY!!!! YAY!!! We were so happy for them!!!! It was also a warm 85º North Carolina day – so we totally sweated in that bright sunshine but I think it was really worth it. 🙂

Phillip and I got to The Cornelius Properties early so we could look around – and it’s such an impressive place. So much thought and detail went into all the design decisions and the owners are so kind and hands-on. We met Don and Brooke and they’re so down to earth!

For the session – we had the best time with Haley and Sean! Even though Haley is a nurse – she could also be a professional makeup artist! She’s SO talented, and did her own glam for the session! She’s just stunning! I loved the blue dress she chose – and the fact that Haley wore stilettos out in the country was SO impressive! Sean looked so handsome in his button-down and was amazing to photograph! He helped me with fixing Haley’s hair and I loved his attention to detail & how he’d sweetly fix her hair after a gust of wind so it would look good. The world needs more Seans!!!

We had the best afternoon exploring around The Cornelius Properties with these two! I can’t wait for ya’ll to see my favorites from Haley & Sean’s session below! ENJOY!!!! 🙂
