Picture this: A sun-dappled path winding through lush greenery, the soft rustle of leaves in the breeze, and two hearts beating as one. Welcome to a magical engagement session at the breathtaking Hershey Botanical Gardens!

As traveling wedding photographers, we had the incredible privilege of capturing Sarah and Michael's love story amidst the stunning backdrop of this horticultural paradise. From the moment we met this adorable couple, we knew their session would be something truly special.

A Garden of Love

The Hershey Botanical Gardens provided the perfect canvas for our artistic vision. With its diverse collection of flora and picturesque landscapes, every corner offered a new opportunity to showcase Sarah and Michael's unique bond. We began our journey through the gardens, stopping at the vibrant butterfly atrium. The delicate creatures fluttering around the couple seemed to mirror the butterflies of excitement in their hearts. Sarah's laughter as a monarch landed on Michael's shoulder was a moment of pure, unscripted joy that we were thrilled to capture.

Moments in Bloom

As we strolled through the rose garden, the sweet fragrance of blooming flowers filled the air. We caught Michael stealing glances at Sarah, his eyes full of adoration. These candid moments are what we live for – the real, raw emotions that tell the true story of a couple's love. The Japanese Garden offered a serene setting for more intimate portraits. The couple's reflection in the koi pond, framed by weeping willows, created a dreamlike image that perfectly encapsulated their tranquil love.

Love in Focus

Our approach to this engagement session, as with all our photography, was to blend artistry with authenticity. We guided Sarah and Michael into natural poses that allowed their personalities to shine through, while also capturing the stunning details of the gardens. From wide-angle shots showcasing the grandeur of the conservatory to close-ups of Sarah's ring nestled in a bed of vibrant petals, every image was carefully composed to tell a part of their story.

A Prelude to Forever

As the golden hour approached, we made our way to the Great Garden. The warm light filtering through the trees created a magical glow, perfect for those romantic, soft-focus shots that make hearts melt. Sarah and Michael, silhouetted against the setting sun, shared a kiss that seemed to stop time – a beautiful prelude to their upcoming wedding day.
