Black Bayou Engagement Pictures | Katelyn & Chase

August 24, 2024

Katelyn, Chase, and I actually met a few years back at Katelyn’s friend and Chase’s sister’s wedding. Did I lost you?! It was a pleasure to meet them again and have the honor to photograph their engagement pictures.

We met at Black Bayou and had such fun conversation with them – while taking at minimum 3 good photos (inside joke!). We had a party crasher while at the water’s edge and he or she made the cut to be included in this gallery… here are a few of my favorites ~
