Hannah and Rob’s laurel hall engagement session last night was just extra special for a couple reasons. First, yesterday was exactly one year until their wedding day. We took their engagement photos on June 20, 2019, and their wedding day will be on June 20, 2020. The second reason their engagement session was uniquely cool was that we took all of their engagement photos at their wedding venue! They’ll be getting married at Laurel Hall as well. And in less than a year as of today!

While I was taking Hannah and Rob’s engagement photos and we were chatting, Hannah asked me what my favorite wedding venue is, and I was completely honest when I said their venue, Laurel Hall is my absolute favorite! Laurel Hall is probably the venue I’ve had the opportunity to shoot weddings at the most frequently. We have so many beautiful wedding venues here in Indianapolis, and while sometimes I have the opportunity to shoot at one venue multiple times, a lot of the time I’m shooting at a new venue each Friday, Saturday, and Sunday during the busy wedding season. However, I usually get to shoot at least a few weddings per year at Laurel Hall, and I’m SO grateful that I do!

During last night’s stunning engagement session with this sweet and beautiful couple, we got to explore all of the parts of Laurel Hall where their wedding will be taking place. Their ceremony set up will be outside on the lawn, while their reception will be fully outside on the terrace with beautiful string lights. Hopefully we have better weather this time next year than we’ve been having this year. Dancing will take place in my favorite room at Laurel Hall, the solarium!

One of my favorite things about Hannah and Rob’s engagement sessions is that they included their sweet dog, Miley. We took so many adorable photos with Miley, and she did such a good job behaving for photos, and looking at me when I needed her to. Hannah brought one of her maids of honor to help with Miley, and she also brought her parents, so they could look around the building to get ideas for the wedding next year. The seven of us had a blast at one of the best wedding venues in Indiana!

Hannah and Rob, your engagement session was so much fun, and I know your wedding day will be even more amazing! It is such an honor to be your wedding photographer! Enjoy these sneak peaks while I finish editing your engagement session gallery!!
