Let’s be real: engagement sessions get a bad rep. People imagine stiff poses, fake smiles, and awkward moments where you’re told to “act natural” in front of a lens. Not the vibe, right?

But what if it could be something totally different? What if your engagement session in Detroit felt more like a spontaneous date night — one where you're just being yourselves, laughing, flirting, exploring — and someone’s just there capturing the magic?

That’s exactly the kind of experience I offer. So let's turn Your Engagement Session into more like ultimate date night (and less like a photoshoot) Detroit, Novi, Northville or wherever.

Picture This…

Turn Your Engagement Session into More Like Ultimate Date Night (And Less Like a Photoshoot) Detroit, Novi, Northville or wherever

You're strolling through downtown Detroit just before sunset. The light is golden, your partner’s hand is warm in yours, and you’re reminiscing about your first date or your weird inside jokes. There’s no pressure to “perform.” It just feels like the two of you doing what you do best — being yourselves, together.

That’s the energy I create during every engagement session. Whether we’re chasing light in the city, tucked into a cozy coffee shop, or wandering through a park in Northville, it’s all about letting the real stuff shine through.

Pick a Spot That Tells Your Story

We can absolutely hit some of Detroit’s iconic spots — Parkers Alley, Belle Isle, the Riverfront — but I’m just as excited about those little personal places: the rooftop you love, the neighborhood you walk every weekend, the lake where you got engaged. The more it means to you, the more the photos will mean later.

Dress Like You’re Going Somewhere Fun (Because You Are)

This isn’t a fashion shoot, but it’s still a good excuse to get dressed up just enough to feel special. Think of it like dressing for the third date where you’re trying to impress and feel comfortable. Something flattering, fun, and totally you.

Need help choosing what to wear? I’ve got you. Bring a second outfit if you want to switch up the vibe — dressy to casual is a popular (and super cute) combo.

Skip the Posing Stress — I Got You

You do not have to know what to do with your hands. You don’t even have to look at the camera half the time. I’ll guide you in a way that’s low-key, natural, and never forced. We’ll keep things moving and casual — no weird prom poses, I promise.

The best photos always happen between the “posed” moments anyway. A glance, a laugh, a forehead touch that wasn’t planned? That’s the gold.

Make It a Whole Night

Here’s the move: schedule your session for golden hour and then plan dinner or drinks after. You’ll already be dressed up and riding that post-photo-session high — why not keep the vibe going? Some couples even bring a bottle of champagne to pop mid-session (10/10 would recommend).

Real Love, Real Moments

The engagement season of your life goes fast. This session is your chance to slow down, soak it in, and make memories that aren’t just about wedding planning. It’s about you two, right now, just as you are.

Whether we shoot in Detroit, Novi, Northville or somewhere totally off the map, let’s make it feel like an adventure — not an appointment.
