Middle Creek Wildlife Engagement Session

Oct 15, 2021

Middle Creek Wildlife Engagement Session

Non-stop laughter is the first thing I think about when it comes to Hannah and Dylan’s Middle Creek Wildlife engagement session. Endless giggles. Roaring laughter. Contagious chuckles. Any synonym that has to do with laughter perfectly describes this session with these two!

My cheeks hurt by the end, and I was behind the camera!

Hannah and Dylan have so much energy and are seriously up for anything. They do everything with the biggest smile and always a giggle or two! It seriously just puts a smile on your face right away! I think though, the love between the two of them shines even brighter than their positive energy.

It’s contagious!

Any chance they could get they were sneaking glances at each other. Grabbing on to each other’s hands. Or sharing a quick little kiss! It was just so special to see that love and connection between two people! Plus, they were just so easy to talk to. I know I say it often, but it honestly felt like we were old friends catching up after a few years apart!

It was like we picked right back up where we left off!

Also, let me talk to you about this location. Seriously, these two crushed the session. From the perfect outfits to incredible personalities to the location, it just kept getting better and better. Hannah reached out to me once their date was set and offered up Middle Creek Wildlife Management Area. I had only known of this place as where all the white geese land each year. I had never been there, though!

Holy smokes, I have been missing out!

This place is beautiful! Especially with all the fall leaves changing! For the first half of the session, we never even left the parking lot area of the visitor center! The tall grasses and changing leaves were just breathtaking! It gave them so much variety before we even headed over to the lake.

Which is typically the focal point of this place!

No matter where we went, it was stunning! And their outfits perfectly complemented the surrounding area and allowed them to pop right off the background! This is definitely being added to the list for location suggestions! Plus, there is a really good ice cream shop on the way, so that is an extra bonus for when I go!

Hannah and Dylan, your Middle Creek Wildlife engagement session was one for the books! I know I just obsessed over the location, but you two seriously stole the show! I can’t get over how much laughter we had the entire time. Sometimes, we didn’t even know what we were laughing at!

I loved it!

I can’t wait for your wedding next year at Melhorn Manor! It is going to be so amazing, and I’m already guessing, filled with so much laughter! I hope you enjoy these favorites as much as I do! Can’t wait for you to see the full gallery very soon!

XOXO ~ Heather Marie
