Early Spring Engagement Photos at Airlie Gardens in Wilmington, NC

3/25/2024

Airlie Gardens is such a beautifully versatile location for portraits!! I keep finding new angles I love every time I return. It was just two weeks after Anya initially reached out about her wedding that we met up for their engagement pictures and I was thrilled it worked for both of our schedules to meet so soon, because Airlie at the blush of Spring is dreamyyy.

Charlie and Anya photographed beautifully together… I’m honestly amazed how quickly so many couples (who haven’t had their photos taken in YEARS!) adapt to being in front of the camera and following direction so naturally. It’s such a perfect opportunity before the wedding day to get comfortable with the process and the reward is HIGH… I mean, just look at these pictures of the two of them they get to frame on their walls!!!

I’m going to be looking forward to their Oceanic wedding all summer long… happy for you, Charlie & Anya!!

Want to see another engagement session? I’m obsessed with how these seaside portraits turned out for one of my couples from Manchester, England…
