Norfolk Photographer - Pagoda Oriental Garden Engagement Session

I hope you are all safe and well! It has been a difficult few weeks, but I thought it was high time I shared some of the images I was able to capture before the Governor’s Stay at Home Order was issued.

Aimee and Kyle are both in the Navy and stationed in Norfolk. They are recently engaged and looking forward to planning a Hampton Roads wedding in the coming months!

I am grateful that we were able to go ahead with their Norfolk waterfront engagement session. We met at the Oriental Pagoda and Gardens to take advantage of the variety of scenery and urban vibe downtown.

From the garden, we headed to the quaint cobblestone streets of the Freemason District. I love this charming neighborhood year round, but the early spring blooms made it even more lovely this time of year!

We were able to cover quite a bit of territory during out shoot, which made for a nice array of scenery in their final gallery.

Aimee and Kyle opted for a quick wardrobe change before we walked over to the heart of downtown for some shots at dusk.

The city was actually bustling with activity that night. I think everyone was out for one last hurrah before businesses were shut down to take out only.

Aimee and Kyle had been a little nervous before our shoot, but laughed most of the way through and later told me it was the perfect way to spend a date night out!

I was thrilled that they had such a great time, and that we were able to get their photos done for their save the dates!

Congrats Aimee & Kyle! I’m excited for your future together, and I can’t wait to hear more about your wedding plans! - XOXOX, Melissa
