NCMA Engagement

Raleigh, NC Engagement Photos

I had the absolute best time photographing Samantha and Juan during their engagement session. This couple was the first couple that I photographed since quarantine started, and it could not have gone any better! I surprised myself by withstanding their entire session with a mask on. Definitely weird to wear in this new state of things, but doable.

Samantha and Juan wanted to have their engagement photos done at the NCMA (North Carolina Museum of Art), and I was so happy that they did! This place is an absolute beauty. Although the inside portion of the museum is closed, their beautiful grounds are still open to the public. We started off their engagement session nearest to the mirror pond, then shifted our way to the gorgeous side entrance of the museum. Both of these areas are fantastic for images as the mirror pond reflects that big beautiful sky that was present on their day, and the side area hosted an abundance of shade for them.

After a quick outfit changed, we walked the grounds behind the museum and visited those great icons at the NCMA, like those gorgeous and massive 3 rings (also known as Gyre) and beautiful willow trees. It was a site to see and made my heart swell seeing these two together. It was a great day all around, and I am excited that I had the chance to meet such a great pair.

Congratulations, Samantha and Juan!
