I was so excited for Emily and Gina’s Vermont fall engagement shoot. They were down to go with the flow, meet after a storm, walk through wet grass, dodge cars on a bridge for the perfect dip pic and show off their wild love in front of the camera.

If you’re a photographer, you know the feeling of driving by a location and thinking “WOW, I want to take pictures there.” If you’re not a photographer but you are super into the gram, maybe you know the feeling as more of a “WOW, I wanna be in pictures there.” Or, photography and Instagram aside, maybe you just can recognize a beautiful place when you see one?

As 3/3 of of those ☝️ people, the “pretty barn on the side of the road” (that is what I called it in my head) in Enosburg, Vermont was calling my name.

I think I literally asked them, “I’ve been driving to Jay Peak a lot recently and keep passing a really pretty barn. It is next to the rail trail so I’m pretty sure it is fair game. Wanna go there?”

(Thank goodness) they were down and it was fair game.

There is nothing quite like a Vermont fall engagement. Even though we missed peak foliage by a few weeks, there were still plenty of colors, beautiful golden light!
