Mollie & Drew’s Little Rock Engagement session is everything my sunshine, pastel, light and airy photographer loving heart dreams are made of! (I hope that all made sense – I don’t even know. You get what I’m sayin’ 😂) The weather was perfect, their outfits were my favorite, and we spent the evening creating the most dreamy, sun drenched images!
For the proposal, Drew had a carefully crafted plan to throw her off guard — what she thought was a fun day at the races in Hot Springs with her brother, his girlfriend, and Drew quickly turned into something much more memorable. Even though she had a few suspicions, casual comments like “Dad’s hunting and got a huge deer” and “Let’s go to Deluca’s in Little Rock after” kept her guessing.
On the drive home, her brother suggested stopping by the house to change clothes — and that’s when everything started to click. Drew asked her to come with him, and as they walked toward the backyard, she saw a beautiful path lined with glowing luminaries leading to a fire, with twinkling lights strung above. That’s where he got down on one knee and proposed.
Afterward, she walked into her parents’ home to find a familiar face — a close family friend and photographer capturing the moment. Family quickly surrounded them with hugs, and soon after, friends from all over, including her best friend who flew in from D.C., began arriving to celebrate. It was everything she could have dreamed of — and more.
I can’t wait for their wedding this October at Cold Springs Events (one of my favorite Central Arkansas wedding venues.) Congrats to Mollie & Drew – and I can’t wait to see you guys again in a few short months!
