This engagement session is…stunning. Between the gorgeous couple, changing looks, and phenomenal light provided by the sunrise in Durham, I was smiling from ear to ear while I was piecing together Elayna and Kyle’s photos by Carolyn Marie Photography. I adore the way E + K look at each other, laugh together, and share romantic kisses. And I love their passion for travel. He’s from South Africa (where they met!), and they’re tying the knot in Portugal. I’m pretty much obsessed with these two and their level of comfort with and heart for each other.
A note from Carolyn: “I loved working with Elayna and Kyle! We decided to have their session at sunrise because of conflicting schedules and let me tell you…it was SO worth it. Any session that starts and ends with coffee is a win in my book. We started at West Point on the Eno in Durham, NC and moved from there to Cocoa Cinnamon for coffee to warm up. These two met in college in South Africa (where Kyle is from) and have spent lots of their relationship globetrotting and having adventures together. I love their adventurous spirits! They’re so comfortable with each other and they have a lovely, quiet romance about them when they’re together that just permeates all of their interactions. But they know how to have fun too! This session was as full of laughs and giggles as it was quiet kisses and soft looks, and these two made my job easy. I’m so excited to keep working with these two for their wedding in Lisbon, Portugal this summer.”

These two are beautiful and what a great location! Kind of reminds me of our treehouse shoot!
