whitney & aaron – dallas/fort worth engagement photographer – melissa zihlman

Whitney and Aaron are set to be married in just two weeks…which means this “engagement” session is a little late! LOL!  These Baylor Bears have a been spending a great deal of time apart as Aaron played professional basketball in his home country of Australia last winter.  There is such an amazing connection between them, one that you cannot fake for the camera…just that special something that makes people stop and look in their direction (and you can bet we had plenty of that today!).

We started in Deep Ellum…casual and fun, where anything goes.  Then headed to downtown Dallas and on to this insanely gorgeous field of wheat growing down the road from their house – it was the perfect day for this type of session, and as you can see we weren’t short on emotion…be prepared to be overloaded, I had the hardest time narrowing it down!

Thanks Whit and Aaron for a great afternoon…hope dinner was great!  Can’t wait to capture the big day!:)
