Amanda & Nick | Engagement

November 22, 2011 · 22 Comments

Amanda & Nick travelled down to London from Bath for their engagement session, and Amanda certainly came well-prepared! I don’t think I’ve ever had such a huge selection of lovely props to choose from, so huge in fact that we decided to save some for the wedding day portraits. :D

We first met up at the deliciously pink Peggy Porschen shop in Belgravia for some equally delicious, not to mention photogenic, cakes. From there we headed to Green Park for fun with the beautiful autumn coloured leaves. The day was so lovely and crisp with some beautiful sunshine thrown in, but you could definitely sense winter, and dare I say it, Christmas, in the air (I think the amazing gingerbread house at Peggy Porschen helped with getting into the spirit too!).

I had such a good time with Amanda & Nick, and I can’t wait until next summer – judging by the amount of thought Amanda put into the engagement session, the wedding is going to be off the hook amazing! But yes, let’s in fact have that Christmas first…
