Romantic Sunflower Field Engagement Session in Calvert County, Maryland
Maggie and Nick's engagement session in Calvert County was pure Southern Maryland magic—the kind where late September sunshine drips like honey over a sunflower field, and joy feels like it's floating in the air. Imagine blooms as tall as dreams, laughter echoing through the golden haze, and two people who were basically the definition of 'meant to be.' If you've ever wondered what it's like to accidentally wander onto the set of a romantic country music video, this was that moment. Cue the acoustic guitar and a soft breeze for extra effect.
These two brought all the vibes. There were twirls that caught the light just right, kisses tucked between sunflower stems, and so many giggles that I’m convinced we startled the bees. Maggie and Nick's connection is easy, fun, and full of that belly-laugh kind of love that makes you smile just watching it happen.
For me, this session wasn’t just about getting the perfect shots (though, spoiler alert, we totally did). It was about capturing the real, goofy, genuine love these two share. The side glances, the moments where one of them burst into laughter, the way they held onto each other like they were home. That’s the kind of love that deserves to be celebrated, photographed, and remembered.
And can we take a second to appreciate Maggie? Once a star on my Core Team when I was a youth minister, I knew she was special from the moment I met her. Getting to be part of her journey now, watching her and Nick step into this next chapter together, feels like such an honor.
I can’t wait to capture their wedding next month in St. Mary's County, Maryland—because if their engagement session is anything to go by, it’s going to be one for the books.
