Meet Jolyne and Greg!! These high school sweethearts are just about as cute as a couple can possibly be. We had a great time getting to know them a little bit during their engagement session! They were both born and raised in Tonawanda, which is where their love story starts; so, naturally, their session was all about Tonawanda!
We started out the session with a few fabulous portraits of Jolyne and Greg with their “fur kids!” We love dogs a ton, so it’s always a treat when our couples include them. :)
Look at that face!!! OMG, she is ridiculously cute!
Our plan was to hit up Canal Fest, but on our way there, we stopped by the river to grab a few shots there.
L-O-V-E!!
We were lucky enough to be near the water at the most perfect time of day – the light was AMAZING (and these two are too cute for words).

Jolyne’s dad has a sweet boat docked right near where we were going, so we decided to stop and grab a few shots there, too! This one’s pretty fun! :)


Then, we entered the Canal Fest craziness…
…but, clearly, it was worth it…
…to get shots like these!! ”Kissing on top of the ferris wheel” shot? CHECK.
We walked around the back of the ferris wheel, and happened to bump into a classic car show. Loving the color of this truck!
We played around with some slow exposures for a few…I loved this one of Ben’s. It’s different, and cool, and definitely a picture I wish I had of us. :)
Our very last stop on the Tonawanda tour, was this fabulous alley. The block glass was a major win (as was this adorable “un-posed” pose)!
Jolyne and Greg – have we expressed enough that we think you’re a ridiculously adorable couple?? You guys are just waaaaay too cute together, and we honestly cannot wait to shoot your wedding! :)
