Hello, friends! Heritage Prairie Farm just might be my new favorite spot to take engagement photos. Last weekend, I had the pleasure of spending the evening with Maddy, Adam, Lucy and Ferris. This sweet little family of four and I explored the grounds at Heritage Prairie Farm while I captured some special moments of their family. Hope you all enjoy this Heritage Prairie Farm Engagement Session!
I met Maddy on a snowy winter day back in January. I remember meeting her for the first time to talk about her wedding in June. Since we were both new Mom’s we talked a lot about sleepless nights, teething and how fast our little ones have grown! She had such a glow on her face as she talked about Ferris, Lucy and Adam. I couldn’t wait to meet them all in person.
When we were planning a spot for their engagement session, Maddy choose Heritage Prairie Farm, since Adam grew up in a farming town in Illinois. Plus this was the perfect spot for their casual cool family vibe. Adam is a drummer in a band so this family gets lots of cool cred.
The most beautiful thing about this night was capturing the love and joy shared between this family.
I loved seeing Lucy be such a good big sister as she doted on little Ferris. One of my favorite moments was taking photos of Lucy and Maddy. When I asked for a kiss on the cheek. They both turned, kissed and giggled so much! It was such a sweet moment, I’m so happy to have captured.
After some photos with Lucy and Ferris, Grandma and Grandpa kept the kids entertained while I snuck off with Maddy and Adam for some engagement photos. I’m so glad they did as these photos are crazy gorgeous. Adam and Maddy shared some tender moments together enjoying the quiet peaceful farm.
Maddy, Adam, Lucy and Ferris, thank you so much for spending your Sunday evening with me! I can’t wait to do this all over again on your wedding day! You have such a beautiful and loving family. I hope you love your Heritage Prairie Farm engagement session photos!
xx,
Lisa
