Julianna and Kyle Engagement

Julianna and Kyle Engagement

Some couples just make it easy. You show up to a session, and it instantly feels like hanging out with friends. That’s how it was with Julianna and Kyle, a recently engaged couple who radiate calm, laughter, and genuine love for each other.

They’re the kind of couple who make the most of everyday life—walking their dogs around the neighborhood, catching a drink at a local bar, or exploring the heart of downtown Kansas City to try a new spot to eat. Their dogs weren’t in this shoot, but they came up in conversation like they were part of the family (because they are). It’s that kind of connection—to each other and the life they’ve built—that we love capturing in our Kansas City engagement photo and video sessions.

Two Backdrops, One Beautiful Story

This engagement session was split between two classic Kansas City locations that couldn’t be more different—but worked together perfectly.

We started at the WWI Memorial, one of our go-to spots for elevated skyline engagement photos. The open space, timeless architecture, and views of downtown KC gave us plenty to work with. But honestly? These two didn’t need much. Their energy together was magnetic. There’s something about being with someone who knows how to make you laugh even when you're freezing or fixing a windblown strand of hair—and we caught a lot of those real, in-between moments.

After that, we moved into a more traditional, wooded area—all soft light, warm tones, and quiet space to just breathe. It's in those moments, when you're walking a path or leaning in for a hug, that you realize how powerful this season is. Engagement isn’t just a formality—it’s a chapter worth remembering.

Real Connection, Real Moments

We always say we’re not here to create someone else’s version of your story. We’re here to capture yours, exactly as it is—laid back, meaningful, and rooted in connection.

They are a perfect example of the couples we love working with. They’re not chasing trends or overly curated moments—they’re just being present with each other, valuing where they are in life, and choosing to document it in a way that reflects who they are.

That’s our sweet spot. Whether you’re out in downtown Kansas City, walking through the woods hand-in-hand, or just wanting something relaxed that still feels polished—we’re all in.
