Cozy Joshua Tree Love Session: Joy + Jeffrey

joshua tree engagement

Joy + Jeffrey had one of those crazy, love at first sight sensations when they first met. And even after heading down a rocky path for a while, which led them through a brief break-up, they both knew that they were always meant to be together. Fast forward several years, and these two lovebirds have a sweet, little daughter named Hazel and write music and play in a band together for a living! To celebrate all of the good things they’ve accomplished together, they decided to head out to Joshua Tree with Stephanie Williams of This Modern Romance for a fun, little love session! Love how their images turned out – and a great reminder to take time to capture your love after the wedding day too! :)

Joy + Jeffrey’s cool, yet relaxed, style is a perfect compliment to the beautiful + barren desert landscape. And her mustard yellow skirt is so, so pretty!

I’m also super excited to tell you lovelies that Stephanie has a brand new book out that is all about shooting engagement sessions! This Modern Romance: The Artistry, Technique, and Business of Engagement Photography is not only a gorgeous book, but it provides photographer’s with vital information + insight about creating a successful career. We LOVE Stephanie’s engagement shoots – they are always so super romantic – so this should be a great resource for other photographers out there looking to shoot engagement sessions that have a more editorial feel and really show the love between the couples. I even added some quotes to the book too about trends in engagement photos. :)

Thanks so much This Modern Romance for sharing Joy + Jeffery’s gorgeous love session with us today!
