Favorite Engagement Sessions from 2011

I love engagement sessions! A chance to capture some gorgeous photos of you and your honey before the big day. Some couples go all out, some prefer to keep the focus just on them and a stunning location. Today I’m sharing some of my favorites from 2011…

Hong Kong Engagement Photos photographed by Simply Bloom Photography. Engagement photos aren’t as popular in Hong Kong, but this lovely couple wanted sweet photos of their own, so they flew Simply Bloom to Hong Kong to capture their love. I just love the locations they selected + their fun style!
