Nikki + Chase are cute, but have you seen their pup Charlie?! I’m joking!… kind of ;)
We started our session at Robinette’s Apple Haus + Winery in Grand Rapids. The apples on the trees weren’t as big as we thought they were going to be, but that’s okay! The sun was coming through the trees perfectly though. Charlie didn’t want to sit for very long as their was a ton of space to run around and explore but we got her attention for a couple photos. And if anyone was around, they would’ve had a blast watching 3 girls try to get a dog to look up. We then went over to Provin Trails, which happened to be just down the road. In the middle of the trails is a sand dune with a gorgeous view. And I might have had them run part way up it… twice. Sorry guys!
Nikki told me about their engagement and I’m jealous! Back in February they went on a trip to South America. It was their last night there before heading back home. They were at a beautiful fountain in Santiago, Chile and Chase got down on one knee and asked Nikki to marry him. She was in complete shock as they had talked about getting married but she didn’t think it would happen when it did. Once she finally came back down from the clouds, she was so excited and couldn’t stop smiling!
When asked what their favorite part about being engaged was, they said:
The only advice I have is to go with the flow and enjoy this time! It is so special and goes by so fast, so there is no time to stress and be worried! Everything will end up working out.
I can’t wait to photograph their special day in November!
