Rapunzel

lindsey orton, along with a string of talented professionals, created a series of {absolutely} stunning bridal shoots all based around a princess theme. 

one of their beautiful princesses, rapunzel, spent some time here in the gardens and around our turret. 

i love the effortless style of her bare feet, loose whimsy braid {which is AMAZING} , absence of jewelry, and natural make up.

kissing in the rain

alisha, with dream with me photography, shared this lovely summer engagement shoot with us. i love the fact that she turned a summer rain {which may discourage the faint of heart} into something timeless and romantic.

a willing and in love couple + rain = a completely romantic engagement shoot 

see, winter can be romantic

it is always a treat when a photographer shares pictures with me that they've taken of an event here.  i love seeing how the farm looks through their eyes and seeing the grounds play dress up for each new event. 

emily, with gingersnaps photography, recently shared these gorgeous pictures she captured here recently during a cold snowy winter night.
