Ghent Norfolk Engagement

This Ghent Norfolk Virginia engagement session was so fun. Jay & Lauren met me at the Cure Coffeeshop. Lauren loves the brick roads & the historic houses that Ghent offers, which is why she wanted their session there. It was a great choice for their style.

She & Jay are celebrating their wedding in October at the beautiful Historic Post Office in Hampton, Virginia.

Okay, this is kinda crazy for me to talk about, but Lauren’s engagement ring was gorgeous! Jay shared with me the story about how he had is custom-made in Bahrain. He even showed me photos of when it was first designed. I sure wish Jake & I knew about this option when we were getting married. Such a stunning ring!

On the day of their Ghent Norfolk engagement session, the weather was cold & overcast. We had fun walking, laughing & getting to know each other. We even caught the trolley coming through for some cityscape photos. I loved that these two were willing to try some new things with me.

I really loved the variety of this session. We got the cobblestone roads, some city looks, some urban vibes, and some dock with water in the background too. Lauren said, “you can’t live in Hampton Roads & not have photos by some body of water!” I do agree with her!

To Jay & Lauren, thank you for allowing me the honor of photographing your engagement session. It really was a joy! Jake & I pray you both have a beautiful wedding celebration in October. So many blessings!

Jake & Jennifer
