Some engagement sessions feel like they’re straight out of a dream—and N+D’s sunset engagement session at a private horse farm in Flamborough, Ontario was exactly that. From the golden evening light to the peaceful countryside setting, everything about this session felt magical.
As a wedding photographer, I always encourage couples to choose locations that feel authentic and meaningful to them. Whether it’s a family property, a favourite hiking trail, or even a cozy backyard, the best photos happen when you’re truly comfortable and connected to the space. And for N+D, this family-owned horse farm was the perfect setting to capture their love story.
Golden Hour Magic & Playful Moments
Golden hour is my absolute favourite time for engagement sessions, and this evening did not disappoint. The soft, warm light wrapped around them perfectly, creating that dreamy, glowing effect that makes everything feel extra romantic.
We captured a mix of candid and intimate moments. The best engagement photos always happen when couples let go and just enjoy the experience, and these two did exactly that.
Why I Love Engagement Sessions in Natural Settings
There’s something so special about capturing love in the great outdoors. Whether it’s a horse farm, a quiet forest, or a sun-drenched meadow, nature adds such an organic, effortless beauty to every image.
For couples planning an engagement session, here are a few tips for the perfect outdoor shoot:
1. Choose a meaningful location – Whether it’s a place you visit often or somewhere that feels like “you,” the best photos happen where you’re most comfortable.
2. Schedule around golden hour – That soft, dreamy light just before sunset makes all the difference!
3. Wear something that feels like YOU – Flowing dresses, earthy tones, and neutral colours always complement natural settings beautifully.
4. Incorporate personal elements – Whether it’s a pet, a hobby, or a favourite activity, adding personal touches makes the session even more special.
