Rachelle is the owner of the wonderful Milk and Cookies Bake Shop. This summer I am happy to say she is marrying her lovely fiancee Derek. As with all our wedding clients who choose one of our three wedding packages we like to get together well before the wedding. We include an engagement session so that we can get to know each other better. With Rachelle and Derek we did just that with a hot chocolate and cookies engagement session.

Rachelle and Derek are very, very shy people. Standing up in front of more than 100 guests whilst two other relative strangers take your photo can be quite daunting. This is just one reason why we love engagement sessions. We want you to know that having a professional capture your day should be easy. It should be relaxing and much more fun than you might have previously thought! We want you to love the day whilst everyone else you have hired concentrates on the details. Including us, the photographers.

With all this in mind we went for a quick dance on a hill!

And a quiet walk through the Autumn leaves.

On this cool autumn day came the finale to this hot chocolate and cookies engagement. I brought a thermos of hot chocolate to take the edge off of the Autumn chill. Rachelle brought a box of delicious cookies from her Milk and Cookies Bake Shop.

Thank you Derek and Rachelle for a lovely afternoon. I can’t wait to see you again this summer.

Callum and Max would also like to say thank you for the delicious cookies!
