Kayla & Josh’s Spring Engagement Session at the Arboretum

Engagement

Nov 20

As a wedding photographer in Ottawa, I love capturing couples in meaningful locations, especially spots that feel alive year-round. Kayla & Josh’s engagement session at the Arboretum was a perfect spring example: blooming magnolias, other flowering trees, and soft light made for a dreamy backdrop. They brought their dog along, which added joy and spontaneity to the session, and we even celebrated their engagement with a little champagne toast.

Capturing Connection in Nature

The Arboretum is one of my favorite locations in Ottawa because it offers so much in every season—from vibrant spring blooms to golden autumn leaves and even peaceful winter paths. My goal is always to capture authentic moments: laughter, quiet gestures, and the small celebrations that feel personal to each couple.

Final Thoughts

Engagement sessions work best when they feel natural and relaxed. With thoughtful planning, a beautiful setting, and attention to real connection, you end up with images that are joyful, intimate, and timeless.
