Steele Creek Park Engagement Session | Jessica & Marcus

Danielle Defayette Photography Steele Creek Park Engagement Bristol 0170

Jessica and Marcus are the cutest couple. They love everything about the outdoors and getting to take their photos for the first time was a blast!

One day a couple of months ago, Marcus and Jessica went fishing. In Jessica’s mind, there was nothing extraordinary about this because they go fishing all the time. Little did she know that on that spectacular day, she would be getting a beautiful ring on her hook!

So it only felt right that these love birds bait up for their engagement session at Steele Creek Park!

hi, i'm danielle—

In the past 10+ years as a Wedding & Portrait Photographer, I’ve found that, aside from arming myself with my cameras to catch swoon-worthy moments of my couples on their day, I’m also bringing a few other unexpected things. 

Like my tough love mom-voice that will keep your bridal party in check, my air of calm if you’re feeling overwhelmed, and the corniest jokes so no one has the jitters in front of the camera!

Because so much more goes into getting those gorgeous wedding photos than just hitting “click!”

and I'm not just bringing my camera to your big day.
