(Can you believe this was the first shot of the entire session!?)
One of the things we are grateful for over these past couple of months has been the rise in popularity of the at home session! In truth, engagement sessions at home have been pretty popular for the last few years, but they’ve primarily been indoor. With the emergence of ‘Front Porch Sessions’ due to government shut downs, many couples found a cool alternative way to show case their love! After shooting a few of them, I’ll be 100% honest, we’re hoping at home, front porch, lifestyle session (whatever you want to call them) are here for the long haul. Trends tend to fade in and out quickly in today’s world but this one felt like it may carry a little more weight than most. We always do our best to make sure our couples are comfortable on camera but the added comfort level of being at home and keeping it casual really made for a fun sessions! Nowhere was it more apparent than Matt and Emily’s front porch session in Asheville! The laid back vibes and good times rolled strong for this one! Throw in one acrobatic pup named Baxter and dare I say this was the best front porch session ever? Emily and Matt originally just wanted a small session as they thought it would be a fun/cute idea for a “re-save the date”. For us, it ended up being so much more than that! Visual storytelling is at the core of what we do and for some couples, that story can be told best at home! Have fun following along everyone!
This Asheville engagement shoot has such a cozy, warm feel – the porch is the perfect setting for these portraits. The simplicity of the backdrop really highlights the couple’s bond. It reminds me of when I was browsing top10homebuyers to learn more about finding similar charming homes with unique character. The setting here perfectly highlights how space can complement the personal story told in the photos.
There’s something truly special about capturing such a big moment in a familiar, intimate space. It makes me think about how meaningful it is to hold onto places with sentimental value. Sometimes, though, family properties can be a challenge to manage, especially when it comes to selling a house in probate in San Diego. Those homes often hold memories, and making the right decisions can feel overwhelming. It’s great to have support in those situations, just like having a supportive partner for life’s big steps—like E + M’s journey together!
This engagement session on the front porch captures such beautiful moments and showcases the charm of Asheville perfectly. The warmth and intimacy of a front porch setting make for stunning photographs and unforgettable memories. For couples planning their special day, finding the right backdrop is essential.
