In the heart of Sedona, Arizona, where crimson cliffs meet clear blue skies, we met with Abbie and Will to capture their love against the breathtaking backdrop of Bell Rock. Their six-month-old daughter, Sedona, joined us – which was such a treat to be in Sedona, with Sedona!

Abbie and Will’s love story began in college, sparked by the serendipitous connection between Abbie’s roommate and Will. Their relationship flourished during Abbie’s semester abroad in Italy when Will made the impromptu decision to visit her in Europe – despite having a fear of flying. From the cobbled streets of Rome to the romantic allure of Paris, their bond deepened amidst the timeless beauty of iconic European cities.

Their journey reached new heights when Will proposed amidst the tranquil serenity of the Blue Ridge Mountains in North Carolina, presenting Abbie with a meticulously crafted ring designed by him and his beloved grandmother—a radiant emerald-cut gem adorned with delicate diamonds on one side, symbolizing their shared journey and future together.

While neither of us were familiar with Sedona, after some initial research, choosing Bell Rock for their engagement session was a natural decision. Its majestic beauty perfectly mirrored the grandeur of their love story. As the golden hour cast its warm embrace upon the landscape, each corner of Bell Rock offered a picturesque tableau for their photographs. From the rugged terrain to the ethereal glow of the setting sun, every moment captured reflected the playful romance shared between Abbie and Will.

Abbie and Will, thank you so much for meeting us in Sedona and exploring such a gorgeous part of the country with us! We loved getting to know you and celebrating together at dinner! We are so happy for you two! And of course, a big shout out to Rusti for helping with baby Sedona throughout the session – couldn’t have done it without you!
