Today I’m excited to share Christina and Rosti’s winter engagement at Allaire State Park, shot by our Associate Photographer Jocelyn last November. They met up in the morning and it paid off to get up so early because they had the prettiest morning light! I wish I could shoot in this type of light all the time! An added perk of a morning session was that they escaped the late morning and afternoon crowds that are typically found at this park in the fall. It’s such a popular spot thanks to its rustic setting, historic row houses, and old barns.

Christina and Rosti were engaged in Saint Lucia and are now planning an intimate wedding at the Grain House of the Olde Mill Inn in Basking Ridge, NJ. They’ll be getting married in August so their wedding is right around the corner! Their venue has lots of old world charm and we’re excited to see it complement the romantic feel of their wedding day.

Get a peek at Christina and Rosti’s engagement session below – I think you’re going to love seeing their pup, Frankie, too! He’s adorable and almost stole the show during the session.
