Mariana + Micheal Biltmore Estate Engagement Session

When you have champagne toasts, dancing on the front lawn at Biltmore, and a suit so sharp it could cute ice what do you get?! Mariana & Micheal’s Biltmore Engagement Session! Go BIG or go HOME has always been a motto I love and apparently it’s one these two hotties below prescribe too as well. M&M told me they wanted to do it up big for their engagements and they weren’t joking! I was all in with their plan of doing something out of the norm for their engagement session. The more couples are true to themselves and what they love doing, the better the photos turn out and fit their uniqueness.

Mariana and Micheal got engaged at The Biltmore Estate and wanted to go back to the place where it all started. But before their formal photos they wanted me to capture them doing one of their favorite things, cooking. I met up with them at the Western North Carolina Farmers Market where they bought fresh ingredients for the recipe they wanted to make. Following them around with my massive camera totally made me feel like I was following around two celebrities. I followed them back to their modern apartment in West Asheville and they begun cooking up a storm. The cooking may or may not have included some wine drinking and impromptu dancing…but I won’t tell if you don’t. 😉

Once they finished cooking, I had them snuggle on their couch to get some cuddling photos. How amazing is their artwork?! M&M picked up their artwork on their various trips around the world! The icing on the cake for their session was going to Biltmore with them in their evening clothes. There was waltzing, popping bottles, and the most perfect Asheville sunset to complete their epic day.
