Engagement Session at Fairchild Botanical Gardens | Anna + Ryan

Anna and Ryan chose to capture their engagement session at Fairchild Botanical Gardens because it holds special meaning to them…the place where Ryan proposed!

Anna and Ryan live near Fairchild and have an annual membership! In their free time, they enjoy spending time picnicking and visiting the gardens with friends and family. After meeting up with them for their engagement session, I quickly learned that they had several favorite locations within the gardens including a true rainforest exhibit!! The Richard H. Simons Rainforest is a 2-acre feature within the gardens that is home to tropical species from around the world and is constantly being misted. A ‘cool’ place…literally! It was in this tropical paradise that Ryan popped the question a few months ago. 

Although they live in Miami, these two met while living in Madison WI! Since Wisconsin (and WI beer ;)) holds a special place in their heart, they decided to host their wedding ceremony and reception at Okauchee lake during the summer of 2022! 

I am so glad that the timing worked out well for me to document their engagement session while visiting South Florida. Grace Creatives is so excited to witness and document their lakeside wedding next year!
