Maddie & Josh’s engagement session at Black Balsam Knob in the Blue Ridge Mountains was amazing. As soon as you meet them you automatically know they were meant for each other and that shined through in every image.

After they met through church, they actually lived in different states. Josh pursued Maddie though, and eventually moved from Georgia to Charlotte to continue their relationship. He proposed by leading her with white rose petals to a private dock surrounded by some of their favorite photos and family.

During their session, we crossed rivers, climbed mountains, explored forests, and even stopped a few times to dance. Check out the photos from their Blue Ridge Mountains engagement session below!
