Amy & Chris Engagement Session | Cuyahoga Valley National Park | Sarah’s Vineyard Winery

We had the best very chilly and windy Fall engagement session at two new locations with Amy & Chris!  Amy scouted out Sarah’s Vineyard Winery, which was perfect since she & Chris like to enjoy a glass of wine together and she also introduced us to one of the most picturesque views in Cuyahoga Valley National Park (and that’s saying a LOT since CVNP is so beautiful!). The Ledges Trailhead in Cuyahoga Valley National Park has views like no other! And Amy & Chris are so great together, which made the session even more fun!
Cuyahoga Valley National ParkWe LOVED their outfits! Amy’s dress was stunning & Chris’ well-tailored suit was awesome! Cuyahoga Valley National ParkThey look so gorgeous in that vineyard! We cannot even wait to see them as a bride & groom in June! Cuyahoga Valley National ParkCuyahoga Valley National ParkCuyahoga Valley National ParkCuyahoga Valley National ParkCuyahoga Valley National ParkCuyahoga Valley National ParkCuyahoga Valley National ParkAmy’s smile is everything.
