Deanna and Travis were my last session before my maternity leave, and boy did we knock it out of the park! We had the most beautiful sunset lighting at Holcomb Gardens on Butler Campus. We chatted all things weddings, pasta, and these two were so smiley! I’m super excited for their Spring 2022 wedding.
