Crossroads engagement session in downtown Kansas City

Crossroads Engagement | Victoria + Josh

Let me tell you, I used to be terrified of having Crossroads Engagement sessions. And by used to, I mean I was terrified like a week ago. Well, after this gorgeous session with Victoria and Josh, Crossroads engagement sessions may be my new favorite.

In order to combat my fear, I did tons and tons of research. I always try to location scout before a session, but I may have been a little extreme this time. I spent a good three hours of Google maps the morning of the session going up and down every street available on Street View. I asked Google about some of the best murals and then mapped out a route for us to take. It was a 30 minute round trip walk, but we were able to hit up so many cool places.

After taking close to 5000 steps and climbing 12 flights of stairs, we were all exhausted when we arrived at our final location. It had been so overcast and gloomy all day, but the sky parted and gave us a gorgeous sunset! After showing these two a picture on the back of the camera, Victoria told me the sunset looks better in the photo than in real life. That's what I love to hear and proves how little editing actually goes into my sunset photos!

Thank you so much Victoria and Josh for a fun and beautiful session. Here's your preview! More to come shortly!

He proposed to me on Christmas Eve at my parents house in front of their Christmas tree. His family and my parents were right there with us it was very special to have them all there <3 I also was very surprised!

Question for the bride: what do you love most about him?

I love his personality, how he is silly and so caring. I love most the way he makes me feel which is warm, safe, and loved.

Question for the groom: what do you love most about her?

He loves my kindness and my eyes the most.

What's your favorite part about wedding planning?

I have loved planning the flowers which is making me even more excited just about the whole day in general. I’ve loved the food planning and tasting as well!
