Tara + Vix’s Sunset Engagement Photos at Upper Onondaga Park

Tara and Vix envisioned summer engagement photos with a scenic backdrop filled with beauty. They reached out to me to make their dream a reality, and we opted for sunset engagement photos at Upper Onondaga Park in Syracuse NY. This is one of my favorite places in the entire city because of it’s picturesque nature.

The happy couple met through Tinder and were engaged in the fall. The engagement photos were the next piece to their love story, and I was so happy I could help document it. When we chatted about our plans beforehand, they told me they needed a little help in front of the camera, but that never bothers me - it’s literally what I’m here for!

The first half of their session was spent wandering around the park taking fun photos. I pulled out all my favorite prompts to help them feel comfortable and keep the poses easy and genuine. The result was a lot of laughter, and joy that radiated through my camera. I loved our time together!

Tara’s parents were in town and joined us for the session. Tara and Vix changed into traditional Vietnamese outfits, and they looked stunning. We snapped photos with Tara’s parents, and more of just them. I’m always thrilled to accommodate requests that are important to your culture!

Tara and Vix, I wish you so much happiness and love as you start this next chapter of your life together!
