Brianna & Drew’s Playful Autumn Engagement Photos by the Lake
If you’re dreaming of autumn engagement photos that blend cozy vibes with vibrant fall colors, this session is sure to inspire you. Fall colors, lakeside views, and the laughter of love – that’s what encapsulated Brianna and Drew’s delightful engagement session last month. We ventured around the picturesque landscapes at serene Green Lakes or central New York, taking advantage of the beautiful backdrop nature offered us. Notably, the vibrant foliage and tranquil waters of the lake provided a stunning canvas for their photos. There’s something undeniably magical about autumn engagement photos—the way the golden leaves and soft sunlight create the perfect romantic backdrop.
Brianna and Drew’s session is a beautiful example of how autumn engagement photos can feel playful, intimate, and effortlessly stylish. These lovebirds brought energy and fun to the shoot, wearing casual yet stylish outfits that perfectly mirrored their personalities and the laid-back vibe of the session. Brianna looked effortlessly chic in her ribbed white top and denim jeans, while Andrew’s coral shirt and white pants complemented the autumnal colors around them beautifully. From bold foliage to cozy outfits, autumn engagement photos like these showcase just how special this season can be for couples in love.
“Drew asked me where I saw my life going and made it clear he wanted to be part of it because we shared so many core values like caring and openness,” Brianna shared.

As the photographer, I’m particularly captivated by the lakeside photo. The radiant smiles and intimate glances between Brianna and Drew perfectly capture their sheer joy and anticipation for their future. These two aren’t just eager to celebrate their upcoming wedding at La Bella Vista in Waterbury, Connecticut—they also plan to pay tribute to Drew’s Liberian roots with a unique change into traditional African wedding attire. This personal touch resonates deeply with me, as my own family hails from Ghana, and I hold a profound appreciation for the rich traditions that connect us to our heritage.
The excitement and love that Brianna and Drew share is truly infectious, and it’s clear they’re perfectly matched. Their wedding, set for Fall 2026, promises to be a beautiful celebration of their cultures and love story. I can’t wait to capture every moment of their special day!
