The way she looked out at the lake with utter amazement was almost comparable to the way he looked at her. Although they could have been anywhere on this Earth and he still would have been locked in on her. The way she giggled. The way she was full of excitement, just at the thought of being his wife. The lake is where it all began. It’s where Brian proposed, and it’s where they’ll say “I do” next May. There’s something incredibly special about returning to the place that holds so many milestones in their story and it was the perfect representation of their love.

Lexi and Brian are starting a life together, and this season feels like the sweetest kind of beginning. They’re settling into a new rhythm, dreaming about the future, and soaking in all the joy that comes with building that life. Watching them laugh, steal little glances, and wrap up in each other’s arms—it’s clear that their love isn’t just beautiful, it’s deeply rooted.

Lexi & Brian,

Thank you for inviting me into this part of your journey. The next time we’re standing at the lake together, it’ll be your wedding day, surrounded by the people who love you most, beginning your next chapter as husband and wife. Until then, I hope you keep savoring these little moments. The quiet evenings, the planning, the dreaming—it’s all part of the love story you’re writing together. I hope these photos forever remind you of the joy of this season.
