Oliver and Kelly are college sweethearts. They’ve been together for years now, going through the transitions of graduation, real world jobs, and moving to Roanoke together. From the beginning, Oliver was smitten. All it took was a visit to Smith Mountain Lake with friends. And all it took for Kelly was Oliver making the visit to Radford. Since then, it’s been the two of them.

When I met with Kelly this summer, she just gushed over what a sweet and genuine man Oliver was. She talked about him like he was a true gentlemen, and I could tell from her easy demeanor that they’d be a perfect fit. We had to postpone their engagement session due to weather, so when it finally came time to meet last week, I was excited! Finally I’d get to see these two together. And it didn’t disappoint.

Kelly lights up in his arms. She beams and becomes even more radiant than she is on her own. Oliver keeps her laughing and clearly loves her deeply. It was a privilege to get to spend time around their one of a kind love and it’s got me counting down until their June wedding at the Tresca. Hope you enjoy their downtown Roanoke engagement session.

See what I mean? Kelly is radiant in his arms.

Love their classy outfits :]

Love these.

One of my favorites!

And Oliver suggested we finish up at this bridge..and it was perfect!
