Kristine and Sam’s Galveston engagement shoot captured by Mollie Jane Photography gives us all the best beachy summer vibes. The adorable couple’s love story began in high school when Sam asked Kristine to their hometown rodeo. The two hit it off and danced the night away! Sam completely swept Kristine off her feet and proposed on their family’s ranch. The couple plans to wed this April in Galveston, following Sam’s parents’ footsteps, who also got married in Galveston. Kristine and Sam describe themselves as very outdoorsy people who spend a lot of time at the beach. Therefore when it came time to choose a location for their engagement session with Mollie Jane Photography, the couple decided on the sandy beaches of Galveston. The light and airy photography with the setting of the sandy beach makes for stunning images. Kristine and Sam had never done professional photos together. However, the image gallery would say otherwise because this couple is so photogenic and allows their personalities to shine through. Mollie Jane Photography said, “I loved this session because I think that it really does capture who they are. For engagement sessions, it is so nice to have a simple location and have your relationship and personalities stand out.” We could not agree more! Having images that feel and represent who you are as a couple always makes for a standout shoot. You can honestly feel the couple’s love for each other in each photo, and we can’t wait to see all the images from their upcoming wedding. Keep scrolling to see all the gorgeous photos of Kristine and Sam. Cheers!
