durham engagement photography – april & zach

Want to know what’s a great way to spend a sunny winter’s morning? Going for a stroll around the grounds and gardens at Duke with these two lovebirds, that’s what. April flew up from Tampa to meet up with Zach especially for this shoot and I’m so glad she did. The weather was gorgeous and these guys were such great fun to work with. Here are just a few of my personal faves from our Durham engagement photography session…
