Oh my gosh, friends—I’m beyond excited to share Taylor and Jordan’s Dayton engagement session! This dreamy evening took us to some of the most iconic photo locations in the area. We started at the historic Dayton Masonic Temple, walked over to the stunning steps of the Dayton Art Institute, and wrapped up the session with golden hour magic at Wegerzyn Gardens. It was the perfect blend of elegance, fun, and romance!

A Dreamy Dayton Engagement Session Across Iconic Locations

We started at the Dayton Masonic Temple, where Taylor and Jordan’s elegant style matched the historic architecture perfectly. Taylor wore the cutest short white dress with the most stunning oversized bow in the back—seriously, I’m obsessed! You know I had to capture that bow from every angle. Jordan looked incredibly dashing in a sharp black suit, and together they looked so timeless and chic.

Can we also talk about Taylor’s glam curls and flawless makeup? She looked absolutely stunning! Hair and makeup were beautifully done by Elizabeth Gomez — highly recommend checking her out if you’re looking for a Dayton makeup artist who knows how to bring the glam!

Capturing Timeless Moments on the Dayton Art Institute Steps

Next, we took a short walk to the steps of the Dayton Art Institute—one of my favorite classic spots for photos. The light was just right, and these two absolutely glowed against the beautiful stone backdrop.

To wrap up the evening, we drove to Wegerzyn Gardens just in time to end golden hour. Taylor changed into a flowy blush dress adorned with the sweetest little bows, and Jordan went with a relaxed, crisp white shirt and khakis. The soft, romantic vibes of Wegerzyn were the perfect way to end the session—and yes, we captured plenty of twirls as Taylor danced around like an actual princess!

This Dayton engagement session was filled with sweet moments, beautiful style, and perfect light—and I’m so honored to have captured it all. From classic architecture to a floral garden sunset, this is exactly why I love being a engagement photographer!

Taylor and Jordan, I can’t wait for your wedding next year at the new Benham’s Grove building! It’s going to be so gorgeous, and I’m so honored to be part of your journey.
