Cross Estate Gardens Summer Engagement
Cross Estate Gardens Engagement
Kelly & Tim // Bernardsville, NJ
Kelly and Tim are tying the knot during the winter season in Hoboken so for their engagement session, they wanted to have a summer garden session. I knew the whimsical Cross Estate Gardens in Bernardsville, New Jersey was the perfect location. The Cross Estate Gardens are immaculately kept and a lovely public garden that does not require a permit. If you’re looking for whimsical engagement photos, this is an excellent option.
Keep scrolling to see this lovely evening hanging out with Kelly and Tim and photographing their love. They’re so full of joy and their happiness is completely contagious. I couldn’t dream up a better session for this sweet couple. These two met while they were down the shore so it was only fitting for Tim to propose to Kelly on the Jersey Shore beaches. He planned it the day before New Year’s Eve and had a celebration with family and friends after. As fellow Hobokeners, I truly can’t wait for the big day at the W Hoboken and St. Ann’s Catholic Church next February.
Kind Words from Kelly & Tim
Do yourself a favor and book Lizzie!! I have been trying to write a review for days, but I truly don’t even know where to begin. Lizzie’s incredible work truly speaks for itself! After our initial conversation with her, we felt so confident in choosing Lizzie to be our wedding photographer. From booking her, to our engagement photo shoot, to our wedding day, Lizzie’s professionalism, responsiveness, communication, organization, calm spirit, and talent made it so easy for us to enjoy our most special wedding day. Lizzie exceeded our expectations. She has an unbelievably unique gift in making you feel so comfortable and confident that you really don’t even feel like you are taking photos. Also, she sends your photos back so quickly! We couldn’t believe the turnaround time. Throughout the planning process Lizzie answered any texts or emails where I had questions and had such a detailed questionnaire to make sure our day would run smoothly. Lizzie is so prepared with everything you need to know and think about when planning your wedding day. On the day of, she kept us all on time and captured every single moment – even moments we didn’t even think of capturing! The whole day went so perfectly! She was our hype woman, stepped in to help for everything, from pinning my veil, carrying my bouquet, fixing my hair, the list goes on! She made our day perfect because we did not feel rushed or that we were being pulled in all different directions. My family, friends, bridal party, and guests could not stop talking about how talented our photographer was and how she was swiftly moving throughout every portion of our day capturing every moment. They also mentioned how they were so happy the photographer was not forcing photos, and just went with the flow. To put it simply, she was AMAZING. Her work is absolutely stunning. We are in complete awe of our photos, and we will cherish these for the rest of our lives. We are so thankful for Lizzie!!!
