Modern Romance Engagement Shoot with Casual and Formal Portraits

There are so many stunning love-filled photos in this modern romance engagement shoot! Featuring urban city and rooftop settings as well as stately marble column-lined scenes around and near Oklahoma Hall of Fame and Gaylord-Pickens Museum, we are obsessed with the range of this gorgeous gallery captured by Meg Rose Photography. This lovely couple’s story started when Ashley’s sorority was paired with Jordan’s fraternity for a musical competition at UCO. They were dance partners and became fast friends through their frequent and often late-night practices. They placed second at their competition but the friendship continued afterward, and the pair finally made it official almost a year after they met. For their late summer wedding, Ashley is leaning toward a palette of summery, sunset colors and isn’t afraid of going bold, so we know this wedding will be a bright one! She is most excited for her gown from Prescott Bridal, in part because Ashley works there occasionally and has been eyeing her dress for years, plus her maid of honor is the owner! By the looks of their chemistry in this modern romance engagement shoot, these two are going places! Read on for a story from the soon-to-be bride about how her beau proposed. Cheers to Ashley and Jordan!

From the bride: “(Jordan) proposed to me on an unexpected Tuesday night on my couch in my apartment. I always said I wanted to be surprised, and I was exactly that! Unfortunately, I ruined his plans for a nice dinner out that night because I had gotten a facial that day and didn’t want to put makeup on. He’s clearly good at improvising, and his Plan B turned out to be the most perfect intimate proposal. After he popped the question, I quickly got myself together, and we met our closest friends at a rooftop bar for the best surprise celebration! It was completely perfect.”
