Zach + Christina | Downtown Springfield, MO Engagement Session

When couples say they want something a little different — a little urban, a little classic, a little them — downtown Springfield never disappoints.

Zach and Christina’s session felt like something straight out of a modern love story. Wandering through the historic streets, the city gave us the perfect mix of character and charm — brick walls, tucked-away alleyways, golden light pouring between buildings, and just the right amount of people-watching for a little natural magic.

These two are the kind of couple who go from playful laughter to quiet, caught-up-in-each-other moments in a breath. One minute they’re cracking jokes, the next they’re in their own little world — and that balance is what makes their connection so beautiful to capture.

Whether it was leaning against a mural, dancing in the middle of the street (with a watchful eye on traffic, of course), or just walking hand in hand past twinkle-lit windows, Zach and Christina brought all the realness. All the “this is us.”

I always tell my couples: you don’t have to know what to do in front of the camera — you just have to show up, be in love, and trust that I’ll do the rest. These two did exactly that.

I cannot wait for their wedding day. If this session was any preview of the love and energy they’ll bring, it’s going to be one for the books.

A Peek Into Their Session
