Victoria + Phil | Holland Engagement

I met Victoria and Phil a few weeks ago at the Holland state park beach and when we arrived it was freezing cold and overcast. As we stepped onto the sand we were hit with intense winds-- like, eat your hair the entire time winds-- but Victoria and Phil were amazing and trooped on right through it! What resulted are some really insanely gorgeous photos of these two with the churning Lake Michigan waters in the background. Victoria's beautiful hair flying in the wind are some of my favorites and is just proof that stunning images can be captured even in less than ideal situations (and how adorable is that skirt!)! Here are some of my favorites below!
