They&#8217;re an adorable couple who brighten the day for anyone who meets them. They&#8217;re just as in love with their engagement photos as we are! Katie describes their experience with these very kind words:<\/p>\n<blockquote><p><em><span style=\"color: #800000\">When Mike and I were looking for our wedding photographer, Ulysses Photography was our top choice.\u00a0 Ulysses and Jenni were the first and only photographers we met with and, soon after we stepped foot in their door, we knew that we didn\u2019t need to look any further.\u00a0 It goes without saying that their work is\u00a0<span style=\"text-decoration: underline\">incredible<\/span>, but their personalities were what really solidified our decision.\u00a0They are incredibly sweet and genuine. They are so enthusiastic about their work, and they sincerely care about making your photos fantastic. Their fun, positive energy is contagious.<\/span><\/em><\/p>\n<div>\n<p><em><span style=\"color: #800000\">So for our engagement session, we knew that regardless of what we did, they would work their magic to produce amazing photos. But we wanted to make sure we put a personal spin on our session. When Mike proposed, he hid the ring in a cupcake box\u2014so we knew that we wanted to incorporate cupcakes into our engagement session (and, of course, we\u2019ll take any excuse to stray from the wedding diet and munch on some sweets).\u00a0\u00a0And since we love going on picnics, we figured that would be a perfect way for us to relax and just enjoy our date day.\u00a0\u00a0We also wanted to make sure our more predominant silly side came through in the photos, too\u2014that\u2019s where the books came in.<\/span><\/em><\/p>\n<p><em><span style=\"color: #800000\">Ulysses &amp; Jenni really helped to make us feel comfortable and relaxed throughout the session.\u00a0\u00a0We had such a fun, easy day with them! Mike isn\u2019t the type to enjoy having his photo taken (or to look forward to the results), but they somehow changed his perspective and kept him engaged in the process\u2014I\u2019m not sure that anyone else could have done that.\u00a0\u00a0<\/span><\/em><\/p>\n<p><em><span style=\"color: #800000\">When we went for our reveal, Ulysses &amp; Jenni had a tray filled with goodies for us to snack on while we looked at our photos (yet another example of how awesome they are).\u00a0\u00a0And when we saw our photos, we were blown away.\u00a0\u00a0It was so difficult to pick our favorite photos because each one was more amazing than the next. We just received our prints and wall art, and we are so thrilled with how they turned out!<\/span><\/em><\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/blockquote>\n<p>We truly can&#8217;t wait to join these two for their wedding at the <a title=\"Fallkirk Estate and Country Club | Central Valley, New York\" href=\"http:\/\/www.falkirkestate.com\/\" target=\"_blank\">Fallkirk Estate<\/a>.<\/p>\n<p>More with <a href=\"http:\/\/ulyssesphotography.com\/blog\/tag\/katie-mike\">Katie + Mike<\/a>.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>We can&#8217;t get enough of Katie + Mike.
