Danielle and Lance requested something "less traditional cutesy" for their engagement session and specifically mentioned wanting a "more industrial" feel, so after some brainstorming with Sarah, they ended up choosing Fort Monroe in Hampton which is a perfect location for a touch of urban in a few spots! You've gotta love that brick, metal, and peeling paint-- it makes for incredible backgrounds for some special moments!
