Lexie and Zach’s love story reads like a modern fairy tale, high school sweethearts who reconnected years later and never looked back. Their downtown Boise engagement session was equal parts romantic, playful, and wildly fun, just like them. As winners of the Ultimate Engagement Giveaway, they turned the city into their personal New York City playground. Every frame from our day together was filled with laughter, tenderness, and the kind of connection that’s impossible to fake. As a Boise wedding photographer, my mission is to capture those intentional moments, and with Lexie and Zach, we did just that.

A New York State of Mind in Boise

Lexie and Zach, who got engaged in New York City during a whirlwind vacation, loved the idea of their engagement photoshoot mirroring the magic of that experience. We embarked on a journey through downtown Boise, transforming it into a vibrant homage to the city that holds a special place in their hearts. Our first stop was the charming Ochos, reminiscent of New York’s brownstones, where Lexie, in a flowing white dress, and Zach, in his relaxed yet stylish attire, embraced the urban backdrop with laughter and love.

The couple, known for their playful “hooliganning” adventures (visiting multiple new places in a night for drinks and apps), brought their infectious energy to every location. As we strolled past the stone steps of Ochos, their laughter echoed the joy of exploring new places together. Capturing them in moments of spontaneity, like sitting on the sidewalk holding hands and stealing kisses, highlighted their fun-loving nature.

Cherry Blossoms & City Views: A Spring Walk Downtown

Our adventure continued with a romantic walk past the Idaho State Capitol, where the blooming cherry blossoms painted a picturesque scene. In the shadow of the Capitol building, Lexie and Zach were framed among the blossoms, creating a dreamy atmosphere reminiscent of an evening in Central Park.

As we wandered further into downtown, we paused to admire Idaho’s newest and tallest building. The sun caught the sleek glass façade just right, casting a golden glow that added a touch of modern energy to their love story. It was the perfect contrast, nature and city, soft and bold, all in one unforgettable evening.

An Evening at Hotel Renegade

As the sun set, we concluded our photoshoot at the iconic Hotel Renegade. The hotel’s enchanting ambiance, combined with Boise’s twinkling city lights, provided a perfect setting for intimate, romantic shots. Lexie and Zach’s playful yet tender dynamic was captured in moments of quiet reflection and shared laughter, embodying their adventurous spirit.

Just when things couldn’t get sweeter, their pup Dale made her grand entrance. Full of personality and joy, she brought a playful energy to the night. It was impossible to miss how much she adored her people, nudging in for kisses, wrapping them both in her happy chaos. She was the heart-melting finale to a day already overflowing with connection.

Clinking Glasses and Future Dreams at Highlander

Every great adventure deserves a celebratory toast, and we ended ours at Highlander, one of Lexie and Zach’s favorite local spots. With cozy vibes, clinking glasses, and golden hour fading into twilight, the atmosphere felt warm and effortless. As they shared a drink and exchanged a few final laughs, the glow between them said it all: this is a couple grounded in love, joy, and deep connection.

Their smiles, full of excitement and ease, reflected not just the magic of the evening, but the life they’re building together. It was the perfect final note to a day that was as playful, romantic, and meaningful as their story.
