Bryan and Maria love to spend their time together camping, hiking and adventuring around Duluth. They did this for years together as friends before realizing there was more to their relationship. The best relationships have a strong friendship base so Bryan and Maria are off to a good start!

Bryan proposed to Maria in September and they’re getting married next year at Spirit Mountain in Duluth.

For their adventure session, we wanted to incorporate their love for the outdoors so we spent our session hiking around Chester Bowl Park.

It is a gorgeous area with waterfalls located in their neighborhood. I’m definitely envious about their proximity to this park and all of the awesome hiking areas in Duluth and around the north shore.

They weren’t afraid to explore, climb over rocks and get their shoes dirty. I’ll take hiking boots over heels any day!

Between Bryan and Maria’s love for adventure and each other, the puppy, and the perfect fall colors, this session hit the jackpot in every way!

Thanks for spending this awesome fall day laughing and hiking with me, Bryan & Maria!
