T & P Engagement Part II

I got to end the year off with a weekend full of wonderfully photogenic people, isn't that great? Yesterday was the second part of Taryn & Patrick's engagement which was filled with driving around and exploring new territory and ended with some familiar places close to home. A perfect adventure...my favorite kind of session.

Not to self, next time wait for the sun to be a little lower when attempting this location again. given that I had a no flash (mostly because I loathe the use of flash outdoor), this was a miracle shot indeed!

Definitely one for the sample book, don't you think?

She brought along her red pumps, I love her folks.

Hello...the wedding colors will be black & green, how could I not?

A classic portrait, always a must.

Anyone noticing that my "sneak peeks" are getting larger & larger?

T & P Engagement

Yup, another engagement, goodness I love to shoot couples in love. What could possibly be better? Well, in this case, the weather could've but we were absolutely not about to let a few rain drops stop us. Truth be told, I was standing in the rain for this first shot and the clouds rolling in along with it did not look friendly at all. But, guess what. We decided to keep on going and the rain passed...yay! I am not finished with this couple mind you, so there will be more of them on the blog in the weeks to come so stay tuned. For now, here's this weekend's preview...

Raining here? Yup.

What's an engagement without a railroad track shot?

Yessir, it's the field...

Got this one ordered for the office...

M & M Engagement

What an amazing night for an engagement shoot! Can I tell you how big a sucker I am for young love or can you see on your own? The weather was perfect, the light was gorgeous and the couple, well they couldn't possibly have been any more photogenic. This couple is near and dear to me as the bride was my youngest's kindergarten teacher and he asks at least once a week if he can please go back to her class.

These next few were taken in my new secret favorite place. The mosquitoes and small patches of poison ivy were a bit of a challenge, but that absolutely awesome light made it all worth it. Wasn't it so nice for God to produce a sunset like this one just for me?

E-Session: Chris & Brit

I had such a fantastic time shooting this young couple's engagement that I had to find any excuse to do it again and so since we literally had NO sunset this Saturday evening, I will get the chance! Whoo hoo! I just couldn't possibly narrow down the shots so I decided to post a bunch of 'em along with a little teaser for what's to come later on this week after phase two..hehe!

So this is the teaser. Even though I knew we couldn't officially shoot because the sun was pretty much gone and the sky was just a yucky blueish gray, I wanted to get a feel for what I had in mind and I must say, that I am stoked! This isn't near the quality of what I am planning, but oh boy is it gonna be fab-u-lous!
