I figured it would be good to post these before I post their wedding! It was so awesome getting to know Jess & Joel. They were so kind and funny and we really had a lot in common! I consider my job one of the best in the world, because I have the rare opportunity to truly build friendships with my clients and working with couples like these solidify my desire and strengthen my passion for documenting the momentous occasions in people’s lives!

We hung out at a local nature center, then went and grabbed some ice cream. I hope you all like these photos and stay tuned for their wedding preview photos!

Wow. Sorry for the long break, my ever-so-faithful followers! Have you missed me? …I am dreading the continuance of cold weather, as it puts a damper on shooting outdoors, so I don’t have as much to blog, but I have had the occasion to shoot a couple of times and I look forward to sharing with you.

On another really awesome note…there are some major surprises in store for my fellow photographers and my clients…it’s coming soon! Can you guess what it is? Stay tuned!

I am so excited for you to meet this couple! We shot down on the Plaza when it was a heat wave (something like 45 degree F). Blake and Jennifer are getting married this September 27 at Renee Kelly’s at Caenen Castle! How cool is that? They were fun to spend a few hours with, just getting to know one another, and I can’t wait to shoot their wedding!

Jennifer, keep hanging on! The wedding is not too far away!

They are so wrapped up in each other. It’s cute.

Awwww….pretty couple.

Together…forever.

I loved the texture from their jeans and coats. Jennifer has the coolest coats.

Hot, hot, hot!

Window shopping anyone?

At least it was warm inside…They got to thaw out a bit, while I froze my fingers.

His sweater is pretty cool…Classic, but cool. My little sister, whom I will post some photos of this week, bought me a sweater like that for Christmas.

Parking garages are fun. I didn’t have any other external lights with me, so I just used the darned fluorescents on the ceiling.

Shoe shopping never was much fun for guys…unless you are with the one you love…and you are really NOT looking at shoes. Then it might be fun!

She is going to be a gorgeous bride. Mark my words!

Sultry! Look at the painting in the window. It looks like they are on the beach!

Shot through two windows at the corner of a building. Kinda cool, huh?

Whoa! Blue eyes!

Smoking!

We finally warmed things up at Starbucks with good conversation and hot coffee.

I still can’t believe Caycee braved climbing into that clunker of a truck, but the photo came out pretty cool, I think, but I need your help. Which do you like better?

Number One?

OR

Number Two?
