Meet Lisa and Chris!!! These are two totally awesome people with kind hearts and one seriously cool "fur family" !! They invited me out to their new property for the engagement session and I was blown away with how gorgeous this place is. Lisa and Chris plan on building a house and a barn this summer and will be getting married in the new barn in December! I am so excited to see everything come together :) When we started the session the first thing I noticed is that I was walking through a massive field full of free running horses {and trying really really hard to avoid stepping in any horse poo lol!} Once in position I got to play with fur babies number 1 & 2 as we attempted to get both of them to look at me for a quick pose. What adorable pups they were wearing signs stating "Mommy and Daddy are getting married!" and "12-10-16" Next it was on to Lisa and Chris where I enjoyed watching them laugh and giggle as I told them, just have fun! This is always my favorite part of a session because true personalities really come out! Finally it was time to play with fur babies 3 through 9 {big, stomp on your feet, can kill you with one swift kick, fur babies!} I really loved this experience as I got to witness this couple with their majestic looking Clydesdale - how powerful yet gentle he was! As we finished up the session Lisa invited all the horses over to "play" with us and before I knew it I had 6 other horses galloping my way and surrounding me to check me out. One sniffed my hair as the other attempted to eat my shirt-while a bit intimidating, it was a magical experience! I'll never forget how it felt to feel so in tune with nature and the animal kingdom...and of course I'll never forget running across the field flapping my arms like a chicken to demonstrate "this is my space!" haha I'm sure Lisa and Chris will never forget the visual either! Thanks for an awesome session guys; ya'll were great and I'm so looking forward to your wedding in December!

Meet Rachel and James!! These two were just amazing and I can't say enough wonderful things about them and this session. I love everything about these photos and am so happy to have had the opportunity to be a part of these guys love story!! And what a story it is! Rachel and James met in 2012 while line dancing and Rachel noticed "the cute blode guy" across the dance floor...three years later while backpacking through Europe James got down on one knee and proposed in front of the Eiffel Tower! It doesn't get much better than that!! I love meeting couples who have amazing energy and a true, natural love for each other. It was so evident watching them play around that they are madly in love - witnessing this is one of the many many reasons I love my job! I cannot wait to photograph their wedding this fall :)
Jillian and Josh are just as sweet as can be, and I love when couples incorporate their children and pets into a session! After all, a marriage is a blending not just of each other but of each other's entire lives. As with many engagement sessions I do, the soon-to-be wife is much more thrilled with taking pictures for two hours than the soon-to-be husband...but I'm always happy to say that when a session is complete, HE loves the photos just as much as SHE does even if it was torture getting through it ;) ha ha! My favorite photo from this session is this one right below with Jillian donning Josh's fire helmet. It is amazing to honor our hometown heroes and I love when a woman is proud of her man! I feel blessed to be able to photograph fire, police and military in uniform! Thanks for letting me capture these memories for you and I'll be seeing you both again in one short month for your wedding!
Lauren and Mark's engagement session was held in Hernando County, FL. I loved shooting these two, and their persistence was epic- we battled swarms of biting bugs, boaters needing to use the dock, and the rocking of the water beneath us! Lauren came with a lot of props which is always tons of fun-it really helps us get creative! These photos truly show how much love these two have for each other...just look at the way she stares at him {and he stares back}! Another awesome part of this session? These birds stuck around for the entire time, watching and admiring as well :) I can't wait to photograph ya'lls wedding this October!
So excited to be sharing Chris and Mallory's engagement photos! I enjoyed photographing these two so much and cannot wait to capture all their special moments at their wedding this October! Thank you for letting us be a part of your love story :) Mallory and Chris met at the gym they both go to and apparently it was meant to be from the start! After meeting, the two ran into each other all of the time outside of the gym and soon formed a relationship that is just so apparently wonderful. He asked-she said yes. And so the love story begins! <3
Meet Jacque and Jarrod! These two are amazing :) Jarrod loves Jacque to the moon and back and its so apparent that he would do anything for her! People like this make my heart smile! I am excited to say that they have also asked us to be a part of their wedding day next March and we are so happy to be included in this special celebration! Thank you for letting us be a part of this journey! We got some adorable details about the engagement during their session and its just too cute not to share. When I asked how Jarrod proposed, Jacque told me that they went to breakfast and he had written "Will you marry me?" on a stack of pancakes. She didn't see it at first and he had to keep telling her to look! When she finally did she of course said YES! :) Congratulations you two!
