I’ll be honest, I used to not enjoy taking engagement pictures. But the last few months it has become one of my favorite things to shoot! I realized that it’s such a good opportunity to get to know the couple so that on the wedding day things flow super smooth. So last Sunday when I met up with Cherie, I also got to meet JJ for the first time. What I learned about him is that he’s super chivalrous, sweet, and loves Cherie like crazy! He kept trying to carry my equipment and he didn’t complain once about spending the entire afternoon taking pictures. (including 3 outfit changes) I can’t wait for your World Golf Village wedding on January 2! It’s coming up so soon! Enjoy your sneak peek, the rest will be up soon!
I asked a couple if we could borrow their bikes for a shot. Cherie thought I was crazy to ask, but I guess over the years I’ve started to be a little braver when it comes to getting the shot that I want. 🙂 I think I learned that from my daddy!
I usually have a favorite from a shoot, and I think this is it for me:
I have never commented before, but I have been viewing your blog for awhile now (I went to Terry Parker with your sister, but she may not remember me). Anyway, Cherie is one of my best friends. I am a bridesmaid in her wedding in January. I love the pictures you took of the two of them. You really captured their love for each other! Cherie really enjoyed working with you and I can’t wait to work with you in January!
Ok, so bed rest has turned me into a COMPLETE blog stalker—but I can”t help it. These are amazing pictures–the color, the final editing–just beautiful. I think my favorite is the vertical one against the Fort wall–I have a thing for wall pics I guess. You have outdone yourself again!
PS~ I posted baby pics on FB!
