Autumn Engagement

By 2 Comments

Marcus and Mindi had their engagement session last week.  It was a chilly yet lovely day and we ventured down to Stillwater to find some fall color.  This is a couple after my own heart, they love the cooler months, and I can’t wait for their January wedding!  Marcus and Mindi make each other laugh constantly, and I wanted to capture that relationship in their images.

Right off the bat, Marcus taught me why you don’t ask a guy with a goatee to kiss someone on the forehead 😉

This was such a colorless autumn, but we found a few pretty colors and I loved the wall textures we found!

Autumn in the Park

Megan and Julie had their engagement session last week.  It was such a beautiful day, with the leaves just starting to change.  We walked around Minnehaha Park looking for cool little spots for images.  The couple wanted a laid back vibe to their images to capture their easy going relationship.

The bling, in nature.

These two have such a sweet bond.  The entire time they were joking around and teasing each other, and constantly laughing.  I got them to snuggle once and a while too =)  I love this blanket shot that Julie thought up.  So sweet!

Megan and Julie, enjoy your sneak peek!  We can’t wait to photograph your wedding next year!

Autumn Kiss

Sean and Sara had their engagement session this evening.  With a deep love of nature and hiking through the woods together, it only made sense to head out to one of their favorite parks to find some fall color.  We braved the cold and even a flurry or two and it was worth it!

At the end of the session, Sean and Sara put on the camp t-shirts to honor the place where they met.

As the sun set, we enjoyed the peace near the river, it was such a lovely night.

This may be the best blog title ever…thanks Astrid!

Patrick and Carrie had their engagement session today.  When this country boy met this city girl, I don’t think he quite knew what he was getting into…and the adventures are just beginning!  This was his (and my) first time on a sailboat and it was such a gorgeous day for it.  The couple started off with a glass of vino and then it was off to the boat that Carrie had raced on for a bit of time.

Patrick was a champ and made it through all the kissing pictures without complaints 😉

I took advantage of the bright sun, making some portraits blown out and full of light and others utilizing the silhouette.

Patrick and Carrie, what a fun afternoon, thank you so much for having your esession be such an adventure!  Enjoy your sneak peek!

Spring Rain

Justin and Katie had their engagement session today!

Though we started the session in the rain, it gave way to a fine mist and we enjoyed a beautiful spring morning.  The filtered light made the new green leaves and bright tulips pop, and everything was so beautiful even Justin started taking pictures.

These two were so laid back and fun…I had a great time getting to know them as we drove around looking for beautiful little pieces of nature to use as a backdrop.

Justin and Katie, enjoy your sneak peek!
