Today I had a fabulous session with a fellow artist and his fine woman! We have soooo many very unique ideas for their engagement photography, so we are having to break all our ideas into several sessions. Today we dedicated to a semi-normal engagement session. I say semi-normal...because I don't think Kyle is capable of normal. Neither am I. Made for some awesome photography!

So, I often think I freak out my clients...so this was no different. We were coming back from our session when I screamed, "PULL OVER!" as we were on a curved on ramp to the highway. I'm just glad both Kyle and Ashley are super cool and all about the photos...100% committed. LOVE THEM! Can't wait to do next week's session. It will by super different. ;)

So, How crazy is it that this is my 7th time photographing this family. In fact, Natalynn was in Lacy's tummy for our first session. I LOVE IT!!! Tomorrow is Natalynn's 3rd birthday! HAPPY BIRTHDAY!







By the way...kuddos to Lacy for the awesome clothing choice! It's perfect!

And Tyler thought he had the day off. HAHA! NEVER! I had him holding props, jackets, and he was my lighting assistant. :)

Ready or not...here I come!



I can feel the breeze as I look at this picture, can't you?!

Dog pile on dad on the swing! I waited and waited and waited...those chains are pretty strong.

This shot makes me think of the photography 2/3rds rule.

Little higher Natalynn...



Tyler stays in shape by his personally developed new form of free weights.

My goodness...did it just jump 10 degree hotter with this picture?

I was first contacted by Lauren's mother a couple months ago, explaining she was helping her daughter plan her wedding...since Lauren and her fiance we working hard on fixing up their sail boat, preparing it for their two-year adventure around the world. Yes...you read correct...TWO YEARS, SAILING THE WORLD! WHOA!
Lauren and Dallas are one amazing couple. Definitely MFEO! They have had a very long, and sometimes distant relationship and they have finally sealed the deal and will be taking a 2yr honeymoon. AMAZING!

Thus...the ring shot.










Apart from having conversation over the phone and a brief meeting Tuesday, I didn't know Lauren and Dallas all that well. I learned quickly. They, and ALL of their friends and family, are 100% genuine and commited. The best way to describe Lauren and Dallas on their wedding day...was undistracted. That really is HUGE...there's so much to do, things always run late, people are missing, jewelry is misplaced...nothing, I mean NOTHING distracted Lauren and Dallas from having the most sentimental and special wedding day.

This was a shot I snagged right after they had a special moment alone, seeing each other for the first time that day.


And on to the glamourousness....













Here's the guys "serious & sexy" look. :)

Can I just mention it was FLIPPIN' COLD!

Jackson have us some nice entertainment value during our formal portraits.

The Richerson Family rockin' out.

They exited the warm church into a fridgid outside, but warm welcoming of guests.

Laaaauuurreeennn.... this is not belly-button height. haha! :)

As cold as it was...it really was a beautiful day.

On to the reception...

YUM YUM





I actually didn't notice these until an hour or so after being at the reception. Lauren and Dallas marked each table with one of their ports during their upcoming adventure. There was one other port, but unfortunately, by the time I got to that table, it was MIA.







Lauren's talented friend, Julia, performed for their first dance as husband and wife. It was the most perfect first dance song.





This was fun...one last "freeze-your-butt-off" picture. I didn't notice it at the time, but my husband pointed out today that it apprears the folks inside were peeping at us (thus the hand on the window above Lauren's knee).

I believe Lauren told me that they leave tomorrow to start their adventure. I wish them the best best, and can't wait to keep updated on their trip via their website.
