The day of Ashley & Tyler's engagement session started with a series of emails and texts questioning the weather outlook. Hopeful for a break in the rain, I packed up my gear, picked up Robin*, and watched the sky turn from dark to darker as we headed out to Southwood. Luck was on our side because there was a break in the rain long enough to wrap up the session with a beautiful sunset. During the especially dark times during their session the images reflected dramatic romance and two different looks to the session.
To share what is so special about Ashley and Tyler is really impossible to do unless you meet them. Sure, you can easily tell from the pictures that Ashley is classically beautiful with blond hair, blue eyes, and a smile that literally does light up the room whole wide world. From the pictures you can also tell Tyler a good looking guy who radiates honesty for everyone to see.
What the pictures won't show you is the important stuff: how Tyler is the elusive southern gentleman of our generation with a firm handshake and positive nature about him. Or how Ashley is so sweet and genuine with her words that you feel at home the instant you meet her. Together their laughter is harmonious and almost musical, their hands fit perfectly together as if they were made to hold one another, and when they kiss it is as if the whole world has disappeared from around them. You can't make this stuff up and you're a lucky person if you find it in your own life.
Thank you Ashley and Tyler for choosing me as your wedding photographer. I am so excited to be a part of such wedding you are creating...May of 2014 cannot get here soon enough!
*Robin is one of my 2nd shooters but I would consider her to be more of a co-shooter. Ashley and Tyler designed a wedding package that include Robin's time on their wedding day and for their engagement session.
