Meredith & Miles Engagement

I was so happy to meet up with Meredith and Miles for their engagement session in November. I love their style and how their genuine connection with one another translates so well in camera. They brought their sweet pup Lola to the session who has a great personality for the camera and loved our walk through the woods. I cannot wait to do it all over again for their wedding in 2015!

Pretty sure Lola is sticking her tongue out at the camera here ;)

Amanda & Mike Engagement

I had a fantastic time photographing Amanda and Mike a few months ago for their engagement session! I love their vibrant smiles and connection with one another. I know their wedding will be an amazing day in 2015!

 

Heather & Matt {Engagement}

Matt and Heather are personally connected to me in two ways, though we have never met before they booked their wedding with me last year. One of Heather’s best friend’s happens to be one of my childhood best friends who I lost contact with once we graduated high school. In fact, Heather brought Trinity along for the booking consultation and it was great to see her and swap stories about our family and life today. Matt and my husband were great friends for years as well and Lord knows these two would be busy for hours telling stories from those days! Being that I am a nice person I am going to let all those stories from our past remain in the past here on the blog, ha!

The generous amount of rain this spring had already rescheduled Heather and Matt’s engagement session twice before we finally met. Although it was raining the day we met, we weren't postponing again and agreed on extending an hour of their wedding day coverage in exchange for a 15 minute e-session outside before the rain chased us to our cars again. Lucky for me, these guys are pretty great at being comfortable with one another and I just stood back letting them play out the scenes as I directed them from afar. Matt, like most guys, was a little weary at first about what an engagement session was all about but he caught on quickly to what he had to do to get the shots that would make Heather light up with happiness.

I can’t wait to share Heather and Matt’s story with you on the blog after their wedding at Golden Eagle in May. You can LIKE my Facebook page HERE to be notified when their wedding blog will be posted! 

Jessica & Will {Engagement}

Growing up, there was nothing better than waking up to a really dark and gloomy thunderstorm…but now? Well, nothing is worse than writing the “I am not cancelling your session…yet…but it isn't looking too good” email that I know every client dreads on the day of their photo session! Lucky for Jessica and Will, one hour after the dreaded bad email was sent, the skies cleared and the sun graced us with warmth, light, and the go ahead on shooting their engagement session. 

What I love most about Jessica is the way she laughs…but not just that, I love that she laughs at pretty much everything! With a vibrant spark for life, Jessica knows exactly what she wants and plans for success. Most come naturally to her since she is a teacher here in Leon County…I can imagine that her classroom is efficient and full of fun! At our consultation, we talked about what to wear and locations for her engagement session and she took the ideas and ran with them. I loved how the final product was perfect: classic and colorful!

Will, quiet and observant, knows exactly what to say to make Jessica glow with happiness and love.  Willing to do whatever takes to get the job done, he stepped up his game and rocked it with Jessica for their engagement session. Like most guys, this wasn't his thing, but knowing how much it meant to his finance he was going to have a great time with it because that’s what you do when you're in love!

Jessica & Will, I am so happy for you both and know that you guys will keep laughing together for the rest of your life! Your summer wedding at Honey Lake Plantation is going to be absolutely amazing and I cannot wait to be there to document the day from start to finish for you guys.
