Over Christmas break, a friend texted me, with however much giddiness you can text, that she was engaged! I cried. I knew it was coming sometime in the near future but had no idea it would be then. I've known her for several years, watched her grow into a wonderful young woman and watched this love blossom from the beginning.
This past weekend, you know.....Polar Vortex weekend.....she asked if I could meet up with them to photograph them in the snow. I was a little nervous but so excited that she had asked me! I hadn't really picked up my camera much since September. I had started to feel like I had lost all desire to use a lens and a memory card. Things were mostly contained chaos at our house the latter part of 2013, and photography was pretty much at the bottom of the priority list.
The night before I was to meet up with them I started scouring Pinterest for some ideas. I am always able to find good ideas but not always able to remember them when I get to the shoot. So I saved them to my camera roll on my phone this time so that they would be easy to find. Of course I didn't really remember to look at it except for maybe one time. But it didn't matter, because she had come armed with the best ideas anyway! These two made this shoot so fun! I can see why photographers love to shoot weddings. The full-blown wedding makes me completely nervous, but I would love to do the engagement part - such fun!
So my hope was that I would be able to get at least two good shots for them to be able to use. And her posing ideas turned out really adorable, so I think we met the goal.
And I believe my love for photography has been rekindled.
Thanks for tromping around in the snow with me you two!

They turned out amazing and as soon as I saw them, I knew you had been the photographer. You are truly talented in this area girl.
