I was down in Charlottesville last week for LOOK3 (photo nerd alert!), so Rachel and Dane and I thought it would be a swell time to fit in their engagement photo shoot. These two love birds are getting married on down in Lynchburg later on this year, at what should be the very height of fall colors (fingers crossed!). Last week, though, we braved the heat and skipped around Lynchburg’s really very pretty historic downtown area. And then we did trespassing and Dane found a tick on him, which embarrassed me more than when my car had a flat tire and he changed it for me. It was quite a day, all told. Rachel and Dane:
Heidi and Jason are super mega rad and completely adorable together. They told me they were really nervous about the photo shoot and then as soon as I put them somewhere, they started giggling and hugging and being ridiculously cute. I get the distinct impression this one of those couples people are always rolling their eyes at and secretly jealous of. I’m really excited for their wedding coming up soooooon!
I thrive on variety and exploration, so it’s always a great joy to me when clients take me somewhere new and, most importantly, varied for their engagement sessions. Kaitlin and Andrew walked me through their neighborhood and we explored some murals and parking garages and a park they walk through all the time. It’s great to be able to incorporate meaningful or familiar places into engagement sessions – so pictures are not just from a park, but from our park. Throw on some beautiful evening light and a happy couple and presto:
