Jackie & Mike | Dinosaur Land engagement photos | White Post, Virginia

Children, never give up on your dreams because you never know when they might come true. One of mine did recently: photograph an engagement session at Dinosaur Land. Jackie wrote me asking if I might “be interested” in photographing her and Mike at the prehistoric forest way out in the country, filled with awesomely campy giant fiberglass dinosaurs from the 60s. Um, shit yes I was. So we made it happen. And it was glorious.

Nothing says love quite like a giant bug-eyed octopus.

Ok, not gonna lie. This shoot was actually really challenging. It was hard to avoid cheese. So we just pretty much went full-on dorktastic. It was mega-fun.

And a few nice ones, gotta do it.

The whole place is all dinosaurs except for King Kong, inexplicably towering over everything.

Congratulations, guys! Thanks for making my wishes come true!
