Katelyn and Jeremy Engagement Session
What an amazing session Shea and I had with Katelyn and Jeremy. It was like the perfect day, wrapped up in the perfect date and then topped with a cherry!! I can not wait to photograph their wedding this fall. So when I photograph and engagement session, I treat it like a date night, so what better way to start a date than at the best custard and coffee stand in the area, Nana’s on Hixson Pike. I treated our two love birds to a banana split and then watched to see if they were ready for the “sharing factor” of marriage. I’m happy to say that they passed with flying colors!!! Take a look!!!
After the ice creamed AWESOMENESS, it was time to take a stroll downtown were an older concrete stair case caught my eye. It looked terribly romantic and was perfect for our happy go lucky couple!! A couple kissing poses, and the occasional, “Don’t make me hose you off!!!” threats and we captured some pretty nice shots. Check them out and let me know what you think in the comments below:)
So as we left the stairs, and turned left around the corner to head back to our vehicles… I saw a perceptive that caught my eye, so I wiped out my Sigma Art 135 1.8 lens and caught these shots of them, being them… Don’t get me wrong, I love posed shots, but nothing is better than a couple just being themselves. Here are some samples from that stop.
It was time to head to our third and final location. Katelyn had showed my her outfit, a cute little sun dress and Jeremy was rocking out the button up look. So if you notice, I love takes outfits out of context to create a exceptional shot that draws the attention straight to the subject of the photograph. For example, their first outfit was very casual, laid back… so we went downtown, somewhere that you wouldn’t see laid back casual outfits, mostly business suites and fancy clothing for a night out… Well with this outfit, the perfect place came to mind. So we headed up Hixson Pike, back toward my studio to the BEAUTIFUL Field, next door. Take a look at the lighting that we captured as Golden hour was on its way:)
Last but certainly not least, while in the field, Shea and I decided to set up are stone flashes to create a more dramatic feel as the sun was continuing its journey down. After making out adjustments to the light power and settings, we captured a ton of great shots. Here are some samples from the more dramatic lighting in the field.
All and all we had such great time and would like to thank Katelyn and Jeremy for choosing Shea and I to capture this special time in their life. We are really looking forward to Katelyn’s pre-wedding bridal session coming up in only a couple short days!!! You guys are fantastic and I hope you enjoy your images:)
