Chelsey +Keaton :: Love

We were blessed to meet up with Chelsey + Keaton last week for their Engagement session! It got us out of our house and back into photographing again. It's been a while since we went outside! Of all the adjectives I could use to describe the session today, "warm" would not be one of them! It was pretty cold, but Chelsey + Keaton were great! We worked with them by the house they are soon moving into, and their sweet little cabin, which sits right by the river. One of the things they mentioned they do together is snowmobiling, so we finished the session with a few scenes with their sleds.

Chelsey + Keaton, we had fun hanging out with you guys!

Hailey + Quinn :: Love

We met up with Hailey + Quinn with the goal being to get some great outdoorsy photos for their engagement session, complete with a campfire and marshmallows.  The sun actually stayed up longer than we thought, so we had some really great natural light for most of the session.  

Sarah + Craig :: Love

Sarah is the greatest laugher. Seriously. She laughs easily, and it's contagious. Even when I was editing the images, I couldn't help but smile as I looked at these. And Craig is the master at getting her to laugh. Every time we told him to make her laugh.... couldn't have been better.

They love riding bikes and doing outdoorsy things together, so we planned the session to reflect that.

Beth + Zac :: Love

We had a few locations picked out for Beth + Zac, but we ended up never leaving the parking garage area. We did have to wonder, though, if last Friday was "Grumpy Old Person" day. We were working a scene in a stairwell, and the few people that had to go around us seemed to be just ticked off that they had to wait nearly 15 seconds for us to move out of their way. Lighten up, people!

Cassie + Thad :: Love

Did anyone else have a crazy Memorial Day weekend? Mine seemed to come and go before I knew what happened. Next thing I know, it's Wednesday and I missed my routine Monday blog post.

Cassie and Thad were a lot of fun to work with, seriously. Thad is a fisherman, so they wanted to theme their engagement session around fishing. Our neighbors happen to have a sweet little pond, and were happy to let us come over. Cassie + Thad, we enjoyed working with you guys, and we wish you all the best!

Then we hit the studio for some ISU vs Iowa photos... that's when the tension started rising. :)

Angie + Nick :: Love

Angie + Nick got into our mini-van with us, and our 5 year old Jackson ran outside and stopped us as we started the van. "Dad... (seeing the couple in the back of the van)... um, why do you need to make money?" I'm sure our faces turned red, and Angie + Nick started to laugh as we quickly tried to remind him that money helps buy food, pay for our cars, gas, and to live in our house. He seemed to agree, and apparently the answer satisfied him, so he shouted "bye Dad, bye Mom" and scampered off! What a kid!

Anyway, we had fun with Angie + Nick. They're having an outdoor wedding this summer and we are excited about that! Love me some outdoor weddings!
