Opal & Cole:
I met Opal and Cole a few weeks ago and am very excited for their wedding this August! Along with wedding photography, they hired me to shoot an engagement session as well. I love doing engagements, especially for couples who have booked me for their wedding. It helps me get to know their styles and personalities; it better prepares me for capturing great images on their wedding day. It also helps the couples get to know me better as well...getting a better feel for my style and how I work.
Many times I've asked my clients to bring along any ideas or poses that they have thought of or seen that they themselves would like see in their own shots. By doing this, I know the feel they are looking for and can judge where their comfort level lies, all the while adding my own creative flair and artistic touch. Rarely do clients take me up on this offer...Not the case with Opal and Cole.
Cole came prepared with many images. He knew exactly what he wanted...and I loved it! This engagement shoot lies at the top of my favorites. They are such a fun loving couple and very passionate about each other. We broke our session up into two...meeting in the morning at Cedar Creek and then reconvening on the Plaza later that evening. It was a great day...and a great shoot. I am so excited about these images as well as the ones to be captured on their wedding day!
