Michelle and JC | Engagement!

Have I ever told you that I LOVE shooting engagement sessions?? It's true :) They are so relaxed, which lets us just have fun and be creative, without worrying about much at all. Not to mention, we get to spend a couple of hours getting to know our couples before their big day, which is truly priceless. That's why our wedding coverage automatically includes an engagement session... for everyone!

Anyway, we recently had the pleasure of shooting Michelle and JC's engagement photos. I met Michelle last year at a wedding which she was helping coordinate for a friend, and I asked her if she'd be interested in helping me with my own wedding. Luckily, she agreed, and my wedding ran incredibly smoothly thanks to her! She has such a sweet personality and I just adore her! So, when JC proposed to her, I was so excited that she asked Eric and I to be her photographers! JC is an avid golfer, so he made the brilliant suggestion to go to Audobon Country Club. It's absolutely beautiful there! We jumped in a couple golf carts and just started driving around the course, stopping whenever one of us saw something amazing. Here are a few favorites from the day... Enjoy!

The colors, the contrast, the sharpness, the exposures... everything in this set is divine.
Amazing work.

Definitely a perfect ending. I love this session! The 4th one down is a favorite. I love the shots you get of "pieces"--just feet, parts of bodies, etc. Their bodies tell the story. Just beautiful.
