Engagement in the Country

 When deciding what my very first blog should be it was really a pretty easy decision. One of my favorite shoots recently was with Buddy and Cassi. This couple is getting married in September of 2012 and right away we hit it off because there are many similarities with this couple and my husband and I. I think it is evident from the pictures not only their love for each other but also the great outdoors. Buddy is an avid hunter and spends time preparing his land (which he was gracious enough to let us shoot on), capturing trail cam photos of his deer, and of course hunting! Cassi is more of a city girl, like myself but also appreciates hunting and herself has taken a deer with a bow which I thought was really impressive! I tried to pull a bow back once, hurt my shoulder and never tried it again! I am looking forward to having the privilege of capturing the memories of this wonderful couple's wedding day and continuing the friendship we have started. I am so thankful for fun, easy going couples. It is down to earth people like Buddy and Cassi that remind me why I love photography. It is not about perfection or impressing people. It is about creating a window into the lives of the people in the photo where it is evident their personality and relationship with each other. The natural, unposed laughter that drives me on in this profession...
