We photographed Danielle and Blake's Engagement session in downtown Bryan, and it was fantastic. They are such a warm and natural couple, that engagement photographs were a piece of cake. The air was cool, the colors were vibrant, and chemistry hot. Full success. Enjoy this textured modern engagement session.

Now, these images are just a few from this engagement session we did with Haley + Mike a while back. I've been looking at these photos for a couple of weeks now as we've been doing some custom product for them. Teaser - there will be more show and tell for those! But, no matter how much I've been looking at these portraits I am still just so happy with how they came out. The colors, the love, the light all make me so proud of this session. Bamboo is not something that is typically associated with the Brazos Valley or really even love, but I think it works. Also, the sunflowers and the light working together like that, what the what!

Looking forward to photographing more of these two at their wedding in October!

Time has formed into one big blob of poopies, baby sneezes, and naps/no naps. Lots and lots of coffee and I am back to one of my loves, the blog. 

We had the opportunity to photograph Dana and Jonathan a couple weeks (months? more?) ago.  And I must say, they are just delightful. Beyond being just cuter than a button nose on a parakeet (I'm headed into my second latte with that last analogy), these two are some of the warmest kindest and most genuine folks we've gotten to work with. 

I'm not going to lie, their session was hotter than the surface of the sun. We were all sweating like crazy out there, but somehow we were blessed with finding the shade, the random sweet sweet breeze, and a good giggle every once and again. But, through it all these two managed to just look stunning, (I'll say it) sexy-fied, and just absolutely ga-ga over each other. I love Dana's modern vintage style with that (seafoam?) dress, and Jonathan's british swagger. Also, I love how they were like, "Sure, abandoned burned out building? Sounds great! What's that, ghetto laundormat? Count us in!" 

Enjoy.

I mean, you just cannot look at them and not smile. So, enjoy some smiles before the holiday weekend everyone!

I decided to break their session into two posts, because I love them all equally and wanted to share some work from their family time as well as their time alone. 

So, today I leave you with John+Jessica, alone and engaged to be married very soon. We had a such a wonderful time running all over God's green earth ( this session is so country, I'm evening sounding country now:) with them, enjoy!

Did I mention we had horses too?! LOVE these absolutely stunning portraits of Jessica and John's horse. 

Be looking forward to a post soon including the cutie kids too! Happy weekend everyone.
