So, the Country Boy was scaring the City Girls with stories of rattlesnakes while we shot their engagement session in some tall grass. Thanks pal! It was so fun to get to photograph my friend and her now-fiancee during a very impromptu session - I'm glad we were able to pull it together so last-minute!!

Jessica and Kyle put a lot of time and thought into their engagement session which is evident by the fabulous outfits they chose to wear. How cute are they?? And they made their session so personal. In case you're wondering why they're both looking at their cell phones: one of the things they do is watch their favorite shows and then text back and forth with comments about the show, if they're not watching it together. Maybe they do the same if they ARE actually in the same room??

 

I was so happy to get a call from my friend David telling me that he was planning to propose to his girlfriend and that he might need my help with it......in less than 24 hours. Thankfully I was available and we came up with our sneaky plan and it was sure to go well since I'd never met Amy before so she wouldn't recognize me.

Needless to say, she was totally surprised and in shock when David proposed to her. And I was there to capture the whole thing from a distance.....while hiding behind a light post?

No matter how much planning you put into an event, it's bound to NOT go without a hitch. Never mind that they showed up half an hour later than planned (I was waiting outside and it was COLD) and never mind that he didn't read the part of the text message that said "Sit by the trees because the lighting there is better." Never mind all that.

Congratulations to Amy and David!

I met up with Amy and Ben on a beautiful day up in Conroe. With a list of ideas and a large sampling of wardrobe options, we set off to do as much as we could before the sun went down. As self-proclaimed country bumpkins, we rode all over in a truck and shot at several spots including some great hay bales. And if you're wondering what that odd contraption is that they're standing in front of, it's a hairick. Yep, that's how you pronounce it. Trust me, I'm an expert now. ;)
