Luke & Rebecca | A Glencliff Manor Engagement Session

Lucas and Rebecca met at Liberty University and their love story is simply beautiful. They have incredible chemistry and were so much fun to photograph. I had the honor of photographing their wedding this past weekend, which I absolutely cannot wait to share with you. But first! Their engagement session on the grounds of Glencliff Manor! It's not very often I encourage a late-winter session. For one, the trees are just.... drab. And two, it's super chilly!!! But these two kept things warm with their flirting and dazed-in-love eyes. The epitome of newlyweds (to be)!

I love the way these came out and I credit Rebecca for the extra details you see - her adorable felt hat, the cozy plaid blanket, and the touches of her wedding colors! The tiniest accessories can do SO much to a final shot which makes all the planning ahead SO worth it! Also, a HUGE thanks to the staff at Glencliff Manor for letting us romp around on the grounds for this session!! 

Sooooo sweet, right?! Love these guys! I can't wait to share their entire wedding with you!!

I love Richard & Claire's story. It's one of those that starts... pauses... and starts again. And that again part? It lasts forever.

If you have followed me for long, hopefully you'll recognize this photo. It's one of my all-time favorite pictures I've ever taken. I love it for so many reasons. I'll get to that a little later.

Last weekend, at the Sierra Vista Open House, someone stopped and pointed out that this couple was standing in a soybean field. On his or her first glance, one might think that's an odd choice. Did I put them in some random field just to get some sort of "field-shot?" What's up with the soybeans?

Oh friends... I have been waiting forever to share this wedding on my blog! I really value the opportunity to have my work published, but being published comes with this little detail called exclusivity... so I have to wait to blog the images until after the publications come out. It's hard to wait, but totally worth it, of course!

What a whirlwind! Lauren contacted me less than a month ago and we got together for a yummy lunch and lots of talking about a week later. She is a photographer herself and it is such an honor when another artist with a discerning eye trusts you to capture such an important time in their life!
