Shannon & Brant are Engaged!!!

A warm spring evening... winds blowing from the west, and two beautiful people in front of my lens. Now that's the way to spend a Friday night!
The weather played with me all day long, will we be able to shoot or won't we? And just as the clocks struck 6pm the skies cleared and the sun popped through the clouds just long enough for me and my new friends to capture so really fun shots!
Dressed to kill in a gorgeous Anne Klein dress, Shannon was all laughs as she played with her hair and smiled the most infectious smile... Brant is one lucky man indeed!
So, as requested, we met out at my favorite warehouse for some picture taking... here is a sneak peek at what we captured...
Thanks for the great time you two... can't wait for the wedding!

Trash the Dress!!!

Picture this... it's late afternoon. A bride and groom celebrating their new union. The ceremony was moving, the reception... long. Now, as the sun sets on another glorious wedding day, the happy couple take a moment to be alone as they drive off into their future.

It's 4 hours later and on a back alley they find themselves lost. The engine is overheating and so is the groom. They get out to address the issue when things get hot, steamy... greasy???
By the time it is all said and done they are minus one white dress, one designer tux, and a whole lot of oil.
Thanks for the fabulous "Trash the Dress" session Crystal & Daniel. I couldn't imagine a better couple to go play with on a Sunday afternoon~
Enjoy your images!!!
