Seriously I don't even know where to start... these photos are just amazing. I say this alot haha, but there is just something about this engagement session that makes me soooooo happy that I chose to learn photography. I enjoy photographing children, families, weddings, etc... but my FAVORITE things to photograph are engagement sessions! I love to tell stories and since no one will ever dress in costume for me, engagements are the next best thing!
Now if you know me, you know I'm not exactly romantic. I prefer sarcasm to show off my love of others, and I loathe people who hold hands in public because it gives my husband the impression that hand holding is acceptable behavior, and I beg to differ. So oddly enough, I LOVE capturing romance and REAL pure love with my camera. Since my faith in God is the number one most important part of my life, photographing couples who also have that faith in God is even more inspiring.
That being said, I introduce you to Faith (perfect name for this post haha) and Christopher! Faith is in my girls' Bible study, and I love her because she is so much like me (except for the non-romantic gene obviously), and she is so much fun to be around. She has known Christopher for most of her life, and after many failed attempts at a long distance relationship throughout their adolescent life, they finally reconnected! I don't even think I have to tell any more of the story, you can obviously see their passion and love for each other in these photos.
We drove all over the 1,000 islands region to get these photos, and I could have continued all night! I might have went a little overboard with the number of photos I took but it was so worth it! We started at a friend's property with a cozy little cabin, then got into the Christmas spirit (yes this blog post is way overdue... typical), and ended up at Monaghan's Irish Pub in Clayton to celebrate their Irish heritage and to continue with a cozy, intimate setting. The owner of Monaghan's was super hospitable to us and let us take over his pub for some more great photos!
Ok I'm done talking. I hope you fall as in love with these photos as I have!
Faith & Christopher
