Can I just say, I fell in love with these two the minute I met them. They told me that they wanted to have a session in a natural setting (wood, greenery, water) rather than one with an industrial feel (brick, iron, city life)...so we ventured to a little spot, which will remain unnamed for now...cause I don't want anyone to steal my spot...selfish, I know...but it was so perfect and pretty much untouched... So, Joey said to me about three minutes after we met, "You're not gonna make me climb any trees, are you?!" I laughed and said, "Not unless you want to..." Then we start to head into the forest and wow... an enourmous tree had fallen and created a bridge like structure and guess who was the first one climbing up that trunk? Yes, Joey, Kayla followed like a champ. It was like they couldn't resist, I didn't even say a word, I just watched them climb and smiled. After a little while, I even decided to climb up there myself, cameras and all. That is when I got that shot up there in the bottom right corner. I did not pose them for this, they were all nestled and comfy on their own in each others arms. (And you two said you didn't know what you were doing?!) On the way back to the car, I was a little nervous about asking them to go jump into the tall grass, but we walked by a place that I had stopped once before on the way in...I think Kayla could read me because she offered to stop there again before I even asked. She jumped in the grass with flip flops like it was nothin. Snapped that pic up there on the bottom left, LOVE IT. It's funny because sometimes I see something, but then scrap the idea thinking it would be uncomfortable for them or maybe they would think I am crazy...but I love it when my couples give me their trust, it allows me to create some great images. So, my hats off to you, Joey and Kayla, for allowing me to laugh with you and have such a fun time. You look great in your pics and I can't wait for your wedding!

Joey & Kayla's Engagement
Can I just say, I fell in love with these two the minute I met them.
