Leslie and Ross Portrait Session

Leslie and Ross were so adorable to photograph! This is the first of many great images from our session this past weekend, and I'm having so much fun going through them. Thanks for a wonderful time, guys!

Engagement photos

I recently had the privilege to do an engagement photo session with Megan and Erik. They are getting married in May and were so in love and sweet together- it was a pleasure to photograph them! They were both really patient with my newbie-ishness to doing portraiture. I mean, this was the first time I did a session with non-friends! I'm really happy with the results and wish them all the best!

Trust

A couple of months ago one of my friends showed a great deal of trust in me- she asked me to take pictures of her family together, including her baby bump.

*gulp*

That is a lot of trust and a lot of responsibility! I'm not a professional- just a passionate hobbyist! And since this was partly a maternity shoot, it isn't like we could try again at any time- I needed to get at least a few images right the first time!!

But I agreed, prefacing my agreement with "Well, they may not  be fabulous, but they'll definitely be free!".

So a time was set and off we went! I'm pretty pleased with how the entire thing went off, though I did learn a lot about shooting portrait photography. I'm just glad that I am friends with them- otherwise I'd have been way too jittery to do this at all!

Here are some of my favorite shots from the shoot.
