Newly Engaged


Here are a few of the engagement photos I took for friends on Saturday. I was completely shocked / honored that they asked me to photograph them (I am seriously such an amateur), but photography has quickly become one of my most favorite passions so I thoroughly enjoyed the afternoon! I was a little nervous they wouldn't like the photos, but good news - they do ... :)





And my favorite out-takes:


{brushing an eyelash off her cheek}


{the moment I fell into a bush}


{just so happy}

Ohmigosh Alicia these are phenomenal pictures. I love how sentimental they appear given the fact that you were able to capture the sweet moments between them - the brushing of the eyelash off the cheek and such. They are so adorable! Amazing work, my love!! :)
