Happily Engaged

You might recognize the girl in these photos.  I just posted pictures of her family!  She decided that she liked what I did so much, that she wanted me to do her engagement photos as well.  She and her fiancee were so much fun and really willing to try anything.  They even got on top of the rock waterfall, BAREFOOT, for some interesting pictures!

I had such a hard time narrowing down which photos I would show here. It took a while, but I finally narrowed it down to six.

This picture’s shutter speed was 1/125, f-stop at 8. My focal length was 52mm.

This picture’s shutter speed was 1/320, f-stop at 5. My focal length was 105mm.

This picture’s shutter speed was 1/500, f-stop at 5.6. My focal length was 200mm.  This one, I wanted to do something special with it.  I think it was my most favorite picture of them.  They weren’t posing, they were being totally natural and whispering to each other.  It was such a sweet moment that I took extra time with the post-processing and made it look a bit, “nostalgic”.  That is why the colors look more like a 60′s or 70′s print than the other pictures do.

This picture’s shutter speed was 1/1600, f-stop at 5. My focal length was 55mm.

This picture’s shutter speed was 1/500, f-stop at 4. My focal length was 55mm.

This picture’s shutter speed was 1/160, f-stop at 5. My focal length was 68mm.

A Big, Fun Family

This family was incredible to work with.  They all had smiles on their faces (even though the breeze outside made everyone shiver) no matter what I asked them to do.  They were great to work with and I even had one of the girls ask me to do her engagement pictures.  I took these in January and am just now to the point where I can post them.  Of course, they got their cd of pictures a long time ago!
