Rich and Trisha's Engagement Session

Maria and I tend to shy away from more stylized shoots, just cause it's so easy to get so into all the pretty stuff, and focus less on the connection between couples, but these two managed to knock 'em both outta the park; they worked in some beautiful vintage elements (which will be a big part of their wedding day coming up in just a few weeks!) yet still managed to make the afternoon very them. From their Harley, to their love of the outdoors, to their smitten hearts for each other, I think we managed to get it all!

melissa and oggie, a love story

This is Melissa and Oggie, or M'nO as they refer to themselves, they are sooo fantastically romantic! From the moment they met and crushed on Opera together they, they both create and appreciate everything beautiful. Every year they add a piece to their hand painted holiday card collection, this year they are designing the perfect wedding at the perfect location with the absolute perfect meal and wine pairing. Melissa is a true artist, it runs through her like a unstoppable river and Oggie is the appreciator of everything Melissa, it is a beautiful thing.  For their session with us we spent the day at some of the cities finest, starting in the Park, then City Hall, a walk thru the neighborhood to their favorite chocolate store (Robyn's too).


Here are a few from their session...
