We started the session outside, where the forecast of snow in Silverdale ended up as only a dusting of frost across the grass. After a bit of chilly weather photos, we headed back inside the studio for some portraits of her beautiful pregnancy curves. A few more outside on the waterfront as the water was just so serene, and this session was a wrap. I’m anxious to meet their little one, who should be here in a few more weeks 
This couple was a lot of fun to photograph and to be around. When I’m doing a lifestyle / casual style session like this, its more about directing rather than posing. They were so quick to interact with one another on their own, creating a situation that is natural and resulting in a photograph that is genuine and emotional. I have a feeling their baby boy will be smiling during his session too with all of the love and laughter this couple shares.

I like to get to know a little bit about someone before a session so that I can make the experience about them. Since he’s a pilot in the Air Force and they both enjoy flying, I thought it would be fun to start off by making paper airplanes. Up for anything, it turned out to be a great way to get to know them better. My favorite question to ask is, “So how did you two meet?” because its usually answered with a giggle, a smile, and then their unique story. It was so great getting to meet them and share their together-time before he headed back. Thank goodness for hand warmers, a beautiful sunset, and a wonderful couple which made this session a favorite of mine. Hang tight while the images load, I had a hard time narrowing down the images for a post. Can you tell I’m a sucker for a kissy picture?
Such a great couple to photograph and get to know. When we talked about their wedding plans, the groom-to-be immediately mentioned that he knew exactly the cake he wanted, but I forgot to ask what KIND of cake…any guesses? Their pups Rocco and Luna were so funny, even though they had been on a walk to tire them out earlier in the day, they were far from exhausted. I just have to share the one of them sitting still because it didn’t last long…I still giggle when I think of Rocco’s cheeks popping as he sniffed the ground…too cute!
I attended a workshop yesterday by Amanda K Photography. We had a full day of information, discussion, and a live shoot with 3 seniors and 2 couples (you couldn’t tell they weren’t professional models, because they were just awesome!) Workshop leaders – Katie & Brandon – are true mentors and I had an AMAZING time!
It was chilly outside, but we certainly had a great time during this session. I didn’t even have to work to make them smile or to love on each other…after 36 years they still act like newlyweds!
Quite a pair…the shoes AND the couple. This session seemed like I was shooting for a fashion magazine… FUN!
