Vanessa & Jeremy Outtakes

So I recently developed the film from Jeremy & Vanessa's photo shoot, and I'm actually more pleased with these photos than the others. What is it with me? Am I just completely wedded to film, forever destined to be better at this than digital? Am I hallucinating here? What do y'all think?

I particularly love the vingetting with the HOLGA--it's so perfect for a willow tree and a couple photo.

Brian & Kristi get engaged!

One day, Brian proposed to Kristi, and she said yes!

The two of them contacted me about photography for their wedding day, and also asked for an engagement session. Friendly, down-to-earth people, they requested that we take photos in Patapsco State Park, because they loved the woods and being in the outdoors.

I love photographing in the outdoors, of course; the natural beauty of the world can so easily enhance the romance of a couple! When we went for our session, it was very hot, but Kristi and Brian bore the heat like real troopers, and we all had a phenomenal time.

And here, my favorite intimate moment.

I want to offer thanks to the couple for letting me photograph them, and kudos to my pal Jim, who assisted in some of the expert post-production of the shoot. The whole session can be viewed here.
