Christal + Conor: Finding the Urban in the Country

Christal knew she wanted some "urban appeal" in her engagement photos, but logistics of work schedules, commutes and commitments can sometimes make a trip to the city somewhat unappealing for a busy couple.  I knew, instead, we could find funkiness in our own backyard so to speak and we did:   quite literally starting off in Christal and Conor's backyard.  (I could have done their whole session there with that delicious light! -- perfection.)  Architecture that had always caught my eye figured into the session next.  I'm certain Christal and Conor thought I was nuts as I pointed out what may have appeared as random locations and then put them through their paces to capture the images only I could see in my mind's eye.  Despite any possible skepticism though, Christal's reaction during her viewing session told me she was happy with what she was seeing:  it's a good sign a bride likes her photos when she cries.  So looking forward to photographing your wedding next, Christal + Conor!  xox
