Beautiful Day with a Beautiful Girl

It's amazing how every shoot is so different and yet the same. No matter if you shoot a location several times, you always seem to find new areas. Plus, there is always something new to learn. Such is life.

This shoot was no different. We had a great day. Plenty of ambient light, fair weather and two wonderful locals. We started off in the West Bottoms and Keslie was awesome. Extremely easy to work with and took everything in stride, standing in an alley with the wind blowing hard and cold while I set up my lights. Not to mention her Mom and boyfriend had to endure as well. What troopers. (Yeah that was cheesy, I know).

Now being the generous people we are, we also let her b/f , Ryan, sit in on some of the photos as well. Aren't we just wonderful. He too was really good to work with, heck after we finished at the West Bottoms and made a quick jaunt down to Liberty Memorial, he even held the strobes when the wind threatened to blow them to Oz.

Not too much left to say, but it was an excellent shoot. Below are a small sampling of the session. If you what to view more, go to our Facebook page. Plus, if you become a fan you will be notified when new sessions our posted. Now go on and do it, I know you want to. Who doesn't like looking at gorgeous photography. I'm not bias. Well, maybe just a little. Thanks for reading.

Marra & Mike's Breezy Engagement Session

Ok, who said that October could have extremely drastic weather? One day the weather is awesome and the next dreadful. Although, we push forward.

October 11th was an unusually cool day and made for a brisk photo session, however, Marra and Mike were troopers and braved the cool winds to for their engagement session. Just to give you an idea of what they went through, my wife and I had on hoodies and jackets while they had to take off their jackets for some of the photos. It was interesting watching them go from a slight shiver to acting warm fuzzy when we released the shutter.

We started in a park in Lee's Summit were the couple wanted to have some photos of their dogs taken. Well, let's just say dogs have their own way of posing and you just go with the flow. After, the dogs we shot some more at the park and being the nice guy that I am, I let Mike put on his jacket so he could stay warm. (awh.)

Once the park was done, the couple did an outfit change and we headed to the West Bottoms. Now that was fun. This is were we captured some of the best photos of the couple. Their clothes, modern and sleek, gave a great contrast to the old decrepit buildings. Well, you can see that for yourself.

All in all, it was a great shoot, barring the 45 degree temps and 15mph winds. Thank you Marra and Mike for a great session and thanks for reading.
