Today’s engagement session with Lela and Chris rounded out our triple-header of shooting over the weekend. And we truly felt we hit a home run with this wonderful couple. They drove quite a ways to meet us for the session, and as soon as we’d gotten out of the car, they were each there to greet us with open arms and warm hugs. Though the skies were overcast, we knew it was going to be an incredible day.
After sitting to talk and get better reacquainted to go over their wedding plans and timeline, we got our gear together and began walking towards an ivy-covered stone wall. It might not at first have looked like the ideal spot to many for the beginning of our photo shoot, but we thought it was perfect. Lela and Chris hardly even needed prompting from us, because they immediately fell into a fit of simultaneous giggling, holding and squeezing. We made sure to capture it all.
Lela mentioned something to us that was completely untrue, however: She said she didn’t feel she was photogenic. We found that to be extremely inaccurate! When a couple is relaxed and simply enjoying their time together and naturally demonstrating their love for one another, there is no such thing as an unphotogenic person. Lela and Chris have this incredible bond between them that we felt immediately, and it helped them both shine in front of the camera. We feel so privileged to have had the chance to capture so many beautiful sides to their personalities. They are TOTALLY photogenic, and it was a complete joy to be there with them. We shared a happy group hug as we said our goodbyes. 🙂
