Hannah emailed me a week or two before her session second-guessing what she'd planned to wear. “I bought a dress last week,” she said, “But now I’m afraid it’s too fancy-looking for engagement pictures.” You know what I said? Girl, WEAR THAT DRESS! Engagement photos are a once-in-a-lifetime thing, so you should feel the freedom to have FUN with your styling. I’m always pro-dressing up when you’re going to be on camera, because knowing you look awesome translates to confidence in front of the lens, which translates to L O V I N G your photos.
Hannah wore that dress, and I’m so glad she did. The breeze the day of the session made its flowiness magical, and it was a perfect accent to the blooms that were starting to pop up. Jeff spun her around and held her close, they both looked awesome, and guess what? “Too dressy” wasn’t even a concern.
These cuties CANNOT WAIT for their wedding. From our first meeting I could tell that, while they are putting in the time to plan an awesome day, they really just care about getting to spend the rest of their lives together. They get to marry each other this summer, and I have a feeling it’s going to be a really stinkin’ awesome day. Thanks for letting me be the one to photograph you in your fancy clothes, Hannah & Jeff!
