Last March (yes I am a little late on posting) I had the privilege to shoot with the fabulous Sara Wilde Photography. Despite the dreary winter weather, Jasmine and Scott's personality and beauty shone through!

My little bro and his girlfriend came to visit and we took the kids to this flower field to pick flowers. And of course, I brought my camera!
They were not expecting photos, so these are totally on a whim! If I had known, I would have styled them...well Adam anyway :)
Cute. Young Love. How much sweeter does it get?

A couple months ago I asked my best friend if I could "borrow" her and her boyfriend to try out a Beloved Session.  In short, Beloved is a photography session that is focused more on the the actual experience rather than the shoot itself. There is no or minimal posing, and the subjects are given little assignments or "experiences" by the photographer. This type of session really intrigued me the more I researched it. In the photos I had seen, the couples looked completely in love, in the moment, raw-real-emotion. Wow.
Lucky for me, Jenne and Jason were game to try it out. And to my surprise, about an hour before the shoot, I found out they had gotten engaged! So amazing! The session had become an engagement/beloved session!

We threw in a couple posed engagement pictures to show off the ring!

Please enjoy these real and emotional images. I am in love with session and concept and really want to do more of these!



J & J - I am so excited for your life ahead, I can't wait to spend forever with you guys too! And our kids! Thank you for being so open to this session and willing to do what I said!

Below is the post Jen put on Facebook to announce the engagement, I have to share the amazing words she used to describe her session

So we have all made a lot of mistakes in our lives, some of us more than others. J and I have decided that it is time to put our best foot forward and turn over a new leaf…
 
This photo was taken at the cottage. In February, we invited friends and their kids up for a weekend of winter fun. BFF, BeeJ asked ahead of time, if she could use us in a photo shoot called a ‘Beloved shoot’. She gave us some homework and some ‘to dos’ ahead of the photo shoot. We did all of what she asked, and had a great time doing it. On the day of the photo shoot we were excited not only to share our homework with each other but to share the BIG news with our friends! Just prior to the start of the shoot, BJ (and Matt) were let in on a little secret...we had just gotten engaged!! The shoot now had an added element to it. It was also our engagement shoot. The entire experience was amazing. BJ was so professional and the results speak for themselves. As part of the shoot, we got to share our most important feelings with each other and have fun! Most of the time we didn’t even notice BeeJ was there. We had an awesome time! It was outstanding! BeeJ was able to fully capture on film all of the things that have led us along this path, where we are so thrilled to be able to spend the rest of our lives together. We feel truly blessed and are very excited about our future, and what it has to offer. We have found our perfect happily ever after together with our family!
 
Thank you BeeJ for your amazing talent! Thanks to Matt for his exceptional ability to care for 4 kids at once, maybe it’s a sign…

Ivy, Larry, Chloe and Baby-to-be

I absolutely LOVE how these images turned out! Ivy wanted her pictures to be "light, bright, white, fresh". So that is what she got! Her home is PERFECT for it though as everything is white! Ivy, I have NO idea how you keep a bright white clean house with a toddler! You are my hero!
I cannot wait to meet the little addition in a few month!



 She is going to be a great big sister!



 Beautiful Momma....definately a glowing pregnancy!


 I am loving how these belly shots turn out



Love love love this session, thank you for finding me and allowing me into your home and family life. See you soon!
Love, Bee

Katie and Jeff

What can I say about Katie?
- she is my BFF's little sister
- She drove us nuts when we were children, chasing us around the house and always wanting to hang with "the big girls"
- she has grown into a BEAUTIFUL young woman who can hang around with me any time she wants!!
-She met Jeff, and avid hunter, fisher, outdoorsy guy. They fell in love and now Jeff can hang out with me any time he wants to too!

We "attempted" to get some great engagement photos one evening, but sadly, the sun did not cooperate and went down REALLY fast...so all those great shots we planned in our head did not turn out so well. :( I was bummed - still am actually.

BUT....Luckily for me, these two lovebirds are SO laid back that they have not even set a wedding date yet and we are going to do Round 2 in the spring! And Luckily for them, I know my photography will be EVEN better 6-8 months from now, so they are in for some AMAZING photos!

But for now...Round 1, the shots we did get!

This was totally Katie and Jeff's idea! Love it!





Kate and Jeff...cant wait for the next session, and thanks for all your patience!

McTaggart/Steens

I have known Karla since we were babies. Actually our parents went to Elementary School together. (small town!). Karla has been my guniea pig many times as I was learing and developing my photography and this session with her family, and her brother Matt's family, far exceeds the last shoot we did together! It is  amazing to see how far my photography has come in less than a year!

Karla's sister-in-law, Meg, contacted me to take some family photographs of her family, and it ended up an entire family shoot. They wanted to give their parents a gift of photos for their anniversary in June. I hope they like them!
