As you can see from the last picture we had quite a crowd watching our engagement pictures. Casey was a tad worried about all of the onlookers, but  I knew they would get curious and start walking around the location by themselves. And they did.

We sort of sneaky-dodged the parents for a bit, but in the end they found us! Thanks to the whole crew for all of the fun!

I’m asked quite a bit for recommendations on places to shoot engagement pictures. A short conversation with the couple usually gives me a good idea of their style, however, my correspondence with Krysten had been solely via email. I decided to take a funky risk and suggest an old cottonmill for pictures.

My first clue to what was going to follow was Krysten’s dress. Sassy! I love working with dresses at photo shoots- so many things to tug at; so many looks from sweet to sexy!

We went straight into the moody, hot, funky shots. Krysten & Aaron totally nailed them off the bat! Aaron’s background is in video so it prompted this one. I love the flare. Flair, baby, flare!

  

This is Keeli. She taught me to believe again.

And I bet you a gnome that Keeli just screamed “Lynnie Bratty Pants!”.

Keeli has insisted that her pictures should be accompanied with an inspirational epic, doting extensively on her classically tireless qualities. Please. This is my blog … she’s getting a haiku. And a bad one at that.
