amy + caleb {in love}

Chances are if you had a session with us this past summer, Amy was one of our biggest helpers.  She was the one at home with our 4 babies.  Our kiddos loved Amy and were so sad to see her leave to go back to school this past August.  My four year old son that loves to sing always says that Amy would sing to him before bed, and she “sings like a princess.”  :)

Amy has always been a big fan of our work.  She told me a long time ago that we would be her photographer for all the big things that happen in her life….well, right after going back to school, her boyfriend Caleb proposed.  We were thrilled that she asked us to do her wedding this coming February, and we had a total blast hanging out with Amy and Caleb to shoot some fun engagement photos.  Amy wanted to go for a look that was trendy and urban, and I have a feeling these accomplished just that.  :)

Love is grand.

Um, I think your babies are going to be beautiful.  :)

Uh oh….watch out!

Here’s a little duo action.  Brett’s point of view….

….and mine.

This is the photo I said the mom’s would love.

I love how they laugh together….

Yummy sunlight.

Amy you are flippin gorgeous!!

LOVE this shot.

Another one of our double shots.  This time this is Brett….

…and this is mine.

Another FAV!!!

As soon as I saw this sign I knew it had to be mine. I think they thought I was nuts.

Caleb being a little smart*$%.  He had his hand down at his side and I said, “Caleb you need to do something with that arm…”  This is what he did.  :)

Amy and Caleb are both musicians.  Caleb plays the piano, and Amy is an AMAZING singer and guitar player. She will probably be embarrassed but go here and hear a song that she wrote and is singing.  Simply AMAZING!!

Caleb played the song from the movie “Once” and they sang together in a little coffee house.

Amy and Caleb, thank you so much for a great evening together.  :)  We are so excited for your wedding in 3 MONNNTTHHHSS!!!!  :)

love~ Jess and Brett

corinne {a senior session}

Last week I had the pleasure of doing a session with Corinne.  She is the best friend of Holly, who I call my official “Senior Rep” for 2008 because she has sent so many fun people my way!!  I met Corinne this past summer when I did Holly’s session, and I have been looking forward to her session since.

We had too much fun together.  We ran around being silly, doing our best to try and stay warm.  It was ABSOLUTELY FREEZING out.  Holly and I were all geared up with gloves and hats, but poor Corinne had to brave the chilly weather!  She did awesome.  :)

We wandered down some random alleys and found some goodness….

Whatever this blue barrel was, I loved the way it brought out her eyes!!

So fun having friends around!  :)

Love, love, love your EYES Corinne!!

She is crazy about birds and really had hoped to incorporate some into her shoot.  This kind old man was watching us, and threw some bread crumbs down to bring the pigeons closer.

This is one of my favorites.

Couple BFF shots.  :)  Holly is modeling it up!

See the little birdie over her shoulder?  :)

We went into this little children’s bookstore seeking warmth, and hoping for some photo spots.  I thought it was adorable!!

We especially loved the little kiddo signs….

Cozy up for some story telling….Remember what we were reading girls??

Little fun with light….

We thought she was crazy, but she went out in the cold anyway.  I’m glad she did, because I really like this shot.

So much laughter!!!  I must be really funny. ;)

Thanks Corinne for putting up with some COOOOLLLD weather for photos with me!!  I had so much fun with you and Holly.  I totally loved being your personal paparazzi for the evening.  :)
