Larry+Katie Engagement Session

I know it's been said many times before, but I truly love what I do. For three main reasons: First, taking pictures is just fun and amazing, and hard and challenging, and rewarding, and crazy exciting. I love it! Second, people trust me to document some of the most important events in their life, and I'm truly honored to do so. MANY times during a wedding, I'll look down at my camera at the images that I'm getting, and it'll hit me how important it is what I'm doing and how important these images are to the bride and groom. Maybe I'm not putting out fires, or performing an emergency surgery to save someones life, but I get to document love. To record it through my eyes. To tell a story...THEIR story. And to me, that's pretty dang important, as it is to my clients. And third: I get to learn everyday how to love and live better through the couples that I photograph. I love being granted an intimate window seat to a couple's love story and romance. And in capturing that, I learn...and love even more.

Larry and Katie are why I love what I do; their love, their laugh. I loved this shoot. They love each other so much. They're happy. Like really really happy together, and I love that.

I love how much they laugh together, and how easily Larry can make Katie laugh. We laughed A LOT!

And of course my blasted left eye. I'm right eyed. But for some odd reason I leave my left eye open when I'm shooting. My brain just kinda tunes it out, so I literally only see through my right eye. Minor problem...my other eye is left basically staring down whoever I'm shooting. No joke. It's bad! Lucky for me, Larry and Katie found it more humorous than deranged.

LOVE this shot. You two are AWESOME!

Larry and Katie, thanks for laughing and loving like you do. I love it! You guys rock! Thanks for letting me capture your love through my eyes.
