Dueling Banjos ...or Fans...either way, lets get engaged :)

After what seemed like a never end string of cold, rainy Sundays, I was finally able to get together with Adam and Jessy for what turned out to be a fantastic engagement shoot. Although it had rained quite a bit the day before, it really made the locations pop with colors and saturations that just can't be beat.

We had talked quite a bit before hand about the approach to the shoot, and the tone and mood -as well as the personalities they wanted to capture, so location and even accessories were important considerations. Definitely outdoors, and as always, something unique. Helping that along, they brought out some great accessories, including Adam's banjo, a collection of Jessy's very cool and ornate fans, as well as some scarves.

Of course, nothing is more important than bringing the love (yes, I know, that sounded corny and like something off of a hip hop video, but work with me here, lol) - which they brought, and lots of it! What we ended up with was over 2 hours of never ending kissing, with a few short break for Adam to serende his future bride with the melody of banjo springs as she fanned herself while twirling and dancing about.

We ended up with so many great photos, I had a hard time picking some favorites to blog about. If you're considering an engagement shoot and want to see more, just shoot me an email. In the meantime, enjoy these, and check back after June to see what the wedding was like - all I can say is a large farm , in a valley, ceremony at the base of the river, in the mountain of Asheville - I can't wait!
