Engagements

Christa & Clint- AR Engagement

If you asked me who my best friend was when I was a kid I'd proudly tell you it was Christa. :) We have known each other since forever, from playing with Barbies, building huts out of bamboo/cane, making our famous yeast rolls…. and now we get to watch each other get married this March. When I got the text last Summer saying she and Clint were engaged I was so excited, and of course I was glad to accept their invitation to take their engagement pictures. I drove to Arkansas one weekend and we hiked through a creek and a field and onto a bridge, having a lovely time and laughing a bunch. It made me happy to see her so happy, and I couldn't think of a better man for her than Clint. Congratulations you two! See you in a few weeks for the big day! christaClint2 christaClint1 christaClint3

Stephanie + Scott, Engagement

Stephanie and Scott were so sweet and we had a good time on their photo session! It was a warm day and the couple got a little lost on the way to our country location (oops!) but it all turned out fine and we got some lovely pictures! Usually the guys don't get super involved in the picture-taking process, but Scott was happy to offer a lot of posing suggestions (perhaps a bit sillier than what I normally shoot...) and I'm pretty sure he could put me out of a job someday if he kept that up haha. :) By the way, I'm a little in love with Stephanie's polka dot dress-- isn't it the perfect outfit for pictures?! Congratulations to you two on your engagement, can't wait for the wedding!

Courtney + Chad- Engagement

Courtney and Chad are one of those couples that you just can't imagine one without the other. :) I've met with Courtney a few times over the past year to discuss photographing her wedding (which is less than 2 weeks away!!!) and didn't meet Chad until the engagement session, but they seem so perfect for each other! And they brought their little puppy which was absolutely adorable! I'm so excited about photographing their wedding, I know it will be such a lovely day and will be a beautiful start to their life together. Congratulations you two!
