Couple’s Portraits
and Engagement Sessions
It should feel real…
You know those fleeting moments when you’re having a precious experience with your person, maybe something gloriously simple and mundane, like sipping a cup of coffee from your favorite cafe, on your favorite bench, looking out at your favorite view? Or something more adventurous (if that’s your thing), in an epic mountainscape or at the foot of a forest, surrounded by ancient giants bearing witness to your romance? Having a wild night out in the big city? Whatever the scene, that heart-exploding or complete-at-ease yearning to live in that moment forever? Or at the very least have something to remember it by. When you try to explain your relationship, words don’t fully encapsulate it? As much as we want to have something tangible to cling to from those moments, they’re perfect for the very fact that you’re focused on clinging to it, rather than reaching for a camera.
That’s the mood I channel in my photography. If I could, my street photographer instincts would have me artistically capturing witnessed moments of couples, immortalizing their precious experiences without them being ever the wiser… But that’s creepy. So instead, we work together, sculpt a vision and a concept, and while you two bring the love, I’ll bring the guidance, the artistic eye, and the laid back encouragement that whatever you feel like doing is the right thing. This can be running down the beach in playful ecstasy, or bringing the non-nonchalant vibes on a moody fire escape. Dogs (and cats) are more than welcome, and so are the breaking-the-fourth wall/smile-at-the-camera shots that will go on Grandma’s fridge.
