Ashley & Sean - Part I

Hang on tight! This was a marathon photoshoot. Engagement session, bridal session, and family session all in one. (Okay, not all in one. But all in the same day!)

Aubrey and I spent the day with Ashley and Sean, and Sean's three darling little girls. We all had a blast on our 3 in 1 photoshoot at Sundance. (Yes, film festival Sundance.)
We were a little nervous by the rainclouds that were threatening us on the way up there, but by the time we started shooting, the weather could not have been more perfect. All the photos taken outside were 100% natural light.



See what I mean? Totally gorgeous light. (These two aren't bad either.)

We actually started off the shoot inside one of the lodges. We had to take advantage of the awesome architecture.



I loooove this green wall.



Then back outside for some more yummy light portraits.
I am amazed by this photo. Ashley and Sean needed almost NO retouching at all! I changed this photo to black & white and that's about it. The total gorgeous-ness is all them.



Soooo, yeah. Do you think these two might have a little bit of a connection?



Just a little?



This is one seriously hot couple. Add a seriously hot location and dang, you've got an awesome photo.





We will so being shooting at Sundance again. Even if just for this building and its AWESOME window.





Oh yeah, we can't forget the rock!



Sean, you made a good choice. It's beautiful!



We finished up this phase of our photoshoot right as the last bit of sun was peeking around the mountain. The perfect light and this gorgeous pair made for my favorite shot of the day.



Stay tuned. Parts II and III are coming your way!

Alexis & Rob

Look carefully.
Does this girl look familiar? Well, she should!
Alexis was the model for our incredible Trash the Dress sessions last year.
Remember?

Now Alexis is going to be a real bride! Meet Rob, her other half.



These two are such a cute and unique couple. I'm sooo excited to be shooting their sure-to-be-amazing, anything-but-ordinary wedding next month.
Don't believe me? Check out the amazing location they chose for their engagement photos.
This adorable, little house belongs to Alexis' neighbors and they graciously agreed to let us take over their yard for a little while.



Check. Out. The. Garage. Door.



Who in the world has a garage door like that? Not me.
Isn't it amazing!



Now, we can't let the house take all the credit. Let's get back to our totally hot couple.



I <3 his smile in this one.



Awesome hammock in backyard? Check.



Totally gorgeous couple? Check.



Completely amazing photos? Check.



Seriously. These two make my job so easy. I hardly had to do anything!



The side of the house made a perfect backdrop for some intimate moments. I love the passion in these!



Totally and completely made for each other. It's incredible.





Alexis and Rob, you guys are so amazing! We're counting down the days to your amazing wedding!
