Ben + Katie are getting married in Texas later this summer but needed some engagement photos. I don’t normally say yes to anything wedding related, but they happened to catch me at just the right moment where I was feeling the need to mix it up a bit. So we headed down to Kirkland yesterday evening for a really fun time.
The weather yesterday was just insane. Perfectly sunny all day and then right when we sat down for a pre-engagement shoot cocktail, the thunder set in. It didn’t scare me though, I usually prefer stormy skies to perfectly blue ones and this summer storm gave us some pretty incredible light that I could never duplicate in the studio.
The best part? We got to include their daughter, Bella, in some of their photos! I’ll start with Bella first because she was SO well behaved for me.
A favorite. It was raining, I was hunched over my camera, Bella wasn’t sure what the heck was going on. Good times.
So sweet.
1, 2, 3 … Attack! Put my Mom down!
Trying to blend in.
And a few favorites of the lovely couple!
Bella says Happy 4th of July everyone … don’t drink and drive! Woof!
