Photo Shoot

On the weekend Kevin and I did a little engagement photo shoot with a couple that are great friends of ours. This photo shoot was a long time in the making, we had a hard time finding a weekend that worked for all of our schedules. After many rescheduling we finally got together on Superbowl Sunday and we couldn't have asked for a better day!

It had snowed the night before so we woke up to a beautiful set-up of a fresh fluffy blanket of snow on the ground and in the trees, and the temperature was perfect, nice enough that I didn't have to wear a jacket.

We met at the couples house and headed for town.

Pam and Jordan are getting married in the Winter so they really wanted to have a winter engagement shoot. It was great because they knew somethings they really wanted and then also let us play around too so we were able to get a great mix of shots and just had fun the whole time.
Our first stop was at the Cataraqui Conservation Area where we got some great shots. There is this neat wooden bridge that crosses some water and there are tons of cat tails and tall grass along the sides that I couldn't stop taking shots there. So we went along some paths got some shots in the woods and then we headed back for the main building. Pam had this great idea for a shot where she put her ring on an icicle and then we laid it on Jordan's scarf and they turned out really neat.



After we were finished there we headed down town to get some shots with some of the snow sculptures they had set up for FebFest.
One thing that had been built out of snow and ice was the huge slide, and one part of it happened to be a double slide. How perfect is that! So Pam and Jordan hoped in line and I ran to the bottom of the slide. I couldn't believe how fast they shot out the bottom of that thing. Makes me wish I had gotten in line to go down too!

After we finished our photo shoot we headed to the Lone Star to grab a bite to eat. It was such a great day I couldn't believe how fast it went by. Pam and Jordan were so great to work with it didn't even feel like we were doing any sort of job, it was just fun, and we are so happy with the shots we got I can't wait to get them all done and back to Pam and Jordan so they can see all of them. :)
