up and immediately met Brian and Whitney. It’s always really obvious which couple is waiting for me because the girl always has her hair done and the guy is coordinating perfectly. We said hello and then Ben stuck his MASSIVE head out of the window of Brian’s truck! WOW!! This dog was HUGE!! I’m so used to Bokeh. Bokeh is literally 11 pounds and most of this body consists of FLUFF! An 82 pound lab is a big adjustment. There is more power in Bennett’s TAIL than there is in Bokeh’s whole body!! As we were shooting I offered to just hold Ben’s leash and snap a few of two of them and Brian very kindly informed me that that would be a bad idea.
That dog is STRONG… but very photogenic… and that’s all I care about! :) So we started the session with Ben and then continued down the streets of Colonial Williamsburg. I’ve shot there so many times but you can never run out of great locations! As we walked and talked, I got to know these two and heard more of their story. They grew up together, went to prom together and were basically family friends their whole life and then went their separate ways. It wasn’t until later that they got together and realized that this was it! They started dating and eventually Brian popped the question and gave Whit this beautiful Asscher cut diamond! (I love that cut!) They’ve been planning their wedding for a while now and I’m so excited that I get to be a part of their celebration!! It’s so crazy how small the world is but Whitney’s Mom’s college roommate was Michael’s Aunt Charlotte!! So Aunt Charlotte, thank you for passing my name along to this wonderful couple!! I can’t wait for October!!! Enjoy some of my favorites!
Head tilt! Love it!
