[ note: i thought of a famous actress the whole time we were shooting, i hope you see it too :) ]

anna and jason were engaged in the beautiful founder’s garden on campus at the university of georgia; seems like the perfect place to start their engagement shoot, right? well, matt and i arrived early (as usual) to scout out the location, and as we walked up the hill to the garden the top of a white tent appeared, then a bar complete with glasses and tender came into view, then round tables with extravagant flower arrangements, and finally the caterer who informed us the garden was reserved for a reception. right theme, wrong day, founder’s garden! when anna and jason arrived we grabbed a few shots around the perimeter of the garden before deciding to head to a nearby lake. on the way they stopped to change into more casual clothes and pick up lily, the fiesty little puppy jason gave anna two years ago. at first little lily was afraid of the camera, retreating behind anna or jason. next she decided to attack the camera and bark and lunge at the lens (and subsequently matt, haha)! finally she realized the camera must be nice because mommy and daddy are paying it a lot of attention and seem to be smiling a lot! so then she became a bit of a camera hog, but an adorable one! here are a few of our favorite pics from the day:

thank you anna and jason for being so fun and flexible! i’m so glad that it worked out for us to do your engagement pics, it was great getting to know you guys before the big day! we’re looking forward to the wedding!

we were really excited when (after lots of correspondence) anna sent us a message letting us know she wanted us to capture her big day! it was like trying out for an exclusive team, and we made it! yeay! we love it when clients really connect with our style and choose us because they really think we’ll capture the day the way they want to remember it (how it really happened!); anna and ray are certainly that couple! it was great to meet up with them wednesday at centennial olympic park for some fun shots full of color and sun and buildings(?)! anna and i discovered we share a slightly embarrassing addiction to the show america’s next top model; i have to say, she’s learned way more from that show than i have! check out these shots

look at the way she’s gazing up at him, so in love!

for all you photo junkies, notice how well-lit their smiles are and where the sun is? we have the insane glare off the city windows to thank for that, love it!

anna, this next shot is just for you, i know you love those shoes (even through the pain ;))!

anna and ray are pretty much expert frolickers:

and the sun started to set, this is my favorite shot, matt took it, he’s got an eye for dramatic lighting!

thanks anna and ray for an awesome afternoon! we really enjoyed laughing with you guys, can’t wait for the wedding!

our amazing clients continue to surprise us with their willingness to power through tough weather! friday night after we checked saturday’s weather (unrelenting rain all day!), matt and i started pouring (hah!) over our calendars looking for a time when we could reschedule saturday’s engagement shoot. we’d come up with a few dates when we got a call from andrea letting us know that shooting in the rain sounded like a fun and different engagement session and she was up for sticking to the original plan! matt and i were actually pretty excited, we’d never shot in the rain and we immediately had plans for using it to our advantage. we met up with andrea and nathan on the riverwalk in downtown augusta. armed with umbrellas, these two really were up for anything, and we started shooting rainfall and all! here are a few of our favorites from our rain date:

thank you guys so much for an awesome shoot in the rain! you guys are great sports; it was so fun getting to know you as a couple. we’re really looking forward to the big day!!
