Happy Friday Everyone! I’ve been so excited to share this engagement shoot with all of you that I’ve made their sneak peek my Facebook cover ever since. The funny thing is that the pecan orchard was actually a last minute decision made due to problems with our previous location but it worked out way way better! I love it when life gives you fun twists like this. Throw in a couple, madly in love, like Patrick & Bridgette and you get ooey-gooey gorgeous photos. ♥

These two have the cutest engagement story! You can tell that a boy is in love when he puts so much thought and effort into asking a girl that all important question. And I can’t think of a more thoughtful process than…a scavenger hunt! Oh goodie!

So it all started when Patrick wrote Bridgette a love letter on Valentine’s Day. While true and heartfelt, this letter was to set the stage. He followed this with a another letter a week later but wouldn’t let her open it right away. He let the suspense drag until one day he called Bridgette while she was out at dinner with friends and told her to open the letter.

These two have too much fun together! I love watching Patrick be goofy while Bridgette laughs and plays along.

This fateful letter included all the reasons that he loved her…but also pointed her to her next destination. Let me give you a quick background on this adorable couple. Their relationship has been largely characterized by stints of long distance relationship. Bridgette found herself moving around as they completed their degrees but all the while they stayed true to each other.

Now, this suspenseful letter led to a total of 5 letters and 5 locations, each representing a place when Bridgette was away from Patrick. I love it! I can’t wait for these two to get hitched next year!

Can’t get enough glowy orchard photos?! Me too! Trust me, I’ve posted more photos than normal for an e-session *grin*. And there are so many more that I wanted to post on the blog but you’ll just have to check them out in the slideshow on the Event Page. Enjoy the weekend!

Yay! Friday is here! I’ve been dying to post the photos of this adorable Route 66 Engagement. Meet Kevin & Alethia! I love these two. Tornadoes were looming over the horizon but they brought so much energy to the shoot that not even the crazy weather would stop us from having fun. There are so many photos that I love!

I just have to share this quote from Alethia on their wedding website: Kevin and I are one day shy of being “high-school sweethearts.” Awww, I love it! ♥

Kevin and Alethia are two years apart and attended the same high school but they only knew OF each other. Alethia first officially met him when she attended his prom {different dates mind you}. Then when Alethia graduated they crossed paths again and to Alethia’s surprise he clearly remembered her. ♥ It was only then, with both of them finished up with High School that their fates were colliding.

They were ALMOST High School sweethearts. To make a long story short, this meeting led to a Facebook friend request which let to late night messaging which led to a late night Wal-mart run which now will be leading to a happily ever after. These two are the cutest!

I loved hearing Kevin tell us the proposal story over lunch at Pops, a Route 66 diner. You can tell how nervous but mostly how excited he was to ask. But most of all I love how determined he was. So the story goes, they spent the weekend in Oklahoma City together but Kevin had to leave Monday morning for a job three hours away. As soon as he was done, he secretly drove three hours back to Oklahoma City to surprise her.

He used the drive to formulate and plan and get up the nerve to propose. The problem was that she wouldn’t answer her phone! He showed up at 9 o’clock outside her apartment to find out she wasn’t there and to make matters worse she finally called back and said she was having dinner in Stillwater {another hour away!}. Determined, he jumped in the car and raced to the Wal-Mart from their first outting and bought “I Love You” greeting cards and a pen. He then proceeded to send Alethia on a scavenger hunt throughout Stillwater ending at Theta Pond where he was waiting with a ring. How could a girl say no to a guy that goes to all those lengths!?

Want to see some more photos of these two sweethearts?! Head on over to the slideshow on the Event Page. Enjoy the weekend!

Happy Hump Day friends! Last but definitely not least! We have one more shoot to share from this past weekend. Meet Shelby & Emelie! Scott and I had so much fun on this session. It was sunny with a cool breeze and Emelie is so pretty. They are the nicest and friendliest couple!

These two sweethearts met through baseball in high school. Not knowing she was gazing at her future, Emelie followed all of Shelby’s baseball games. ♥ How cute!

The cool thing is that Emelie is actually a talented photographer! I have to admit that to be picked as the wedding photographer by a fellow photographer is the highest compliment. There’s many more sweet and beautiful photos of these two. So make sure to check back in two weeks to enjoy their full e-session!

Happy Saturday! Wow, we really don’t say that too often here on the blog but this weekend is so packed with photo goodies that we have to do a weekend post. And boy, this shoot is to die for! When we saw these two lovebirds laughing as soon as they jumped out of their truck, we knew we were in for an awesome afternoon! Meet Patrick and Bridgette. ♥

I swear if the sun didn’t set we would still be out there having a ball. So, you will all have to come back in two weeks to see the full e-session. After seeing these, I know you will, lol. Enjoy the rest of your weekend!

Happy Friday! Typical of Oklahoma, the weather has been all over the place lately, lol. The weekdays tend to be sunny while the weekends tend to be crazy {figures}. But our prayers were answered and we didn’t get much more than a mist during this shoot. And the cool cloudy day set a laid-back mood for this fun engagement. Meet Jay and Kayla ♥ We started out the afternoon eating ice cream and relaxing at the university because Jay and Kayla are big fans of their Alma Mater. They both graduated with degrees in Ag Economics.

Jay proposed on September 2nd, the day after his birthday. These two sweethearts had been looking at rings but Kayla never saw it coming. Kayla was finishing up the last details for a planned birthday party with friends and family over at their house. Before the majority of the guests arrived, Jay proposed right after Kayla got out of the shower. The timing ended up to be just right with friends and family able to share in the celebration of the exciting news!

Jay and Kayla are definitely animal lovers! Kayla is a coach for the university equestrian team and Jay is a pharmaceutical rep for veterinarians. Not only that but they have two live-in furry friends, Emma and Lola, who joined in the fun for some photos by the lakefront.

These two…four!…are so much fun! Don’t forget to check out the slide show on their Event Page to find more of these fun and lighthearted photos. And guess what?! We’ll be photographing Jay and Kayla’s wedding next weekend! So keep a look out for the sneak peek. We’re so excited for it’s in a gorgeous historic church! Enjoy your weekend!

Happy Monday! Wow, what a crazy weekend! It all started on Friday when we were finalizing the location and details for the Saturday engagement shoot. We discovered at the last minute that we were sharing part of the area with an antique car show AND the weather report was predicting tornadoes. That’s right, tornadoes! You may have heard about this on the news. So, we prayed the tornadoes would stay at bay and told the couple to bring their energy and an umbrella! They did and it turned out awesome! Meet Kevin and Alethia.

As you can see the weather gave us the break we needed and it actually was extremely pleasant. It helped that these two lovebirds are the nicest couple ever! There’s many more wonderful photos that you have to see. So make sure to come back in two weeks for their story and the full e-session. Have a great week everyone!

The weekend is just around the corner and we have an amazing e-session to share! I love these photos and I guarantee they will inspire you to venture outdoors with your significant other this weekend. I present to you David & Kelsey’s woodsy bicycle engagement. Ah they are so much in love! ♥

Adorable huh?! David and Kelsey are even a cuter couple in person. They both brought their bikes and good spirit which created photos that are definitely “them”. They both are avid bicyclists. They love biking around and definitely enjoy biking to class. David is actually planning a bike tour to Oregon. Yes, biking FROM Oklahoma TO Oregon. So as you can imagine, the shoot wouldn’t have been complete without their bikes.

David and Kelsey first met because they attended the same church and right now they live in rent houses that are across the street from each other. ♥ Sweet! ♥ They are also coincidentally both studying to be environmental engineers. We took their bikes out to this woods by a lake because there is a special story behind this spot. Besides biking, David and Kelsey love the outdoors. One day, David convinced Kelsey to go out hiking in these woods because he needed to “test out his new camping stove.” Kelsey was a little suspicious but didn’t question since it seemed logical enough plus she likes hiking through woods. While meandering under the canopy of trees, finding paths and enjoying the cool weather, two stray dogs randomly decided to join them for the day. Kelsey said the day was amazing, and with their new friends Bear and Scout it could only be described as surreal.

As the day wound down they found themselves sitting by the lake, admiring the sunset, petting the dogs, and talking about erosion {They ARE engineers remember? LOL}. What happened next, Kelsey never expected. David suddenly knelt on one knee and asked Kelsey to marry him. He spoke from his heart telling her why he chose here over any other girl. I got butterflies in my stomach from just hearing their story. And of course, she said Yes!

I don’t know if any day can compare to their proposal back in January, but it sure was enjoyable spending the afternoon capturing their love for each other. Head on over to the slideshow on their Event Page to find more wonderful and touching photos of these two. On another note, I hope you enjoy your weekend and come back Monday. We’ll post a sneak peak of an e-session we’re doing tomorrow {think soda pop and an old round barn ♥}. See you next week!
