This past weekend Marc & I did our 2nd engagement shoot. We had a lot longer than last time to shoot. We used every minute.
We shot an adorable couple, who might as well be a real-life cowboy & cowgirl. They met on eHarmony and things moved swiftly into a beautiful engagement. And who knew asian guys could own Buicks, wear ostrich boots, fancy belt buckles, and carry a cowboy hat wherever they go!? The bride-to-be admitted they hardly have any photos of them together! We sure fixed that.
We shot with a few props and stumbled into a semi-styled shoot. I’m always reading about styled shoots…and as I reviewed our shots, I realized my subconscious shot the couple as if we were following them around on their ranch. With the entrance of a mere cowboy hat and a few square dancing moves, it transformed this shoot into something magical and western.
I shot with 3 different lenses. 50% was shot with my new 30mm 1.4, 35% with the trusty 28-75 2.8 and the remaining 15% was shot with a 10-22 (which was my first time snapping shots with this lens). My favorite to shoot with was the 30…but I am intrigued now with the 10-22.
Here are some of my favorite shots.
