Snow Pics

I've always wanted to shoot some decent snow pics, but in Memphis we rarely get enough to shoot before it all melts. Last week was a rare exception, so I dropped Jordan off at work and the kids off at school, and then scrambled back to the house to get my gear. There was this place I wanted to go (see the water images below) that I have wanted to shoot for some time now. I had envisioned buying some chest waders and actually getting down to the water line for some dramatic early morning shots, but thought better of it in the sub-freezing temps. Maybe I'll visit the spot again soon.

I originally posted these images yesterday on Facebook. In only 24 hours, I've already had a couple of people inquire about purchasing prints from this series. If you're interested, click here to purchase copies directly from my web site.

Christie & Sean

Every time I schedule a portrait session, I pray for good light. With this session it actually worked. We had perfect golden light for three hours.

Not only was the light perfect, but so were Christie & Sean. I absolutely ADORE this couple. We had so much fun. Shoot a little, laugh a little, shoot a little more, REPEAT. And did you SEE Christie's red hair? And Sean's? HA! LOVE this couple!

The only problem was that we had icicles hanging off our noses when we finished. FLIPPIN' cold!

Erin & Dusty

These are from Erin & Dusty's engagement session earlier in the Fall.

Our engagement sessions are a blast. We usually start these two to three hours before sunset, so the session ends during the "magic-hour" of light just after the sun goes down (more like 20 minutes). We try to go to as many fun locations as we can in three hours. It's a little like a drive-by-shooting, but without the bullets. ;)
