I met Sara when she answered a model call I had last year!! I photographed Sara and her husband in a beautiful field of tiny sunflowers!
So when Sara asked me to take her graduation photos, I was all for it!!
And then I found out she received her PHD and almost fell to the ground! That takes so much perseverance and dedication!! Talk about an accomplishment!!
Here are some great shots from her little session.
Laaron had contacted me about traveling through waco with her boyfriend. She wanted to show him around the town she went to college in (Baylor). So she figured it’d be a great time to have a mini session in some blue bonnets.
When Laaron and Travis pulled into Woodway Park, I greeted them and Laaron had to dig in the car for something. While Laaron was away for a matter of 20 seconds, Travis dropped the ENGAGEMENT BOMB on me. My mind was blown because there was no plan and now I knew what was going to happen, I just didn’t know when or how.
But Travis was cool as a cucumber. Atleast he looked like he was! After a few minutes of shooting he told Laaron, “I’m thirsty, I’m going to get a bottle of water from the car, get some of just you in the blue bonnets”.
When he came back drinking his water, I knew what was up. He had the ring….. So then, my mind is going 1,000 miles a minute knowing it’s going to happen any minute, trying to make sure I’ll be in the perfect spot to capture this special moment.
And bam! It happens, Laaron was SO surprised. And it was totally beautiful!!!!!
When Lauren contacted me about capturing some special moments between her and her man, I was totally up for it. If you notice more black and white images in this blog, it’s because they are Lauren’s favorite. And I’ll tell you, Lauren and Brandon look dang good in black and white!! (they also look great in color)
Check out these awesome shots taken by the suspension bridge in Waco, tx!!
