Kris and Ashley’s Engagement-Mandy Henry, Wedding Photographer
October 31, 2009Kris and Ashley are “The Bomb” and their shoot was pretty much “Off The Hook” (those are for you Ash!) Really though, everyone is so excited that these two are getting married. Although the wedding will most likely be next spring sometime, Ashley really wanted to do an engagement shoot before all the fall colors were gone. It was a challenge to make that happen due to all the terrible weather we have been having this year. After a rained out Monday shoot, we were all looking forward to a nice bright Tuesday morning. But, we were a little surprised to wake up to massive amounts of dense fog covering Beloit. We held off as long as we could, but eventually had to start shooting due to time. I was excited to get some photos in the fog because I knew it would create a cool effect. But, I also wanted some NOT in fog. I think everything worked out great and Kris and Ashley were awesome and flexible. Here is their sneak peek.
Nice Foggy Effect.
Just some good old fashioned portraiture in a foggy field.
Happy non foggy fall color.
They brought their dog Duncan with them. He was so well behaved. I don’t see myself ever getting a dog, but if I did, it would have to be one like Duncan. At one point, while I was shooting just Kris and Ashley, Duncan was running around and exploring. Suddenly he just stopped, walked right over to us, and posed perfectly in the picture. The photo below is not that instance, but it shows what a perfect “poser” he was. I guess Kris and ashley did a good job too.
My favorite “artsy” shot from the morning.
Thanks Kris and Ashley!
