Romance on the Icy Tundra…
If it seems like I’ve been on hiatus, I haven’t. I’ve just been really, really bad at blogging! I was really in a groove there for awhile, but now I’m shifting my focus to the business end of things. (i.e., updating my brochures/pricing, and my horribly out dated website!) I’ve already completed my price list, so now comes the creative part — my site! It’s always really difficult for me to choose what images will end up there. Of course I have my favorites; the challenge lies in making sure that I’m showing the diversity in my work, and picking the images accordingly. Anyway, I’m sure it will take longer than I expect. It always does.
For now here are some photographs from the world’s fastest outdoor engagement shoot. It was FREEZING cold this day…record breaking temps. I was just really bent on doing it outdoors since studio engagement portraits can be somewhat tricky and awkward. Jaime and Josh were here from South Dakota, so it’s not like it would have been easy for them to reschedule on a warmer day. By the time we got back inside, my fingers were numb, and I was having a hard time talking. I don’t even think we could have been outside for more than 20 minutes! I might have liked a little more time, but afterward we went inside and took a few studio shots, anyway!
(Have I mentioned at all that I would really love a warm weather destination vacation anytime now?)




As long as I’m on the subject of engagements, I might as well mention that I am going to be very busy with weddings this summer. I’m doing some freelance work for a couple other companies this year, and they will book me when they can unless I’ve given them close out dates. My point is, if you are seriously considering booking me for your wedding, you should let me know ASAP so we can get a contract signed and your date on my calendar!
