Hellooooo ... we are back :-)!!!  No we didn't die, we have just been gone for several weeks for both vacation and work and there will be plenty of upcoming postings to show where we have been and what we have been up to.  But first we have a couple of postings that we need to post from before we left.

Kelly and Evan are getting married in Flagstaff next May.  Neither of them live in state, but they made a trip out this way to get some wedding planning out of the way.  They figured that it would be the perfect time to schedule their engagement session, and they couldn't have been more right.  A few weeks ago Flagstaff's famous fields of sunflowers were in their full glory and we definitely took advantage.  They also wanted some shots around Sedona, so we took them to Merry-Go-Round Rock on Schnebly Hill for sunset - which was quite spectacular by the way!  We had a great time guys!!

This is how far behind I am on my blogging ... I always try to have the photos posted before the clients get their images so that they get a little sneak peak.  Just as I began this posting I got an email from Michelle and Eric letting us know that they had just gotten their DVD.  Up side is that the email was very sweet and they loved their photos!!  Thanks guys :-)!

A couple of weeks ago Michelle and Eric made their way from Phoenix to Flagstaff for their engagement shoot.  We started out downtown and finished up on the mountain, stopping by one of our many sunflower-filled meadows along the way.

Michelle and Eric, we had such a blast with you both!!  This was such a fun engagement shoot and you both made taking great images extremely easy.  You were even willing to run so we could get photos as the train went by ... awesome!  We can't wait for the wedding in November!  See ya then!

We photographed Kendall and Ryan a few weeks ago in Flagstaff for their engagement shoot.  They brought along their adorable Yorkie-Poo, Keighley to pose in some of the photos (and I must say, she did a great job.)  Ryan's grandmother also came along and was nice enough to "babysit" Keighley in the down time :-).

The weather looked menacing but held out long enough for us to finish the shoot, at which time it poured.  Kendall and Ryan, we had a great time and are looking forward to your wedding in July ... wow, not to far away :-).  See you then!

OK, I admit it ... I am drowning right now between deadlines and traveling for weddings, which is why I am sooooo beind on my blogging.  After the next two engagement postings, I still have 4 weddings to blog and 2 more will be added to that list after this coming weekend.  So for all of those clients patiently waiting to catch a sneak peak, I swear I haven't forgotten you and I will get to them as soon as I can :-).

On to Robin and Jeff's engagement shoot.  We conducted this shoot a few weeks ago in Sedona - Red Rock Crossing and Merry-Go-Round Rock to be precise.  Though it began with a little rain it cleared out nicely, leaving us with a great sky and beautiful light.

Robin and Jeff, it was a pleasure getting to know you both better and we can't wait for your wedding in October!  Enjoy the sneak peak!

 Recently we met with Liane and Andy to photograph their engagement shoot.  They both have roots in Florida (which is where their wedding will be held next year) and met while in school at FSU for metorology.  Andy got a job out here and the two moved to Flagstaff in Late March.  They both love wine and originally wanted to have their shoot at a winery, but since there are none of those lurking about in Flagstaff they decided to improvise with a bottle of wine and some wine glasses (with their nick names - Pita and Leach - engraved on them) at Hart Prarie.  They also did some fun shots wearing their jerseys and some cool sunglasses they picked up in Vegas.  The light for this shoot was absolutely amazing.  It has been quite stormy here of late and this can make for some of the most spectacular and exquisite lighting conditions that Mother Nature has to offer ... it definitely did on this day!

Liane and Andy, it was a pleasure getting to know you both!  Enjoy!
