I had a great session with these two. They are such an amazing couple and I am so glad that they chose me to be their photographer. I know I’m going to have TON’S of fun at their wedding! :) They are a perfect example of “what to wear” as well as how to make your session special! They brought their own props that really represented their style and their personalities.. not to mention, they really had fun with it! Their chemistry with one another is so awesome and they were so comfortable the entire session…. (well until Joshua lost Bonny’s keys and didn’t realize that they were still hanging from the truck when he used them to unlock it until about 30 minutes later.) Did you REALLY think I would let you forget that!? ;) (Tiffany was the mastermind behind Bonny’s gorgeous “big hair” as Bonny called it… and her beautiful makeup!!!) :)

I love balloons. I also love clients who like doing “odd” pictures. :)

This reminds me of an abercrombie ad. ;) Work it guys!

Work it Bonny!!! :)

Another example of some of Bonny and Joshua’s awesome ideas to showcase their personalities; Joshua JUST got back from Canada!! He studied film production at Vancouver Film school. Bonny and Joshua are both HUGE movie buffs so the popcorn was PERECT… and of course I had some fun with it. :) (Obviously by these next few shots, they did too!!!) :)

I love everything about this image. It makes me feel so calm and happy. :)

“Bonny & Joshua!” :D

Anyone who brings a giant “&” sign to their session are my kind of people. :)

I think this might possibly be my favorite. :D

I thought this was a little train that Joshua maybe had in his room as a kid… apparently Bonny gave this to him not too long ago! ;) haha.

I love my clients!!!

If you follow the blog you know my girl Tiffany. She is THE greatest makeup artist of all time and I’ve been blessed to be able to work with her so much! I had a very fun session with Tiffany, her husband Johnathon and their AMAZINGLY ADORABLE son Mason. :) This kid has the coolest hair of any kid in the history of the world. True story. We also snagged a few with the rest of the family for Christmas!! :) Check out a few of my faves from their session and be sure and check out Tiffany if you haven’t already!!! (Smokin’ Hot Makeup)
