Friday night I met Terese & David at Clark Reservation in Jamesville, NY, for their Engagement Session.  Although my family and I spend a ton of time at State parks when the weather is nice, this was one I hadn’t been to before, and it turns out they hadn’t, either.  It was a great location for a session, and I can’t wait to go back.

They have a 20 month old son, so we made sure to include him in the session.  He’s got the most beautiful blue eyes!

The park has stairs leading down to a small lake, so we headed down to check it out.  On the way we found this ledge.  See the heart to the right of Dave’s head?

I love capturing these candid moments!

LOL!  This is why it’s important to always have your camera ready!

One more family shot before we called it a wrap.

Terese & David, thank you for a fun session!  I’m sorry I made you walk up 1,365,487 stairs in the hot, humid weather…thanks for being such good sports.  See you in a few weeks!

After going through their Engagement Session images, I found a few more to share.  Aren’t these two HOT? I am SO excited for their wedding in July!

*Disclaimer*  The last image is more sensual than the rated PG sessions I normally post, so if you’re offended by images like that, please don’t scroll down. Having said that, I am *extremely* pleased with how it turned out, and I want to thank Rachel & Russell for being so comfortable with me shooting them and for allowing me to share with my clients.

Enjoy!

This is one of my absolute favorites!

Thursday night Missy & I photographed Rachel & Russell’s *hot* Engagement Session.  It was SO hot, in fact, that I can only post a few of the outdoor stuff we captured before it was completely dark out.  Enjoy!

{Megan & Scott; Engaged}

Megan & Scott are tying the knot on April 17th, and Monday Hot Husband and I were able to hang out with them at Coleman’s Irish Pub in Syracuse.  I really want to thank the staff at Coleman’s for allowing us to use their fantastic pub for their Engagement Session.  We had the run of the bar while they were getting ready for lunch, and I can’t remember when I’ve shot at such an interesting location.  Since Hot Husband & I happen to both be Irish, it was extra fun.  We actually ended up going back after the session for lunch.  It’s been years since we were there last, but the food was just as fabulous as I remembered.  But I digress…

Megan & Scott started out shooting a little darts.  I love the way Scott is looking at her in this image, and if you look close you can even see the dart on it’s way.  Do you see it?

Pool, anyone?

I love the dark, moody feel of this picture.

After Coleman’s we decided to head downtown for a little stroll.  It was kind of chilly, but they were troopers.  This time, I love the way Megan is looking at Scott.  The connection between the two of them has me so excited for their wedding.  I always tell my couples to ignore me during their session, and they had no problems doing so.

One of my favorites from their session.  These two are naturals!

I love this one, too.

I thought the “say yes” was fitting, don’t you?
