Jessika and Jon

This weekend I had a engagement session with Jessika and Jon. I went to highschool with Jessika. We had choir class together. We haven't talked much since then so when she contacted be about getting photos done I was very excited to see her and to meet her fiance Jon. It was a beautiful day for a photoshoot. It was a little chilly, but almost perfect. You know the kind of weather where the wind blows and it gives you a chill until the sun shines down on your face and warms your body right up again. Thats the kind of day it was. Forest park was the perfect location for their shoot.We hung around the outside of the art museum(http://www.slam.org/) for most of their shots.

Kiss Flare....You know I <3 sum flare

The sun was peaking over a couple trees so I had to do some of my signature sunflare shots. I can't help myself. Some might think its a mistake, but I do this on purpose.

So after we took a few shots in front of the green trees we walked over to a few beautiful flower covered trees. As much as I'd like to share what type of tree it was I have no idea. I don't claim to be a botanist...so I just call them the pretty flower covered trees.

The art museum...
I wanna hold your hand....
Now thats art...well the museum

Then it was time for me to focus on Jessika. Not only is Jessika and Jon getting married, but they are having a baby girl as well. I think every expecting mother should have a photo of herself when she is glowing. She told me a few different times that they are sorry that they aren't photogenic. How either of them could think that is beyond me.

Happy Easter

^I thought I needed to do an Easter photo in this shoot so here it is.
Peep.

After I took a few of mommy to be : ) I had Jon sit down with her and just spend sometime together. I normally give a little direction on what to do and how to pose, but with couple I didnt need to tell them much at all. I love when couple ignore me and just interact with each other. The way he looks at her and how he brushed her hair back was just perfect. He adores her.
