Kevin & Audie | A Tappahannock Engagement Session

Things are feeling a little rusty around here. It has been so long since I have posted ! If you've been following along with my facebook page you have probably heard my beloved MacBookPro finally saw it's death last week. Long story short, I hope it'll come back to life soon. In the meantime, I am (not so) patiently waiting for my new iMac to arrive at my front door (Thursday!!) and plugging away on some bookkeeping tasks, finally reorganizing some archives, and oh! Lookie here... finally blogging again!! It occurred to me the other day that blogging had become somewhat of a challenge because of my computer crashing so often. I knew it was becoming a challenge because I had a lot of other things on my plate, but I always have other things on my plate! I typically make time to blog because I love it so much, but when I couldn't get through a whole blog post without the computer crashing 2-3 times mid-writing, well, that's just challenging in and of itself. So at this moment I'm writing from my old (circa 2009!) PC and enjoying being able to write interruption-free!

So, given this opportunity I wanted to introduce you guys to one of my awesome 2013 couples: Audie and Kevin! I met up with the two of them as well as Kevin's sweet daughter's (and Audie's future step-daughters) a few weekends ago for Audie and Kevin's engagement session at their future wedding location. The girls were the sweetest little things!! They kept saying "We are getting married here!!" It killed me! Here are a few of my favorite pictures from their session! I am sooo looking forward to their country wedding... with a barn... field... plantation home...? Only a few of my favorite things!!! Swoon!!

Cowgirl Boots | Mount Holly Wedding Photographer

Ahhhh.... bridal sessions! I LOVE them but they kill me because I can't share the images until months after the sessions! I had one of my all-time favorite bridal shoots this past weekend and I HAVE to share a sneak peek with you guys. As we walked and talked, I listened intently to the details they have lined up for this wedding. Can I just say... my country-girl heart is all a-flutter! And come on... with bridal shoes like these... I can't hardly wait!

Katelyn and Grant, pt II | Virginia Wedding Photographer

If you missed it, be sure to check out part I of Katelyn and Grant's e-session. And now... part II... the farm. I loved being on the dairy farm, meeting the baby cows (I know there is a better term for a baby cow, but I don't remember!), and meeting Katelyn's family. They are passionate about their work and the whole environment reminded me of when I spent 6 months living on a working farm during college. Love, love.

Katelyn and Grant | Warsaw Engagement Photographer

The first time Katelyn mentioned wheat and corn fields I knew our photographer/client match was one made in heaven. :) Katelyn and Grant come from farming families and they had no problem waking up in time for a sunrise session. We started the session off down by the water on Katelyn's family's land and ended it in a barn full of hay! Between the setting and the lighting, I felt like I was in a photographer's playground! Not to mention how EASY they made my job because they simply giggled, cuddled, and stole kisses during our time together. Perfect! I love their photos so much that I am going to share their engagement session in two parts. First up, a J. Crew couple:

Stay tuned for part II!!
