Meet Rebecca and Kyle. Though… I get the impression that most people call her Becky. 🙂 (Sidenote… My BFF Corrie and I once read in a really old baby name book that “Bobbi” was a common nickame for “Ruperta.” I often give that as my name when waiting at a restaurant because I think it’s funny. 🙂 Oh, and “Corrie” was listed as “Cornelius” 😀 )HELLOOOOO HOT TAMALES!Jessica Simpson shoes. 🙂The light was MONEY that afternoon!Then an outfit and scenery change… 🙂 Oh, and meet Buster!Such pretty eyes!BADABOOM BADABING! Our favorite! ❗ + ❓Kyle’s dad restores old Indy race cars. How cool is that?! When Becky suggested shooting with one for the engagement session, we were all about it!

You guys already know Kristen! If you don’t know her, click here. 🙂 A quick run down… she was my personal trainer for two years… she kicked my ass into shape! Then she moved to North Carolina for grad school… and as a result my in-shape level isn’t what it used to be. d’oh!

I remember Kristen calling me… soonish after she moved to NC… “I’ve met the man I’m going to marry!”

“Oh? How long have you been dating?” I asked in shock.

“Two weeks.”

If there’s anything you all should know about Kristen… it’s that when she decides something… get outta the way, it’s happening!

Six months later I got another phone call…

“I’M ENGAGED!”

I met him for the first time at this session… and within about five minutes I knew… I knew exactly why she was crazy about him. He’s perfecto for her!
He adores her craziness… (which is why I love her!)
Kristen, you’re gorgeous. 🙂 I can’t WAIT to photograph you in a wedding dress!

Then they changed outfits and we made a quick change of scenery.That image on the left… that’s my favorite ❗ OH! I’m so glad she’s found someone so damn great!

I love this one… 😀

This one was taken during their engagement session in 2009… at the house they had just bought (my processing style has changed a bit since then…)[br] I noticed that their chair was still in the exact same place. So, I thought it’d be fun to re-create it… but this time, with Jettie. 🙂

2012

[br] [br] [br] [br] I got an email from Sarah noticing another similarity… 🙂

One of my favorite images of all time… again, taken in 2009This one… 2012 🙂 Same/same!
