Cait & Ridiculously Photogenic Mike
"It was so funny to look through the pictures and see us trying to keep a straight face", writes Caitlin after browsing her gallery. This is just a small insight into how much fun these guys are. They are really fun-loving people to the core, and instantly dismissed any insecurities with laughter. You would never be able to tell that half of the time, they were stifling a grin.
I guess it doesn't count as breaking in if the gate is unlocked, and swings open when you 'bump' it.
These Doylestown colors were the perfect backdrop- the perfect reflection of Cait & Mike's personalities.
Look at the expression on Mike- one of the most photogenic, born-for-the-camera people I've photographed. No prompting, no posing, no requests...I just got great facial expressions every time!
Thanks for the fun day, guys!
Eva & Dave
Dave & Eva...so obviously, hopelessly taken by eachother that it awakens the hopeless romantic in me! They were hooked up by friends of theirs, and there was an instant connection. I asked Eva when she knew Dave was the one for her, and without hesitation, she and Dave simultaneously said "we knew". As in, right from the beginning. The best way I can describe their relationship is "timeless". I could tell in the little things Dave did for Eva that he is so completely captivated by her. He always put her first, went out of his way to make her feel comfortable, and through the lens, I caught tons of loving gazes that he threw her way. He watches her like he's mesmerized by her every feature. In contrast, you would expect Eva's independent, confident personality to dominate the relationship. Instead, she lets Dave's love and protection surround her, enabling him to be every bit of man every woman should have. Dave, Eva, it was a pleasure getting to know you both. Watching the two of you interact was such a blessing to my often stifled hopeless romantic heart. I'm confident your relationship will stand the test of time!
The shoot started off a little awkward- like most do- but by the end, they were open to possibility. They were laughing so hard at the absurdity of the situation that I had to force them to make serious faces.
A pavilion blaring "cupid shuffle" to the left, and 5/6 teens to the left, but they still kept their cool!
