Meet Luis & Cara. They got engaged on Christmas.
An explanation for this first shot. Luis is a professional Soccer player in Germany thus the reason I wanted to include the soccer ball in the engagement ring shot, plus a little shout out to the folks at Nike.
Luis has had probably hundreds if not thousands of pictures he appears in with a soccer ball so he was more than accomodating to indulge me for this shot.
Now for the incredibly good-looking couple
I have had a hard time narrowing down this post to just a few favorites so prepare yourself for loads of cuteness. ![]()
A little (or a lot of) lens flare.![]()
Love the way Cara is lookin at Luis in this one
Some Photoshop fun
Finally, just because I can’t resist a “shoe shot”, Photoshop fun added
Congratulations Luis and Cara! Thank you for letting us shoot your engagement session. I will let you know when your private gallery is ready for review.
Wishing you much happiness as you plan your wedding. ![]()
