Engagement Photos

There was exactly one weekend until the wedding that we had the opportunity to take engagement photos. My dad wanted to do them so we flew him out here last weekend. It was luckily David's bye week for games so we had a few hours on Saturday to take them.

David had food poisoning the Friday before so I was so worried that he was going to look sickly in his pictures. Luckily I was able to take care of him all day and make sure he ate food that was gentle on the stomach so he didn't lose too much weight. He was just fine on Saturday, he just wouldn't kiss me for safety's sake.

My dad did a great job and he bought a new camera just for the shoot. Any reason to get a new toy, right? Although he wasn't anticipating the new camera to be pretty significantly heavier than the previous one.

We went to 3 different sites, but after David and I weeded through the photos we liked it looks as though we could have stopped after the first location. Yep, we did that well! I'm only slightly kidding-- we just have that much chemistry I guess. :)

Here are a few of our favorites for your enjoyment (including the new main picture):





And of course we have to throw one in with some of our personality shining:



Not bad for free pictures taken by a dentist who does photography as a hobbie! My dad is so talented :)

Hope you like them as much as we do!

Happy Valentine's day <3
