Suzie and Zane are such a fun-loving couple, which made for an enjoyable engagement shoot. We started at the Richland Parkway then headed to the Columbia River to catch some great light. A gorgeous tree at Tangles hair salon (where Suzie works) happened to be in full bloom, so we stopped there for last-minute photos. We're looking forward to shooting their wedding in September!
Jennifer & Brian | Wedding Photos | Central United Protestant Church, Richland, WA
Photographers occasionally get blessed with a bride with a natural smile stuck on her nonstop...and we were lucky to have Jennifer fill this role! Both Jennifer & Brian were terribly fun to work with! This was one of the largest weddings we've ever shot, and they had the fun idea to get a single photo with all of them in the church. Four-hundred people staring at you for the shot. No pressure, right? We're thankful it turned out. :) One of the best ideas we've seen was for the garter toss. Normally, the garter goes 4 feet and guys don't fight for it. Brian wrapped it around a football and, of course, guys compete to catch a football! It's something we'll recommend to many future grooms.
We were able to get just enough time to take them to Leslie Groves park where the dwindling fall color looked amazing. Central United Protestant (CUP) Church made for some challenging lighting but a beautiful venue.
Shelby & Chris | Engagement Photos | Howard Amon Park, Richland, WA
We were lucky to get the last of the fall color with Shelby & Chris. We'd scouted Howard Amon Park in Richland, which seemed to hold the best colors on and off the trees. Shelby & Chris were great sports and were up for pretty much trying anything. Shelby had made lots of signs to use, which gave us flexibility and some fun shots! ...we told her we'd buy them from her when she's done! We're looking forward to shooting their wedding in Zillah next September!
