Elise + Carsen
Elise and I have been talking about this session for a VERY long time. We’ve been making plans, talking about ideas and gathering things for this session for longer than I’m allowed to say. ;) Needless to say, she is one of my most excited brides. I’ll be going with them to Galveston in June to shoot their dream wedding and I cannot wait! I’ve actually never been to Galveston before and they keep telling me how much I am going to love it.. and Elise and I are already working on some ideas for shooting while in Galveston.. so I am EXTREMELY excited!! For anyone who know Elise and Carsen know they are perfect for one another. No question. They are such a beautiful couple and I’m honored to be able to work with them!!! Here are a few favorites from their engagement session!!! (Hair and makeup by Tiffany P! Amazing as always!!!) :)
I LOOOOOVE this image.
Elise has THE most gorgeous eyes ever!
LOOVE again!
Yes, I wrote these. Yes, it was fun. YES, I was covered in sidewalk chalk when we were finished. :)
Just FYI.. this is ON the green on a golf course. Elise = golf, Carsen = drums… why not? :)
A little bit of fun trivia…. we hauled this drum set in pieces on 2 golf carts; Elise and Carsen on 1 and Elise’s dad (Stewart) and I on the other. (I held the big drum in my lap and one of the smaller ones between my feet.) I wish we had had someone take a picture of us! :)
I think in the long haul, it was worth it. :)
AGAIN with the eyes! My gosh!
One detail of the wedding are these numbers!! These are the reception table numbers! Rather than just having signs, each table will have an image from their engagement session with the table number in it!!! Here are a few of my favorite table number shots!!! :)
