Engagement Session: Sarah and Sean

Every couple I do an engagement session for gets into the swing of things as we proceed. It doesn't matter how awkward they think they are going to be in front of the camera, eventually a rhythm just takes over, and before you know it, we're done!

I don't think I've ever had a couple get that rhythm down as quickly as Sarah and Sean did. They were in full engagement photo mode!

I seriously had to ask numerous times if they had done a photoshoot before.

This was actually my first repeat location and I was a little nervous about it. I want every couple to have a unique experience because they are unique people. I don't ever want one of my clients to feel like they are one of the masses. I've done two shoots in Fells Point before, but in completely different areas. This shoot took place in Sherwood Gardens, a tulip garden in Baltimore in which I had shot an engagement session just over a year ago.

My butterflies were all for nothing. I should have realized that a completely different couple can make a location feel like a completely different place.

We spent just over an hour wandering around the gardens and choosing places to shoot. I'm fairly certain that if it weren't for the fact that almost all of the flowers are tulips, you wouldn't even know it was the same place!

We had a great time chatting and walking and shooting, and they made my job easy with their ability to pose and move with hardly any direction. 

Best wishes to Sarah and Sean on their wedding this fall and more importantly, their marriage!
