Sarah & Bobby | Xavier University Engagement

Xavier University Engagement PhotosYou know those people who come into your life for only a short amount of time but you wish you could just keep them right where they are for a little while longer? That's Sarah for me. She and I coached gymnastics for a year together in Cincinnati and it wasn't long enough! Sarah is a really good person. Really good. And she's a fantastic coach and so popular with the girls. We're both coaching again, but in different states, and I wish I could just transport her to my new gym. :) She makes everything more fun, even a photo session!

Sarah and Bobby are getting married later this summer in St. Louis (oh how I WISH I could photograph their wedding!), but wanted to document an important time in their lives--college at Xavier University in Cincy where they met. How cool is it that they're both originally from St. Louis, just happened to attend a little college called Xavier (three states away!) and met at the beginning of their time in Cincy? So cool!

We really trekked around campus (which just happens to be right near MY old Cincinnati stomping grounds) to capture them in all the good spots ...

Sara & Jim | Indigo Lake Portraits

Lifestyle Engagement Photographer Sara and Jim are two of my favorite people ever. I did their engagement photos last fall, and when I put out a plea on Facebook for models for a teaching session I was planning for my second shooters, they didn't hesitate. I'm so incredibly happy we got to work together again because these two are so fun. Jim has such a good attitude and a constant smile and Sara giggles at everything he whispers in her ear. Perfect. :)

Fun news: I'm starting to play with film. :) :) Sara and Jim were super patient with me while I switched between my film camera and my digital one. Up there on the left is film, digital is on the right.

Alright, I have to brag on my second shooters a bit … that one up there on the right is from my new assistant Samantha. She has a great eye!
