Being a photographer is like an all access pass to some of the most special moments in life. I had the privilege of photographing the engagement of my friends Caleb & Hannah- where he proposed at Vast, 726 feet in the air, atop the Devon tower, with the gorgeous downtown OKC backdrop. Under the guise of Hannah’s birthday dinner, she was totally surprised! CONGRATS YOU TWO!!! Can’t wait to shoot your WEDDING!!

Explored a new town.
Found a secret lair.
Climbed a tree (twice).
Stepped in bird poop.
And got to hang out with this awesome couple.
I’d say this engagement shoot was a success!

Kasey & Andrew came prepared with cute props, quirky outfits and a bit of champagne to make the shoot their own! They have been hilarious and relaxed to work with.

For Sara and Tim’s engagement session, we strolled around downtown Edmond, then found a few woodsy and grassy spots for some more nature-inspired photos. They were adorable, and their candid affection created some really great moments! They looks so good together! And did I mention- very photogenic?
