I met Erin a couple of years ago when she contacted Brad to design her website. She is the fabulous lady behind LePooch luxury pet services! Remember when I took pictures of her for her site? Now she is very happily engaged to John and they wanted to go a special spot at Hoover Reservoir for their engagement pictures. They used to live nearby and walked their dogs there all the time. It was an amazing spot and I love that it holds special meaning for them.
Normally I shoot by myself but this time around I asked my good friend Jessica if she would like to come along and second shoot. She and her husband Rob are good friends with Erin and John (this is how Erin found out about Brad’s web design skills) and Jessica has also been desiring to learn more about photography! I had such a fun time on this shoot:):) Thanks Jess for doing this with me, and especially thank you to Erin and John for being such awesome people and so adorably in love:)
Eskimo kisses!
They were laughing because I kept telling them to get their faces really close together. BUT I love these type of photos sooooo much:)
Jessica’s shot:

Jessica’s view:
You both look radiant in this photo. Erin, you’re gorgeous:)
Their beloved dog, Dawn, came for some photo action. She looks almost exactly like my dog, Harvey, and we were joking that they’re gonna get married someday:)
And, in case you were wondering what it looks like when I’m shooting (or in this case fixing hair) here you go. Thanks Jessica for taking some behind the scenes shots!
And a ridiculous picture of Jessica and I. I look half drunk but it’s still fun:) Thanks for taking it Erin!
Also, one more photo…of beautiful Hoover Reservoir at sunset.
