We met Stephanie and Luke almost 8 months ago back at a bridal expo.. You ever meet someone and start talking and not realize how much time has passed? Stephanie and Luke were the last couple to visit our booth that day and we should have gotten the clue that expo was over, when the cleaning crew asked us how much longer we’ll be set up.. Oooops. After all the Star Wars jokes had been made and we met our quota of 51 Family Guy quotes and references, we said our goodbyes and met the following week to finalize our arrangements to photograph their wedding.
I couldn’t wait to meet Steph and Luke for their engagement session on Saturday. We were so excited, we arranged to meet at the park at 7:45am!! Well, the fact that it was going to be 95 degrees by noon didn’t hurt the early risers.
Within minutes, the ice had been broken (ahhh, actually some ice would have been really great), and Luke and Stephanie appeared to be so comfortable in front of the camera enjoying their time together.
We began to move around the lake (trying not to steal a fresh burger from one of the families already out there BBQing) to some of my favorite spots. To say that they were “good troopers” would be putting it mildly. I don’t know what it’s like to wear three inch heals but I would imagine that walking across some rocks in them is not an easy feat (every pun intended).
One can truly see how in love Stephanie and Luke are, how much fun they have together and what a great time we’re going to have photographing their wedding.
Below is a small preview of their session. Please become fans of Christine Studios on facebook to be notified when the full gallery of Saturday’s engagement session is posted.
