Victoria and Jermaine & Tallahassee engagement portraits

Victoria and Jermaine & Tallahassee engagement portraits

I love love LOVE photographing at night.  I love the mood, I love the drama and I love the flocks of people that stop to stare at us!  😛  Victoria and Jermaine were the perfect couple for a modern nighttime session– they have the perfect look for some really powerful images.  And, everyone probably knows, I LOVE drama (but only the good kind!).

Kerry and Lee & Tallahassee engagement portraits

Kerry and Lee & Tallahassee engagement portraits

Kerry and Lee’s parents seem to think they never kiss.  I have half of downtown Tallahassee that can testify to the contrary.  😉  They are such a fun couple and Lee is the farthest thing from serious, so getting some lovey dovey images was a trick.  We just had to time the images in between his jokes and silly faces!

Ashli and Sherri & Tallahassee family portraits

Ashli and Sherri & Tallahassee family portraits

Sometimes a portrait session is as emotional for Olyn and I as it is for our clients.  When Ashli first called me to photograph her and her mom, I knew it would be hard for me to hold back the tears.  Ashli’s mom, Sherri is a cancer survivor.  My own mom is a survivor as well.  The relationship these two have together was highlighted by the thought that they may not have as many years together as they had always assumed.  Now that Sherri is through her battle, it has given them an appreciation for one another and for each day they have.  This is exactly the way I feel about my own mom.  I was so honored we were able to capture these images for them and help them express their love and affection through a photograph.
