Quade & Avery Engagement Portraits
I met Avery at work (we both work at the Oklahoma State Capitol) and was immediately drawn to her droll sense of humor and genuine cool girl personality. After getting engaged, Avery asked me about shooting her engagement and wedding photos. We talked through some ideas and she shared her Pinterest inspo board with me. After listening to what type of shoot and photos Avery and Quade were wanting, I was very excited to photograph their engagement session. We decided on shooting by Lake Hefner, and it brought the perfect vibes for what we were going for in the photos.
I, along with every photographer in the OKC area, have shot photos around Lake Hefner many times, but I wanted to find at least one “new” spot to shoot with Avery and Quade. So I arrived a little early and scouted around. This first set of photos is the spot I had never shot at before, and then we moved on to a couple different areas where I have shot before for other sessions. The weather was warm but nice, not too windy - wind can certainly be a problem here in Oklahoma sometimes. We had just a bot of a breeze, enough to give Avery a little bit of supermodel windblown hair and to keep us from sweltering during the photo shoot.
Something about the lake and the sailboats and the warm sunlight and the classic outfits worn by Avery and Quade gave this whole session a quiet luxury, east coast vibe. I really enjoyed the whole thing and I love how the photos turned out! Quade and Avery were also very happy with the session, which of course is what really matters!
I am looking forward to their wedding next year!
Emma - Senior Portraits
Emma is a cool girl who I have known since she was born. She is all grown up and just graduated from high school in the Dallas/Fort Worth area. She loves downtown Fort Worth, and she picked the coolest locations for her senior photo shoot, mostly right around Sundance Square. We grabbed an iced matcha and then had fun taking a million pics!
