Chandler + Ryan

There’s nothing quite as sweet as the love that these two have for eachother. They’ve got something special, and oh my oh my does it show.

I’ve dreamt of this shoot for quite literally years as I’ve been camping at Turner Falls at least once a year for the last 5 years. It’s always been my dream to take a super hip couple out here and explore. To hike and find wicked yummy light and be adventurous. So when these two got engaged I was literally so ecstatic. I just had to ask them to model for me and make this session come alive.

So this set was born. We got stuck in the worlds worst traffic because they literally shut down I-35 for an hour and a half due to a tanker accident, so we lost some major light due to being stuck. Then we finally make it to the park and there’s a wildfire brewing in the distance, less than a few miles from the park. But apparently that’s normal up there! (Ee.) Then some of my favorite spots in the park were completely shut down. So hiccup after hiccup, we worked with what we had and continued the shoot!! But seriously, this set made it all worth it. Chandler + Ryan rocked it major, and I crushed it with some of the best images I’ve produced in a while.

I’m thankful for creativity, for couples who don’t mind being weird with me, and hiccups that make for great stories.

So here goes, enjoy a little piece of my creative brain. It’s a long one, but it’s a wicked good one. <3

With Love,
