a casual engagement session...

Just stopping in to share a few engagement photos that I took recently for a friend & her fiance... 

This weekend I will be taking photos at their wedding, so I am a bit nervous, because I am really not a wedding photographer... I have a couple of books about wedding photography & I am going to read up a bit today. 

I will probably look around Pinterest too! Hopefully they will give me a few good tips... 

photography: a family photo shoot by the trains

I recently got to take some fun photos of one of my favorite families!! I have been friends with them for  several years. I have taken 'couple photos' of them before they had kids & I have taken pictures of their girls when they were only days old... So taking family shots of all four of them was really fun!! Their girls are so cute & they are growing so fast! When I look at these photos I can't help but think about how fast time goes...

For this shoot, we went down to the old trains... Thinking back on several of the past photo shoots I have done, they all seem to be down by the trains. This place is the most popular location where I live! I am even taking some engagement shots there this weekend. Everyone loves old trains, including me!! :)
