Jason & Lily’s Engagement Session

Pink smoke grenades, pink fireworks, and a gorgeous couple open to my creative ideas made for an amazing engagement session with Jason & Lily.  I’d been throwing ideas around for shooting their session and Jason said whatever I came up with would be fine with them. His only request was using the color pink, the main color of their wedding.  I drove all over town and got my hands on some pink smoke grenades where I also stumbled upon fireworks named “Pinkalicious” – I truly hit the jackpot!


That night when they stepped out of their car and I saw what they were wearing, I felt like they’d been reading my mind for what I’d been envisioning. We had a blast and shot all through the “magic hour” of sunset where everything glows, to well after dark, and even did some experimenting with fireworks and slow shutter speeds.  I say all the time that I love my job as a photographer but this was the first time that I ever started crying tears of joy running through their final image edits.  I hope you enjoy these photos as much as I do because these two make my heart go thump thump.
