Engaged: Kate & Johan

Today was a spectacular Saturday. Weather wise, it was supposed to thunderstorm all day but instead there was sunshine throughout the day and then perfect overcast just in time for this awesome engagement session. Kate and Johan are getting married this summer- and oh-what a beautiful bride and groom they will be! We decided to have their session at the St. Anthony Main area; surrounded by dozens of perfect locations for a variety of shots. Kate and Johan brought their pups for a few of the shots and while they were slightly uninterested in paying attention to my whistling and kiss-y noises, they were very well-behaved. They were even dolled up in a bow-tie and tu-tu.

Bella and Bambino:





Two hours flew by as we made our way throughout the ruins, pathways, Stone Arch Bridge, nearby buildings and graffitied walls down by the river.

 These two met in high school and Johan sounded like he felt like the luckiest guy in the world when he added " We saw each other in the hallway... we didn't even have a class together!" Sometimes things really are meant to be. And even after seven years, these two are still so in love! I think Johan accented Kate just right; making her laugh when it was time to be goofy and made sure not to crack a smile when it was time for a serious look.

 

I cannot wait for their wedding this summer! Our styles seem to click just right throughout the entire session. Kate has a great eye and I loved that she loved the brick walls, and graffiti walls and the romantically quirky addition of the balloons. Even in their nicest attire, and heels, we made our way down some fairly steep stairs to get to the urban-coated walls by the river. And they definitely knew how to work it!
