Beautiful Engagement Photos, Country Style
Posted on July 12, 2010
I had the privilege to take these beautiful engagement photos in the country on a huge farm near Warner, Alberta. This is possibly the cutest engaged couple that I have photographed to date, and just being around them for five minutes will tell anyone how madly in love they really are. They bought their farm a year ago, and it is so incredible! Aside from all of their land that surrounds it, the yard is full of mature trees, bushes, perennial gardens and great little “coves” tucked in here and there… perfectly designed for taking awesome photographs. It was so much fun hunting around for the best places to test out for Denise and Jeremy’s engagement session!
We started out front in their trees, in a few of the secret hideaways we found (trying to stay out of the light rain that just had to grace us with it’s presence that day). It didn’t take long for them to get comfortable and just “be” together, so I got a lot of great images right off the bat! We did have to relocate two of their dogs however, who just couldn’t resist getting cozy with their family while I had the couple sitting on the ground for a few casual shots. It was pretty funny! Then, when we were sure the rain had passed, we headed out to the barn. The light was so nice in the doorway, and I just loved the photos we got up in the barn’s loft too… so gorgeous and romantic.
I loved being able to take your engagement photos you guys… and can’t wait to try out a few more of the great locations out there for your wedding very soon! A wedding on the farm… what could be better? So excited! I hope you adore and cherish these images as much as I enjoyed creating them for you. You know that I love you and am so grateful that you have found the love of your life and best friend in each other, and I feel blessed to be a witness to your marriage and happiness. xoxo
p.s… for those of you who don’t know this yet… Denise is my sister, and Jeremy is my soon-to-be brother!
