Beth and Charlie's engagement session had a hometown theme with us featuring the city they live in and will be married in - Crown Point, Indiana. Certainly with Fall colors in the air, a romantic kiss in a pile of leaves was in order. We also spent time in their lovely neighborhood with it's wonderful tall trees and even took some images inside their home.

We then made our way to the Crown Point Square where we used the iconic front steps of the Old Courthouse as well as ducking into a few business in the area for more hometown flavor.

Beth and Charlie were my second of four engagement sessions this week alone. So, this is only a sneak peek look at their fun photo shoot in Crown Point. Stay tuned for more to come. In the meantime, here is one more portrait shot at the steps of the west entrance to the Grande Old Lady (aka - Old Courthouse building). Hope you are enjoying the Fall color and the crisp temperatures!!

When Katherine told me I would be photographing her and Justin on her parent's farm, this city boy was excited to make the drive south to Lowell, Indiana. It was a spectacular setting and we took romantic engagement photos in an adjacent bean field as well as portraits with farmland and a private lake as our backdrop.

I almost crashed the ranger we were driving on into a ditch of dirty water but thankfully no casualties at this session to report!! We simply drove around the vast property and when I saw a photo opportunity like this soft, sun drenched pathway we took it. We went for soft, romantic natural light images such as the one below as well as capturing the dramatic sky as the sun peaked out behind some wicked looking clouds. We had a lot of fun!!

A big thank you to Katherine's parents for letting us use their property for their daughter's and Justin's engagement photos. This is a sneak peek preview with many more to come.
