What a cold, but beautiful, morning! This morning I did my first sunrise engagement session with the beautiful Quynn and Phil. I cannot wait to photograph their wedding in a few short months! I knew when I met them this week that I would love them. These two are just such a down-to-earth couple. I feel so honored to be their photographer! Did I mention that they are my first wedding booked for the year?

Quynn was the one to tell me about their engagement story, and it seriously got me a little choked up. I won’t go into too much detail but, gah! Amazing. I only hope that I can help honor her mother during their wedding day. What a heartfelt memory for this family to share with one another. I know Quynn’s mother is looking down with such great joy in her eyes as these two prepare to become one.

Did I mention how stinking cute their little pup is?! Just precious. Although she was more interested in everything but taking pictures, I’m glad we were able to snap some good ones!

Talk about a great start to the morning. I can’t wait to do more engagement sessions with couples like this one!

It’s sad that this will be my first and one of my last weddings here in the Manhattan, Kansas area! In just a few short months I will be in North Carolina, scouting the Fayetteville, Raleigh, and Wilmington area for future Brides and Grooms! I hope they can be at the same level as Phil and Quynn, simply wonderful.
