Kate is my cousin and she is graduating from high school this year so I thought I would hook her up with some really cool pictures. My cousin and my aunt and uncle were pretty impressed with the Cotton Mill where the session took place. I always enjoy sharing the history of the place with clients while we are shooting there. I'm kind of nerd and my cousin would say that I a huge nerd. What can I say?

This is probably my favorite picture from the day. I picked up Kate from her high school where she is really into theatre and theatre tech. She has been in a LOT of plays and musicals. So I thought a picture of her sitting on the stage looking out at the audience was especially befitting of who she is as a senior.

I wrote about this trip early in 2009, but for some reason the entry got corrupted so I am reposting the link to the slideshow for the landscape photos I took during that vacation.

Philip and Crystal have a really cool story about how they met, which I got to learn more about during their engagement session the other day. They met at a Christian kids camp in Missouri where they both worked. Philip told me that they didn't even know of each for the first couple of years, but when they started looking back at Crystal's photos he was in the background of a few; kind of like Big Foot is in all of those blurry forest photos. I thought that was funny.
They both told me straight up that they were goofy and felt a little awkward in front of the camera. I kept telling them they were doing great and they had fun just laughing about the whole thing. I totally sympathize because we had our family portraits done the other day and I don't feel natural at all on the other side of the camera.
I think these photos really capture their laughter, smiles, and love. Mission accomplished! I'm looking forward to their Dallas Wedding at the Orion Ballroom in a couple of weeks.
