Katie & Jason: Portrait
Katie has been doing like theee most amazing job ever on the engagement sessions of Mikey and I for our "year of engagement" guest sign in book for our wedding, so I thought the least I could do is repay her with a photoshoot of her and Jason! :-) It's so much fun having one of my closest friends be such an amazing photographer because we get to talk photography all the time, which Jason and Mikey just LOVE (and by love, I mean not love). hehe. But they hang in there and that's why they're the best. :-)
So the other weekend Katie and Jason met me at the Wawa at the corner of 202 and 73, and we proceeded to drive around to some super cool spots for their super fun photoshoot. YAY! Here are a few from their shoot (with a slideshow of some more at end!)
I spied this super cool broken down van in a school parking lot. All the windows were shattered and there was a bit of a mold issue, but Katie and Jason were major troopers. :-)
OK, so the photo below has a fun little story. I had this vision in my mind of wanting to get a photo of Katie and Jason cuddling in a field with a plane flying above. So I found this park by Wings Field, a small local airport. So right when I was completely unprepared with the wrong lens on my camera and like way far away from Katie and Jason, the PERFECT low flying plane swooped over and I was soooo bummed! Well since it was kind of overcast, planes weren't really flying overhead too often, so I told Katie and Jason to be prepared to jump up and cuddle as soon as we heard a motor. Well the below photo is the result of me screaming "GET UP! GET UP, HURRY!!!!" at them (they were currently preparing to pose for the above photo - I completely scared them half to death!) and trying to capture my vision. Well....it didn't quite turn out as my vision and it was the only other plane to fly over us for the rest of the day. :-( I think it looks more like a large bird of prey circling above. haha :-)
Well I was bound and determined to get a shot with a plane in it so we went to Wings Field and befriended some helicopter pilots who let us take some shots really quickly. :-)
And I thought the perfect end to the shoot would be by a horse farm down the road since Katie loves horses. The horses were so beautiful and they came right up to the fence!
And here is a Slideshow of some more from our super fun day!!
Yay Katie and Jason! :-)

AAAAAAHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH!!!!!!!!!!!! I LOOK HOT!!!
Seriously though, you did such an amazing job! I love, love, love so many of them! Psh...more than I will even bother to list. I was smiling all the way through the slideshow.
Favorite....the photo of us laughing when I'm laying on the wall.
Thank you so, so much! I'm gonna have to step up my engagement sessions for you and Mikey. ;-)
Hey Lit! All of these pics are in a league of their own, talking about reaching new horizons, you have nailed it my Lit. The best of the best pics that I enjoyed looking at are the ones with the airplane in the background and the horsey face peeking in. Those are two of my favorites so far. Keep up the amazing photos Lit, your Bean is very very proud of you.
I havent even stopped to look at the slideshow yet because I just HAVE to comment now. These are FANTASTIC! I love the last one the most! And the story behind the plane one cracks me up--plus it's just a great photo.
Katie and Jason look hot, it's true.
I really love the black and white shot in the grass, number 4 I think it was. Just gorgeous!
I really like the last picture best :)
