Kristi and Jason before they got soaking wet

Engagement

May 7th, 2009

I’m not going to lie: I think I controlled the weather on Saturday with my mind. It’s alright if you’re impressed. I was driving over the Coast Range on my way out to the Oregon Coast to meet with Kristi & Jason, one of my August wedding couples, and it was a complete deluge. Then, by sheer willpower, I got the sun to come out for about an hour so we could take some fun pictures. Then, when I wanted rain, I turned around and it was coming my way. Amazing.

So, now that we’ve established I can control the weather, check out this amazing couple! I had so much fun on the coast with Kristi and Jason on Saturday, and I can’t wait to photograph their wedding in August. They’re such a great-looking and fun couple, and they take such great pictures I seriously had trouble picking some favorites to put up on the blog.

Kristi and Jason run – in fact, Kristi told me that Jason is a triathlete – and so we did some fun photos with their running shoes on. They were having so much fun, it was great.

Here’s a funny story about Jason: when he smiles for the camera, it’s a good smile. But when I told Kristi to lean over and kiss him on the cheek, he totally lit up. That’s the smile of a man in love.

I have so many photos I want to share from this great engagement session that I’m going to post some more tomorrow – stay tuned!
