Of course all of the people I work with are incredibly special, but this blog holds a special place in my heart. I had the privilege of photographing engagement photos for my cousin Jonathan (who is very much a grown man but will always be my "baby cousin" and his beautiful fiancé Regina.

With the help of some lovely neighbors, we had a beautiful backdrop to show off their rustic country themed love story. But for real, how great is this barn?

Jon and Regina have two very energetic and large dogs, BUT they were really hoping to get a photo with the two of them. Knowing these puppies, I wasn't so sure we'd make it happen! But sure enough..

Tucker (on the right) & Ruby (left) were both very interested in what I was doing and they behaved beautifully!

We stayed home with the dogs because we just weren't sure how they would respond to photos and didn't want to spend the afternoon chasing them!

Once we got the shots with the pups, off we went!

THAT RING! Isn't it gorgeous!

We decided to leave the beautiful spot we borrowed to try and catch the sunset on the hill back home on the farm. I don't regret this decision one bit! Look at them!!!

I will admit, engagement photos are usually more the ladies style. I try to make it fun for the guys, but I also try to get their opinion or suggestions during the shoot. It's nice when everyone feels included! So, after we played in the sunset and danced around barns..

We drove his truck into a field. ;)

I can not wait to see these two get married. <3 you guys
