Colleen and Evan

How do I describe Colleen?  Bubbly.  Fun.  A darling dresser.  And clearly, she also has good taste in husbands.  Aren't Colleen and Evan so cute together?!

I have to confess.  I was a little worried about this session.  I scheduled it on Monday of Memorial Day weekend after I had done two weddings and another engagement session and I was so afraid, I'd be too tired but thanks to all that working out, I had all kinds of energy and we had a blast together!  It was so cool getting to know Evan and Colleen a bit better.

One of the things I learned is that Colleen isn't a big fan of the ever popular brick wall photos....  So, I tried to convert her.  Hmmm...  She appears to be having fun.

I love when people feel comfortable enough to tell me how they feel.  THAT is SOOOOOO helpful.  If you're feeling awkward or not lovin' the look then it will show.  You won't be all relaxed and adorable as you should be.  So feel free to speak up.  K?  These were working for her so we kept going and I'm SO glad because I ADORE this one!!!!

and this one....

and oh my gosh, this one, too!

Colleen, forgive me but I love this story...  I told them to go stand in the street and kiss.  And I teased them it was okay to really kiss.  Well...  That was all they needed.  A......  while later....  We resumed photos....  Tee hee.  Apparently, after a long weekend with family, a little smooch action was just what they needed to recharge for their drive back home to Chicago!  And you know what?  I'm all for it!  I was thrilled they felt that comfortable with me!

You two are an absolute blast and I'm so looking forward to your big day!!  Thanks for choosing me!!!
