There's a moment during every engagement session where I find out, instantly, how cool the couple I'm working with is. Normally what happens is I spot a location that would make for great photos or think of a rather difficult pose to pull off and ask the couple if they're up for it.
How they respond to my idea or suggestion reveals a lot about their personalities and, frankly, couples don't get much more fun to be around than Jocelyn and Ricky.
Jocelyn and Ricky chose Newport and Middletown, Rhode Island for their engagement session and it was, without question, one of the most fun times I've ever had with a couple. We rode around Aquidneck Island with both of their moms in the car and had an incredible time laughing about life, love and families.
And when it came time for me to ask them to venture into a fairly odd patch of weeds, sticks, rocks and grass because I thought it would make for cool photos? They went right for it without a doubt.
Yes, this is my kind of couple. And this kind of couple is EXACTLY why I love what I do.
If you'd like to see why I'm not exaggerating and Jocelyn and Ricky were one of my favorite couples to shoot engagement photos with ever, check out the photos for yourself by clicking here.
As always, thanks for reading and be sure to let me know what you think!
