I’m listening to my iPod write now and the lyrics I just heard were, “I still remember the day we met…”.
Maria and David met in High School and how I know how excited Maria is to see this day come is how excited she had been with all of the details. Almost every other day leading up to her session she would mail me new ideas, things that she loves, would like to try, everything. My response? Let’s work in props that reflect who you are as a couple, individuals, etc.
Oh. Also I threw the idea of big balloons in because I’ve been playing with an idea for a while. What did I get?
Maria decided that the first location would be their home. Backyard, bedroom, living room, front yard, stairs, you name it and we most likely shot there! Second location was a local hotel where her friends have enjoyed dinner and boasted a lovely courtyard and pool area. The last location was a local park with wide fields for us to play in. The props? Her favorite book. The first gift David gave her in high school, a snow globe, bubble gum, lollipops, balloons, and lovely lovely lovely clothes. When I showed up David was laughing over how excited she has been.
Okay, no Lyle Lovett is crooning on my iPod which is probably my cue that the writing portion of this entry is over, time for pictures!

I love this image of them on their bed.
When they were jumping I kept thinking this is what we imagine we will do in our very own home when we are small children yearning for independence. But how often do we actually do it?
Isn’t her dress the cutest! Don’t even mention the shoes.
Twilight is one of her favorite books. We moved to the front yard for these pictures, much to the delight of the neighborhood children. Hey, if people don’t stop to stare then we’re not doing it right!
I know I shouldn’t include this solo of Maria, it unbalances the per person picture ratio, but, um, I love it. ;p
I love these images. There’s something so polaroid about them.
Hello BALLOONS!
Floating away! Umm, if anyone sees David can they please let us know?
