Vanessa & Mike

Meet the beautiful Mike & Vanessa. 
Vanessa has a strong and quiet energy to her. Mike is a leader, rooted and solid. It was such a delight to photograph these two. They were kind enough to model for my mentor session with Sarah, a photographer from Idaho who I will be blogging soon, but I just couldn't wait to get my hands on these images. 

Some random facts: These photos were all taken in about a one block radius about one minute from our house. un-planned spontaneity is the best medicine for photo goodness. It's not about where you go, it's about pulling inspiration from the amazing subjects before us, the connection they share and the energy that they breathe into the world. These two have a fantastic energy to them. It's contained, gentle but strong. It makes them incredibly intriguing. 

It started to get a little brisk yesterday... the sun is going down earlier and earlier. I'm starting to think the world is sending me a tragic message that soon my tank tops will be turning into cardigans. Although I live and breathe for the fall months summer cannot go this soon. it just cannot...
