I LOVE Day After sessions.  Erin and John wanted their wedding day to unfold naturally without any formal photos.  They wanted to spend more time with their guests and truly take-in their day.  So one week later they put their (awesome) wedding clothes back on and made time for some portraits with me.  We had a blast!  And Erin wore cowboy boots … how could it get any better than that?

Erin and John are genuine, gracious and fun.  One of my favorite parts of the session was driving down a rural road to the second location only to be surrounded (I mean, surrounded) by thousands of huge, fairy-tale-like dragon flies.  It was magical, ethereal, lovely.  I can’t believe I didn’t capture it on camera but I was completely lost in the wonder of it.

Congratulations, Erin and John!  Thanks for setting aside some time after your wedding day to get some portraits.  I had a great time!

Photographers’ note:  I got a tilt shift lens, as you can see in a few of the photos above :)  So far I only have a handle on using it in non-backlit situations, but I’m excited that all the ethereal loveliness I envision in my head can come to life straight out of camera!
