Ashton & Jennifer | Engagement

When Jennifer's dad sat her down and told her that Ashton wanted to court her, she was totally surprised. She had no clue he was interested and it was completely out of the blue. Her first thought was, "This will never work." But we all know our God is the God of the impossible, right? :-) It didn't take very long before they both knew this was it. Ashton popped the question in early spring and a couple weekends ago they came up for their engagement photos.

The day was perfect - it may have been a tad warm but the light was gorgeous and so was the scenery. We tried out a new location for me - a local river walk, which afforded a nice variety of picturesque spots. I'm so excited to share these with you and looking forward to their wedding in September!
Enjoy - definitely some new top favorites here!

They're in love with each other.
I'm in love with Canon L glass.

Beautiful ring!

Jennifer, you are so beautiful!

    Very, very nice work Kathryn. Some of your best I think. Great poses and such a nice area to take them in.
    It helps of course to have such a handsome couple :-)

      Thanks, Oma! Haha, yeah, she almost backed out when he was "looking for a non-slippery rock" to stand on. :-) Glad she didn't though, it turned out cute!

    Kathryn! These are gorgeous! You're pretty much a pro at posing, lemme tell you. =) And I love the results of the lens you rented! The pier ones are my favorites. Funny, I was thinking "Wow, these remind me of Katelyn James" and then I saw Hannah's comment - I wasn't the only one! ;-)

    Awsome pictures! Like the others, I was thinking that the photos were so Katelyn James-ish. :) Love it!

    Which L lens did you fall in love with? ;)

      Thank you!! The lens is the 100mm f/2.8L... I've used it before but really only used its macro capabilities (which already had me smitten) but this time I tried it out as a portrait lens and really fell head over heels. :-)
