Maeve & Johnny

I’m finally getting a chance to post Maeve and Johnny’s engagement session from last week.

The plan had been to go right up a mountain, but, as luck would have it, the road was closed for cars. After walking some of the way, (seriously, it looked easy from the bottom!), we quickly decided that was a too ambitious plan. The view from the bottom was fine actually. Anyway, puffing, sweating, knackered red-faces is a not good look!

Turns out the forest below was the perfect setting for J&M.

Also, it was quite hard to be serious with Johnny around. I don’t think I’ve ever laughed as much on a engagement session. I was tempted to post some of Johnny’s own posing ideas but I think its best if they are kept in a ‘filing cabinet’ for future reference. Its always enjoyable to shoot couples that  laugh together easily. I’m looking forward to the wedding now!

BTW: My son has just come up to the screen proclaiming, “I’ll marry that girl!” He is only four but looks like you have competition Johnny :)
