Erik & I were looking forward to working with Amanda & Will. Will is a teacher in the school district where we live, and when my nephew Joseph, and niece Karianne heard we were photographing “Mr. Kirk”, they were super excited. They told us that he is one of their favorite teachers! It was apparent that many other kids feel the same way, because as we were photographing them, a whole bunch of kids that happened to be in the same park as us kept interrupting with “Oh my god, is that Mr. Kirk? Hi Mr. Kirk!”, all throughout the session. Amanda and Will are an adorable couple who both happen to be teachers! We had a blast hanging out with them and getting to know them better than before

One of our favorites from the day, a great shot of Amanda’s beautiful blue eyes. Doesn’t she look like Reese Witherspoon?

We told them to “just be cute!”, and this was the result. Pretty good huh?

Wolfe Park is so pretty this time of year, and the newly green trees make for a beautiful backdrop with the setting sun peeking in on us.

We love the light in this one, one of our favorite ways to capture two people so comfortable with one another.

Sharing a funny moment!

We found this great bridge overlooking a creek and decided to hop on some rocks for the perfect position! Erik and I always say we do whatever it takes to get the shot, even if it means almost falling in!

We love this one, a quiet moment on a perfect spring evening.

Don’t they look like naturals?

A view looking away from the bridge with the water crashing down on the rocks.

Being themselves and looking great for the camera.

We love the angle on this one.

Gorgeous!

So as we were heading down to the lake, we spied a little hill where the sun was coming down at such a perfect angle and knew we would have to head up it to capture it while we could

It was also nice to be in a little more of a private area without someone yelling out Will’s last name every 5 minutes so that Amanda and Will could get some “quality time” ;p

We love the way Amanda is looking at Will in this one!

And the way she is holding onto him here. Simply adorable

Amanda & Will, thank you so much for being so comfortable with us and allowing us to capture you both as you are – in love! We look forward to talking more about movies and mutual hobbies with you both on your wedding day!

xoxo Vicki and Erik
