Melissa + Travis – Collinsville, CT Engagement Session Photos

July 18th, 2009

Melissa + Travis = lots of laughs! They had Erik & I smiling all afternoon – even through the rain. Yeah, these two fit like peas and carrots for sure.

I was liking the “love” graffiti behind them on the bridge.

We like the wispy grass in the foreground – and they don’t look too shabby either ; )

Another fav! The green algae on this lake was so intense because of the dim, rainy weather.

    Oh, I love these!! First of all–Collinsville is one of my favorite places in the world. I know all of these spots! And second–this couple is adorable! And totally cool that they hung out in the rain with you. My favorite of the day is the one where Melissa looks “utterly gorgeous”–just love the mood and composition and her face in that shot. My dream is to buy and totally renovate one of those old buildings to live in. Sigh.
