Derek + Alissa Engagement Session in Pontotoc, Mississippi
Expansive green fields. Old rustic shops. Roads with little more than dirt, trees, and deep blue skies...and my little brother and the love of his life. We started the day off with lots of laughs and lots of coaxing. I never thought that I would shoot my greatest engagement shoot, but I must say that it happened. I captured everything I wanted to capture in the full comfort of my craft (complete with family in tow).
To see the love in their eyes..the love in his eyes..the love she has for him and the love he has for her. That's obvious to everyone. But what people don't quite know is that these two met 10 years ago in middle school. I'm not quite sure if they knew it then that they were meant to be. But, they are indeed the lucky ones. They are the ones the see love for what it is and move forward with it. They take a leap and don't wait for life or social constructs to decide what is right. As Cartman from "Southpark" says "[They] do what they want." They love how they want.
Please enjoy a few of these pictures as much as enjoyed taking them.
