Laura and Kurt: Pittsburgh, PA Engagment Session PART 2

Hello blogging world. I've missed you! I have babies, boudoir, engagement sessions, and weddings to share with you. Whew! Where to start? Well, first I want to share with you the second half of my FAB engagement shoot with Laura and Kurt. For part two of this session there was a clothing change, location change, and scenery change.

We put away the wine and bistro table and headed out to the airport where Kurt's plane was docked. (Not sure if "docked" works for a plane but I'm going for it.) Along the way we stopped to pick up his family's MG so we'd have even more coolness to work with. It was a gorgeous day! Blue skies with puffy clouds make very nice backdrops especially with planes :-)

Thanks to my computer spending some time at the Apple hospital for a new video card, Kurt and Laura have had to wait longer than usual for this post. So, I will skip the small talk and get right to their gorgeous images! Here you go guys.


Kurt sporting his dad's Navy bomber jacket and looking very GQ!






This may be my favorite image ever!






Cue the super cool, British two-seater

















Lastly, my new favorite toy....my Polaroid camera. If you are a client of mine you can be sure you'll end up with instant picture at some point.



Thank you again Kurt and Laura! I had copious amounts of fun with you guys and cannot wait until your wedding!!!!

Cheers,

Laura and Kurt: Pittsburgh, PA Engagement Session

I first met Laura and Kurt a little over a year ago. They were one of the first couples to book for 2010. I knew immediately they were going to be an awesome couple! Laura brought her mother's wedding album to show me in the hopes that we could recreate some of the iconic shots. I am a huge fan of all things sentimental and old so it goes without saying that I loved this idea. And I have to say that her mom had a pretty cool wedding photographer! Some of the images had really unusual angles and poses. I was pleasantly surprised.

We talked more about what we wanted their shoot to look like and during the course of this conversation I found out that Kurt was a pilot and had access to a plane. "Umm, pretty please can we use the plane as a prop?" They loved the idea as much as I did and so the planning began. (Remember that I love all things old and sentimental? Kurt wore his dad's Navy bomber jacket for the airplane shots! How cool it that?!) Then Kurt informs me that his family has an MG and they would like to include it in the shoot as well. Right about now I'm wondering how the heck I got so lucky and then I remind myself...I've got the best clients EVAH!!!

Okay, so, plane...check. MG...check. What could possibly make this any better? How about some wine, a little bistro table, and a super awesome couple? Check, check, and check! Because this session had two distinct looks to it I'm going to post it in two separate posts. The first will be the vintage ones so look for the airplane/car shots next. There are so many great images that I had a hard time choosing but here are some of my favorites!


Laura and Kurt found this tiny alley for us to set up.



Love, love, love these next three!







This just makes me laugh!!!









Love these!






SO sexy!






I adore this image!






AND....a sneak peek of my next post. FAB!!!



Laura and Kurt, if you're reading this I had a BALL with you guys and cannot wait until your wedding!!!
