When Candice approached me for an engagement session the brief was was simple, she wanted images that represent their journey ahead.
She actually wanted a similar shot to one she had seen of the kids on the blog, but as always when one tries to duplicate an image it never works, as light and conditions are always different.
I think we managed meet the brief in our own way!
Chantal and Jean-Paul, aka Sean ;-), booked an engagement session last week. Our planned location did not work out, but, I think we came up with an even better alternative. Nothing like thinking on one's feet!
Just before I post the images selected for this post, I thought I would explain: Kelly Moore, an American wedding photographer, whose blog I frequent, ran a post with a small contest about shooting in sunshine.
Thought I would give it a go and have selected images which were shot into the sun.
I may do a second post on this shoot just to show you how gorgeous Chantal and JP are!
Oh these are stunning! So you also stalk Kelly's blog? Sweet. Good luck for the competition!

What is next ?
Next thing you know you will be extradited to the US or Australia because you are wasting your talent in this country. I think your clients should start paying you in dollars ( not Zim ones ).
I love the sunlight on the tail shot.
Best regards
Paul
