Eddie + Lilian | Engaged
Fredericksburg Wedding Photographer
Engaged ~ July 27, 2010
106 Degrees…
… that’s what my thermometer said inside my car as I pulled up to meet Lilian and Eddie. I was experiencing that tug-of-war feeling… I was so excited to see them and go give them a huge hug but man, I was dreading getting out of the car. It was HOTTTT! Four T’s doesn’t even describe how hott it was! But Eddie and Lilian are hard core. They didn’t quit and we didn’t cut their session short at all! We hit a ton of locations that Lilian had picked out and wow, did we find some neat spots! After half of the session was over, we were walking to the next spot, just talking, and we found a sketchy old garage! JACK POT!
Lilian is awesome and thinks the same way I do. The older, grungier, dirtier.. the better! However, even though we found this awesome little spot, it was definitely private property and we found ourselves whispering to each other, trying not to be heard. I always say, it’s better to ask forgiveness than permission when it comes to photography because once you have even one shot… it’s worth it!
.
Eddie and Lilian, I had a blast with you guys! Sweat and all! Your November wedding is going to be absolutely perfect and I can’t wait to celebrate with you!! Enjoy some of my favorites!
Want to know a secret?…. this was in a median… like in the middle of the road! …. and it’s one of my favorites!

Brian: ( July 27, 2010 8:18 pm ) the broken roof ones are great. the sketchier, more prohibited places always appeal to me more than just a preconceived idea of a place being "beautiful". Can't wait for the wedding.

Michael: ( July 27, 2010 7:59 pm ) Soo much fun!!! Love the first one when they are in the building where the roof is messed up, great light, and the first baseball one...GREAT JOB!!
Eddie: ( July 27, 2010 7:48 pm ) Katelyn: Love the posts, can't wait to see all of the pics. I had an absolute blast taking the photos with you. Can't wait for the wedding, and thanks again for bearing the heat with us.
