Hawaiian Engagement Photos Round 2: Chelsey & Barry

**For the best viewing experience, open up the first photo & use the left & right arrow keys on your keyboard to navigate through the photos.**

Here’s another engagement session I didn’t think I’d get to shoot since they’re on Hawaii & I’m not—yet anyway :) .  But since we got to go over to shoot Sarah & Matt’s  wedding on Kauai, we made sure to spend some time on Oahu to meet up with Chelsey & Barry. Usually I’m pretty good at finding locations to shoot, but I left it up to the locals this time & I’m so glad I did. They didn’t want beach shots since their wedding will be on a beach, and they wanted something different for these.

There is no way I’d ever have found this little secret garden/dog park that’s hidden through a small walkway in the back of a park. The best part is that we had the whole football sized area to ourselves the entire session. It was gorgeous. The light was beautiful & showed the beautiful, lush foliage to perfection. Chelsey & Barry & their photos were complete ‘Hawaii,’ so laid back & so my style. Plus, we had the fortune of having the super-fun four-legged Winnie accompany us as we explored—after all it was a dog park.

I love the trees  of Hawaii almost as much as the beaches (that is a hint about the Hawaii wedding post coming up), so of course we had to finish up the session under the shade of the monstrous tree where Chelsey & Barry have picnicked previously.

Do I have to say I can’t wait to get back for their wedding in May? Probably not, but I will anyway. :)

Spokane Family Photographer: Fullmer Family

Challenge? What challenge?

A family session with 9 kids? How tough could that be?

As it turns out, not so tough at all. Especially when it’s the Fullmer family. We had a great session down by the Spokane River & everybody was about as well behaved as can be—except for maybe me. As a dad of 3 really (well, mostly) well behaved girls I don’t see any way to square that number & stay sane. But not only were they sane, they were a pleasure & it was very inspiring for me to see how they interacted with each other. Truly a happy family. :)

Thanks to my own Reagan for going along & helping to entertain the younger ones while I was taking pictures.

For photographers: The first photo is a composite of 5 different photos so I could get a wide shot with a shallow depth of field since we had to be closer to the tree line than I wanted to.
