My college roomie and her hubby are expecting their first addition any day now.  Jessica has been quite the trooper for little Easton and been enduring bed rest for almost 2 months!  Needless to say, we needed to do all of their pics around the house.   My favorite was how much their dogs were posing for the camera.  Most photogenic pets I’ve worked with!  The whole gang is excited to meet this little guy and soon.  Cuteness on the way…

David’s grandfather married them with a very personal message of the legacy of marriage in their families and emphasis on how this is the beginning of their own family.  Tears were easy to find in that beautiful ballroom.  The reception was full of class with all of the personal touches that Courtney added.  The Omni staff did an incredible job of having a full house and keeping the crowd and party moving smoothly.  After dinner, live music filled the …

So, you have gone through the process of choosing a great wedding photographer. Now it is time for the Engagement Session, but what does that really mean?
