Engagement in a garden a la mode

As a photographer living in a wonderful city of Chattanooga TN, I can't be happy more in spring. Spring is a wonderful time for clearing out my mind(and closet) & generate new ideas. I always start with my tiny-bitty garden(come on people, if I want to call my yard a garden, I can, right?). I love colors. I love flowers. I love photography.  And one day I thought that I want to photograph a couple in the garden with all the pretty little things like shovels & baskets & all kinds of random things found in my house & in stores nearby. Most off the props come from flea markets & yard sales, some are bought at TJMaxx & all the flowers come from Lowe's.

Benjamin Jones & Sarah Thomas were my models for this shoot. Ben and Sarah met at Lee University while they were both working in Residential Life. Ben likes to collect comic books, read comic books, and watch comic book movies. Sarah likes to make fun of him for doing so (in a loving manner, of course). She also loves to collect small, furry animals (preferring the real to the stuffed ten out of ten times) and hopes to one day own her own craft business. Ben wants to become a professional writer, either by writing novels of syndicated columns, perhaps even both. Most of all, they want to do it all together, and as of July 2011, that'll be the way it is.

They know how to have fun & be happy together. It was a great pleasure to photograph you guys! I'm also a slideshow freak as you might know, so you'll see a slideshow as well.

Enjoy!
