When I first moved out to Boston, my sister insisted that I had to be friends with this girl named Meaghan. Kyla told me how hilarious and awesome this Meaghan was, and she wasn’t kidding. She’s got this dry sense of humor, and is just the kind of person that you can’t help but like. Meaghan was part of my LIFEgroup at GENESIS for almost 3 years and has become a very dear friend. When she & Steve started dating, it didn’t take any of us very long to realize that they were perfect for each other. I’m not sure if I’ve ever met two people better suited for one another. And what’s even better is how ridiculously happy they are together!! I was totally pumped when they asked me to shoot their wedding because I couldn’t wait to capture that joy :)

When planning their eSession, I told them (as I tell all of my clients) that we should do something that’s very “them.” I try to make the Engagement Session like a snapshot of the couple in real life. My hope is to capture them doing things they like to do together, and just being themselves. For Meg & Steve, I knew that we had to go fishing! These two go fishing all the time, and I find that so fascinating since I haven’t fished in like 20 years :) Steve thought that was the best idea ever, so a couple weeks ago we grabbed their rods and headed out to the pond…

and Steve :)

He had to show us his “big catch”

Honestly, this next photo says more about their relationship than I can express. The way they’re holding each other and still holding their own poles, the subtle smile on their lips as they kiss, every little detail speaks to who they are and what their life is like. I’m tearing up just looking at it – it’s just so THEM!

After we caught a few fish, they let me take a few portraits in the nice warm light.

They’re so cute :)

Meg & Steve, I love you guys! I’m so happy for you I could burst :D
