Bold and Beautiful

 I work with Kelli, and she and my business partner Ashley had been planning on doing some form of a photo shoot for some time. Ashley asked if I wanted to photograph as well, and of course, I was all over it. So the three of us sat together and brainstormed ideas. Where would we go? What kind of shoot would we do? We ended up deciding we should do a shoot in the woods somewhere. Something different. We love Kelli. She allows us to be artistic. She trusts us, and when we ask her to do something crazy, she does it. No questions asked. So we had her bring her craziest outfits, and we set out to find a chair. Ashley managed to find one at a local resale store, and we were off.

Kelli laughs a lot. So do we. We love her for that!

I think this had to be my favorite shot that day. Amazing. Kelli should look into becoming a model full time! ;)

What you can't tell in these photos is that area we were in, it was pretty much a swamp, so it was full of mosquitoes. I mean, we were being attacked by swarms the WHOLE time.













Kelli was a trooper though. She just kept posing. So I had to get proof of our best investment that day. Not that it did us very much good.

Thank you Bug Spray!
As you can see, it was time for an outfit change. Kelli looks really amazing in her cowboy hat.

I love this one. It's surely a very close second in the favorites department.

You know, just enjoying her time in the woods! :)

So we had so much fun during this shoot, that we knew we had to do another. It was pretty much necessary. Plus, I think we created a modeling monster with Kelli. She's sort of addicted now! Lol. Which is good for us, she's amazing to work with.

Again with the brainstorming. I came up with the amazing idea to use the County Fair that just so happened to be opening. So what did we do? We made the shoot for just a few days later! We had a lot of fun with this one. People everywhere were stopping and staring. Poor Kelli! Lol. Everyone was wondering what on earth we were doing there walking around with all this equipment, photographing this gorgeous girl in High Heels! Lol.

Here's a good example of her amazing laugh. Which she does, often!

Who doesn't love Skee Ball? You find me someone... I dare ya! ;)

During this one, we're standing there for a bit, and the wind starts blowing. "Ugh, stupid wind" Kelli proclaims as she brushes her hair out of her face. "No, this is good wind, sexy wind" I replied.
"Sexy Wind?" Kelli looked at me like I was crazy, and we all laughed. Later when looking at the final images, she said "You were right, it was sexy wind!" And now it's a running joke between us!

These ones were my favorite from the fair shoot. Her outfit and that circus prop (believe it or not, it's a garbage can! hehe) went perfectly together.

This was my favorite of the fair shoot! Gorgeous!

Taking advantage of the new display the fair just installed it this year! 

Who doesn't love a carousel?

Stunning!

Cotton Candy Anyone?

We had a lot of fun for sure. We got the pleasure of working with Kelli and her boyfriend Nate a little more recently, and he's just as wonderful to work with. You can see those photos over on the Marry Me blog. Check them out, they're wonderful!

Until Next Time-
