lauren & tim: engaged!

Lauren and Tim are great friends from GVSU. I met Tim freshman year when we lived in the best dorm ever (along with a pretty awesome group of kids!) and attended Campus Ministry together. Not too long after that, I met Lauren through Campus Ministry as well. Sooner or later, these two crazy kids started dating and now... they are getting married! Yay!

I was honored when they invited me to be apart of their special day. But of course, we needed engagement pics first! The shoot started at Aman Park, just outside Grand Rapids and then we drove out to Holland to the pier on Lake Macatawa where Tim proposed just a couple months ago. Even though we braved the zero degree weather and blizzard-like conditions for this shoot, I had a blast!

Lauren & Tim, it's been a joy to watch two friends fall in love and journey together. I can't wait for your wedding in August!

This shot below may or may not have been Tim's idea. Don't tell him I told you!
This was THE ring shot that Lauren wanted. So great! :)
See the swans?? Perfect timing!
Helllllloooo, eyes! :)Finishing up the shoot... we were sufficiently cold and sufficiently snow-covered! :) Rachel (assistant extraordinaire!), Tim & Lauren... Yay, friends!

Jenn, These are AMAZING! Great job! So is this the snowfall you were waiting on back in the day? Totally worth it!

These are really great photos. I just looked at your blog, and you take some really amazing photographs. I noticed you do engagement photos, I just shot my first engagement session today. The photos are on my blog if you're interested in checking them out. Great work, I'm looking forward to seeing more of you images.

What kind of camera and lenses do you shoot with?
