Meet Karen and Tyler.

They came down to Richmond from DC one afternoon recently to meet up and discuss some final details before their wedding day, and it was so nice to finally meet them in person after communicating via email for so long!

I don't always get to shoot my couples engagement photos, for various reasons, and so I don't always get the opportunity to meet them in person before the big day. Especially when they are from out of town. So it's always great when it works out to meet up and get to know each other a little.

These two are just the cutest.
I loved hearing their story in person, getting to see a photo of Karen's dress (we made Tyler go to the bathroom so he wouldn't hear about it), discussing recent Beyonce music videos (none of which I've ever seen... I know, Karen, I still need to... Send me that link!) getting to see how they interact with one another and of course snapping a few photos on a walk around The Fan.
Oh how I love what I get to do for a living.

So excited to shoot their wedding in DC this weekend!
Keep an eye out on the Facebook page for some photo previews.
