We went to a little town called Merrickville to photograph an engagement shoot. When we left our house it was pouring rain, we drove for 15 mins and Merrickville had not been touched. We were hoping we could get some "in the rain" shots but that didn't happen, it rained EVERYWHERE BUT in Merrickville. We are really happy with what we ended up getting!

C&C appreciated please!!!!

Nice set, great backdrops and loving the colors. Not sure why, but #1 doesn't feel straight, as if it was slightly vertically tilted to the right. #5 & #7 are my favorites of the set, they feel the most playful and natural. Good job!

Cannot take credit for this as an original idea, i saw it posted by another photographer that I found on google. Loved the idea and thought it would work well with this couple and all the colours.

It wasn't straight, thanks. I fixed it and it look much better!

Did you change the background color to blue for #2 or was it already a blue doorway?


I have gear. Period.

Thank you so much, the door in 2 was already that colour, it is the door to a church.

Erika, it takes practice but you can get there if you work for it and want it!
