Kowalski Couple

I have worked with this gorgeous gal before for her boudoir shoot so I was excited when she wanted to book a couples shoot because I remembered how gorgeous she was. They make a beautiful couple and it was fun working with them. Although I know the husband was super uncomfortable and wasn't thrilled about taking pics [what guy is?], he made the best of it and had Nikki and I cracking up half the session. Here are some of my favorites from their "gloomy day" session. [I added some FAKE sun flare in their for the wife since she loved it, but we had gloomy skies!] I prefer the real sun flare but when we don't get it and the client wants it, we will make it happen! lol

 There is a totally valid reason why she is cracking up here ;)

Steven & Melissa | Re-kindled

They dated 4 1/2 years in high school. They graduated and decided to take separate paths. She left for college, he left to join the military. A few years later they realized they couldn't live without each other so she just flew to NC this last weekend to re-meet up with him and re-kindle what they knew they couldn't live without and I got to photograph it. <3
