Josh and Erin | Engaged!
November 6th, 2008 | Published in engagement, lifestyle | 35 Comments
I had an amazing time with Josh and Erin while I was shooting their engagement session! What a fun couple! Erin and I had talked over the phone and via e-mail for several months now but this was the first time we officially met. Being that she works in Washington (state, not D.C.), she came to town for a wedding shower and her engagement shoot. We had only one shot at it so we were definitely praying for beautiful weather…. which we got!
Check out some of my favorites and then check out the slideshow on the bottom!
Both Josh and Erin are such naturals in front of the camera. We got to a late start but they acclimated very quickly!

Beautiful couple!
I absolutely adore this shot. Love it!

Another favorite. This couple is so cool! Check out the rim light around them. Beautiful.





The photo that messes with your head. Look at it long enough and you’ll figure it out.


Thank you so much Erin and Josh for choosing me to photograph the love between you. You make an incredible couple and I can’t wait to see you guys again! Until then…

Another home run Rich! The couple looks so natural. They really did a great job of forgetting the camera was there. I love the one of them sitting under the tree (#6). It’s perfect.

Great job my friend.

Wow Rich,
Your work is stunning. These pictures have a casual elegance to them. I Adore the journalistic feel with no looking at the camera. It seems that you are looking at true love through the lens. Beautiful!
