Last Sunday, Ryan and I met up with Chris and Lauren in Old Town Scottsdale to do their engagement session.  They are both SUCH naturals – not to mention being ridiculously good looking :-)  After about an hour with them, we felt like we’d all known each other for years!  We had SO much fun!  Their personalities and chemistry really shine through the photos and I doubt that we could be any happier with the way they turned out.  SEROUSLY can’t wait to shoot their wedding in March!!!  The only sad moment of the day was when they told us that they’re going to be moving to San Francisco after the wedding . . . tear :-(

Ok, enough talk – on to the photos! You know it’s going be a good day when you get this kind of a shot within the first 5 minutes!

Lovin’ the hint of reflection in this one . . .

You see what we mean?  TONS of personality!  Too adorable to choose just one :-)

So apparently between Saturday and Sunday it became winter.  It was cold and overcast the whole afternoon (which made for AMAZING light by the way), but Lauren was in this incredibly cute dress and FREEZING.  She seriously had goosebumps the entire shoot!  What a trooper though – just gave her one more reason to snuggle up with Chris :-)

Can you say “adorable”?

One word for this next one: HOT!  They look like a couple of fashion models in one of those magazine ads where you really have no idea what the ad is for except that there are hot models in it.

This may be my favorite shot of the whole day just because it was completely unprompted by us!  We basically said, “Hey! Let’s shoot in front of that awesome red wall!” and this was what they came up with – hilarious!

We may have had a tiny bit of influence on this one . . .

Things did get a little steamy . . . which we absolutely encourage by the way!

Then it was time to get a little more comfy . . .

And a LOT more silly!

So much cuteness :-)

This image is really supposed to be about the ring, but even in the background, these two steal the show!

At the very end of the shoot the sun was setting, but it peaked out from behind the clouds a tiny bit.  We told them that we’d have to act fast to get some sun in and Lauren automatically grabbed Chris and was ready to go with a kiss shot!  LOVE the surprised expression on his face!

To  Chris & Lauren: we cannot say enough how much fun we had hanging out with you guys!  Can’t wait to watch you guys make it official :-)  And don’t you think for a minute we’re not going to be showing up on your door step in San Francisco with cameras in hand!
