Megumi & Max: Portraits

Thu. June 9, 2011   |   i do
Last month, I got an email from Megumi (Meg) while I was in England.  She mentioned that she and her husband would be in town for a few days and wanted to do some casual portraits!  I'm excited any time I get an email like this, but I was doubly excited when I found out something else about this couple--they live in Japan!
Since the Tsunami, the people of Japan have been on my mind quite a bit.  Although Meg & Max thankfully were not affected personally by the Tsunami, they know people who were and Meg has been very involved in helping with the relief effort.  

Meg & Max actually got married about three months ago, but due to circumstance didn't have a big wedding or really any photos at all!  What better way to celebrate their love than with a shoot like this one!  The original idea was going to be engagement-style photos, but Meg came across this dress and just had to have it.  Top it off with a birdcage veil and they were wedding-ready!

Max & Meg--thank you for asking me to photograph you--It was such a blast!!

Of course, it's always nice when we get a perfect day and perfect light...



Meg & Max have such a sweetness about their relationship.  Everything was very natural, not trying too hard:

It helps having a beautiful setting like this nature reserve:

You can see how much Max loves her every time he looks at her:

Which he did pretty much the whole time--I don't think I have ten photos of them looking at me--Max really only wanted to look at Meg :)

I think that's adorable:

I can see the joy in these:

And the kindness in these:

I just adore this one!

Meg--for a dress you found yesterday and just picked up on a whim--you hit a home run!

Gorgeous:

Max is no slouch himself :)  

And the magic of this location suited them perfectly:

Love love love:

Sitting in a field?  No problem!

And aren't you glad?

A quick hair & necklace change:

And some freewheeling around the field in BW:

Meg's shoes were SO awesome--I can't believe she rocked them through the wilderness!

Sunflare:

Some people just know how to relax in front of the camera--Meg does:

It makes for such beautiful, soft moments:

A flower we found at the park:

Why not?!

Last one:

Meg & Max, have a wonderful vacation, and thank you for allowing me to capture your love!
