Will you be my Valentine?



This month I got the opportunity to do a shoot with a close friend Rose and her boyfriend, Ryan. He had contacted me a few weeks prior, wanting to plan something special for Valentine's Day. After talking about it, we decided to meet at Owen Memorial Rose Garden to capture some photos of them together. We wanted it to be really simple, just the two of them being themselves.


           





They were great sports about the gloomy weather and we had a really good time exploring the gardens. Our favorite discovery of the day was a line of plants that had been carefully shaped into hearts along the back fence. What a great spot for a Valentine's photo!




As we were saying our goodbyes, I decided to snap this last minute shot in the rear view mirror. Just then, it began to rain. For the rest of the day it rained and hailed heavily. What good luck that we finished when we did! Also, I'd like to give a big thanks to Rose and Ryan for being such great models.
