Caitlin and Kerry's E-Session on August 3rd

We tried desperately to reschedule but between vacations and back to school plans, we were destined to shoot during the highest temperatures of the summer so far. Caitlin and Kerry barely broke a sweat and we had so much fun on their shoot that it hardly seemed to matter. I brought a cooler with drinks, C&K brought a change of clothes, and we all managed to stay comfortable and creative despite the weather.

For one thing, C&K chose a really fun location to build an engagement session around. Both Kerry and Caitlin's father worked together to build the treehouse in the recently opened Children's Garden at Lewis Ginter Botanical Gardens, which is how the couple met. This is the treehouse in the background:


Because it was so warm, we had the place all to ourselves. While we took a lot of great shots within the gardens, some of my favorite shots were taken inside the treehouse itself:





At the foot of the Children's Garden is a "hand garden" dedicated to those who had a hand in the making of the center (in terms of donations, we assume). We thought it would be appropriate to get Caitlin and Kerry's hands in there since Kerry literally had a hand in creating it. It was a lucky break that Kerry was wearing that blue shirt!

We chose Idlewild's "Live in a Hiding Place" for the slideshow tune since it made us think of playing hide and go seek and seemed to fit a playful shoot.

We congratulate Caitlin and Kerry on their engagement and look forward to their wedding on May 26th of next year, we're already looking forward to it.
