Memphis adventures...

Three guesses as to where these pictures were taken. We did this shoot in Memphis while we were in town for Easter. This is my friend, Daniel, and his gorgeous wife-to-be, Amy. For weeks, I had all my Memphis peeps on the scene to try to come up with a cool place for their engagement shoot and a couple of other family shoots that day. I suggested downtown for the Memphis-y scene but Amy really wanted green and pretty. The gardens apparently charge some mega-photographer fees and it seems that everyone in Memphis has the same suggestion for pictures: the local cemetary. (I have to admit that this is also the same spot that Corey and I had our engagement pictures made.) It is, apparently, the place to be if you're either a) dead or b) having your pictures made in Memphis on a Saturday morning. We found a field way in the back (apparently, they are leaving some room to grow into...) as well as some other random spots that actually turned out to be awesome places for pictures. I have to say it was our first photo shoot behind a dumpster in the back of a funeral home but Amy and Daniel were great sports about it all. Thanks for trusting us, guys!

Love these great pictures of Daniel and Amy! We'd never have known the location of the shots if you hadn't told us--and you made the day look a lot spring-i-er than it was--it was cold! What a beautiful couple they are--great job capturing how much they clearly love each other!
