Brian and I have been given the incredible honor of shooting Anne and Preston’s Colorado wedding in 2010.  For the engagement shoot, Anne asked if I’d come to Virginia and do the shoot at her old horse ranch.  The pastoral scenery of rolling green hills was medicine to the soul.

Horses have been a BIG part of Anne’s life.  So it made perfect sense to capture this setting for her.

We decided to schedule the shoot for the Fall, and wow, the East Coast puts out a beautiful Fall.

Everywhere you look, the scenery feels timeless.  Even the simplest of moments, a man with his dog…felt like it was a piece of literature I’d read and now it was living and breathing—right in front of me.

One of my favorite moments is when one of the horses spontaneously decided to join the photo shoot.  Anne and Preston didn’t even know the horse had leaned down so far!  It was the cutest thing!

But the animal with the MOST camera-ease was their amazing dog, Tennyson.   This is by far one of my favorite images.  It was the complete, unexpected shot.

A big thank you and hug to Anne and Preston for inviting me to one of the most beautiful places on earth.  It was wonderful to have that time with you both.  Brian and I can’t wait for your wedding this coming year.  It’s going to be amazing!

Much love,

Me Ra

p.s. I also have to thank Brittany for referring Anne to us.  I love you girl!  I can’t wait to see you in January and give Hudson the biggest hug and kiss!
