Ho. Ly. Crap.

First, I meet the couple of my dreams (not in a weird Ménage à trois way; just in the ‘ideal client’ way), THEN they agree to let me live out one of my dream engagement sessions I’ve been dying to shoot forever. Since Nicole and Riley live somewhere in the cities and I’m in Fergus Falls, we decided to meet in the middle- at Quarry Park Nature Preserve in Waite Park, Minnesota. It’s actually where Riley went to college and I haven’t shot there in years, so I was excited to check out the new swimming area- especially since the original swimming area drops to a depth of 116 feet; I was a littttttle nervous about getting in the water with my camera in that quarry.

We made sure to take plenty ‘clothes on’ photos so their parents and grandparents wouldn’t have to sign a guest book with Nicole’s booty all over it at the wedding, but DAMN if those swimming photos didn’t turn out to be everything I’d hoped for!
