Engagement Shooting

Yesterday I went to East Lansing with Lindsey and Aaron. We did a kind of belated engagement shooting after they got engaged last year. They wanted to take the photos on their university’s campus where they had met. For me this was a great opportunity to try out portrait photography. That’s something I had not really done before and especially if it’s related to marriage, there is a lot of pressure. It was great, though, to do this with friends who can’t really be mad at you when things go wrong. They both did a great job and got more and more relaxed after the first few shots (and after the beer for lunch). I didn’t really have to tell them much how to pose which was was good because this really seems to be the tough part. I should really study poses more and try to look for the tiny details in them. All in all this was a fun trip and time flew by. I got to know a new small and cute city, another American university and a party location.
