James + Emily’s Engagement Session

August 20, 2008

What a whirlwind the weekend of 08.08.08 was! Whew! I started off that friday at a wedding in Navarre, went down to Jordan + Cody’s wedding in Columbus on Saturday (with a quick stop for lunch with my wonderful sister and brother in law) and rounded out the weekend with a stop at Mohican State Park on my way home for an engagement session with James and Emily whom had just booked with me that week!

I picked Mohican because every time I am on my way home I always want to stop there but never seem to have the time or the motivation to do so (I seem to do most of my traveling to Columbus and back in one day). I have a love for covered bridges and forests so I was really excited when they agreed. Turns out that Emily (whom is originally from Millersburg but now resides near Chicago) hiked here a lot as a child so it has added sentimental value!

We started off at the covered bridge (which is not rustic and is a newly built one but still pretty!) and then went over for a few shots at the gorge overlook. It was a super sunny day with not a cloud in the sky so we’re going to go back for some yummy light shooting in the fall when they come back to the area again. I have my sights set on the fire tower and luckily they are down with that idea as well. They will be getting married on May 30th of next year so you’ll see them another time before they get married!!
