sarah & ryan {engaged}

from the first day i met them at a starbucks in fort collins, i knew we'd be fast friends. sarah & ryan are two of the most authentic, joyful people i've ever met. they live their life with loads of laughter and sincerity and it overflows into those around them. to say their engagement session was a breeze would be an understatement. we had so much fun running all over union station in kansas city, laughing and talking and even stopping for a coffee break halfway through. thank you guys for such a great & memorable afternoon. i can't WAIT for your wedding in october!! (and p.s., the picture above was the first frame out of my camera and it is one of my favorites ever! love these two!)

this is them, sweet & tender with each other...

s & r, could you be any cuter??

i loved this little nook we found tucked away. ryan was working his GQ here...and i think he does a mighty fine job!

loooooove.

these guys are MADLY.IN.LOVE let me tell you. i love that about them - they aren't just planning a wedding, they are planning a lifetime together.

hello, gorgeous eyes.

the heels just didn't work for the walking around between shots, so they had to go.

i loved these little aluminum tables, so we all three plopped down for a coffee break midway through our session and chatted for awhile. highly recommended. i wanted to just stay there being friends:) i think this picture is really cute of them, just hanging out.

this reminds me of a poster or something...

did i mention i love union station? it was such a great reprieve from the melting kc humidity that day. we'd planned on a park shoot but decided on this last minute and i'm soooo glad we did. beautiful!

my favorite ever. it's beautiful of them, so real and intimate.

ryan takes care of sarah. he is in tune with her, he's attentive, he loves on her constantly. this picture isn't perfect and i almost pitched it, but thought there is something really true about it.

we did brave the heat index for a few outside shots. the cloudy skies were perfect for beautiful, crisp colors...

love this! you're made for each other.

and i'll end with literally, my last frame of the day. this is them. sweet, loving and totally fun. thank you, thank you, thank you s & r for a fantastic shoot. y'all are truly beautiful, inside and out. see you in just a couple months!!
