Rachel and Luke…in the Snow

My good friends Rachel and Luke were kind enough to let me drag them out into the slushy snow this weekend for some photos! We decided the National Arboretum would look great in the snow, with the columns and such….and I think we were right! Rachel and Luke were very accommodating, as I made them trudge through snow in their brand new cowboy boots…(are they ok guys?) while I easily bounced around in my snow boots…. and I think we got some fun shots because of it.

Anyone who knows Rachel knows she has the most engaging and addictive laugh and smile….as soon as she laughs, you laugh too, even if you didn’t mean to, and trust me…Rachel laughs a LOT. Good thing she has Luke to bring out the smiles :) Check it out:

This is one of my favorites…they just look so natural and perfect together!

How about this kiss!

Luke laughs too….

You wouldn’t know this is DC, would you?

In homage to one of my favorite photographers, Jonas Peterson, (like really, check him out, he is amazing) this is a pose inspired by him:

Thanks Luke and Rachel!

    I thought I recognized those columns! What a great place to go in the winter, very peaceful. That one inspired photo…yes very Jonas-esque :) – I love it! They are all just beautiful!

    You’ve capture the pure, natural love and joy between them so perfectly. Gorgeous. I adore the red coat against the white, snowy backdrop too.

    I love this session. All the images are great! I’ve always wanted to photograph a couple in the snow!
