Jennifer and Tim’s Engagement Portraits
December 19th, 2008
Jennifer and Tim amaze us with their patience to see these, they are just such good people not to mention a great couple. High school sweethearts, they asked permission to return to school grounds for portraits, making their session particularly personal and meaningful. As music majors, we took several photos in the school auditorium as well as the stairwells and hallways. I found myself seeing almost everything in black and white, a medium tied to memory and nostalgia.
The sun peaked through the clouds as we left school grounds for historic Petersburg. The old train station and surrounding warehouses made a great industrial setting. While the Christmas decor seemed a bit premature to Sam and I in mid-November, it was perfectly appropriate for Jennifer and Tim who got engaged last Christmas. Its like they ordered it all up – perfect weather, Christmas decorations, the works!
We know their wedding will be just as awesome, here’s a slideshow with our favorites and if you would like to see their online gallery, click here. We are definitely looking forward to next May…
We’ll pick up with album posts and tourists pics next year so stay tuned. Here’s to a rockin’ 2008 and an even better 2009. Merry Christmas and Happy New Year, everybody!

Sam and Mel, Wow! Thank you so much! When Jen and Tim mentioned the portraits would be taken at Appomattox and Old Town, Petersburg, I thought it was a perfect setting! To see them pictured now in a place where their story began couldn’t be more special. You captured the essence of who they are as a couple. I can’t wait for you to capture even more memories as we continue the story next May. I’m so glad we found you. You guys are terrific!

You guys rock! These are absolutely beautiful. We could not be happier, this far exceeds our expectations. We’re showing them off to everyone we know and have only heard very good things, we can’t wait until Christmas to show them to our families. Thank you both so very much. Can’t wait until May…
Love,
Jen and Tim
