We just got off of a video chat with another rad couple eloping in Iceland and now we're feeling all nostalgic about our time in this magic-land with Jes and Kael so we figured it's a perfect opportunity to blast the inter-webs with round 1 of these hot, gorgeous babes and our perfect night together before their wedding day. You just can't properly do Iceland without a visit to Jokulsarlon. And we wanted to try something new this trip so we ventured all the way out to Stokksnes Beach. (What's not pictured is our late night dinner at this amazing lobster place in the tiny little town of Hofn, me (Charis) having the best wine I've ever tasted, us falling in love with these two, and then Kael and Jes fearing for their lives as they drove through wind and rain on pitch black roads for 2 hours back to their hotel. Iceland isn't for the faint of heart, people. But it definitely is for the lovers. More from their wedding day coming soonish!!
Jenn + Chad // Horseshoe Bend Engagement Session
This day was more fun than we could possibly describe. Turns out Page, AZ is a pretty dang neat place out in the middle of the desert! Jenn and Chad are the absolute coolest for being down for this adventure. When we started talking about their engagement session we threw out the idea of doing an epic destination shoot somewhere and they actually agreed!! So we started brainstorming ideas of where to go and landed on Horseshoe Bend. It far and away exceeded our expectations and is one of the most stunning places we've ever shot. We started the day off hiking through Lower Antelope Canyon, then meandered around Lake Powell, and ended with sunset at Horseshoe Bend. SO magical!
ECLIPSE // Katie + Tyler's Engagement Session During the 2017 Solar Eclipse at Silver Oaks Chateau
What a rush!! We still can't believe that we just witnessed a full solar eclipse today!! Kyle and I were talking about it a few weeks ago and planning out what to do and he had the genius idea of trying to do a photo shoot during it to capture the interesting light. Katie and Tyler just happened to be over at our house a few days later to talk through wedding plans and when we brought up the idea they jumped on board. We actually live in the totality zone but Silver Oaks Chateau said we could come hang out at their place and even get on the roof... so of course we took them up on it! We wandered around the grounds for a bit when the eclipse first started and then made our way up top for a pretty killer view. I literally don't even have words for how eerie and amazing this thing was. We had a little over two minutes of totality and it was INCREDIBLE!!!
