Judd and Allyson Engagement

Last week I met up with Judd and Allyson out in Virgil N.Y for their engagement session, it was also the first time I met the groom. I really love engagement sessions and encourage all of my couples to do them because it lets them get comfortable around the camera before their big day. It was a beautiful Sunday with the sun shining and not a dark cloud in the sky, but once I started driving to the location everything quickly changed. I'm just extremely glad it wasn't raining even though I do have a pinterest inspired rain jacket for my camera. We did a few shots at Hope Lake Park and then drove over to their farm and home where we found some amazing hay barrels and the peaceful hammock as well as a creek and tractor.I really love country inspired shoots, it must be the upstate new yorker that's in me. I cant wait to photograph their wedding this June!
