Two dear people.

]]> http://blog.benblood.com/2011/10/06/kristen-and-keaton/feed/ 6 Laura and Allen http://blog.benblood.com/2011/08/16/laura-and-allen/ http://blog.benblood.com/2011/08/16/laura-and-allen/#comments Wed, 17 Aug 2011 02:58:51 +0000 ben blood http://blog.benblood.com/?p=3765

Olympic Peninsula, Washington State.
How fortunate I am to live nearby these places.

-

Laura and Allen invited me to join them on an adventure along the coast,
just west the Olympic Mountains. It’s about a three hour drive from Seattle
to the coast and I decided to take the scenic route (I got lost).

Laura and Allen were so gracious when I arrived after dark, too late to take photos.
They had dinner prepared for me and a bed in their cabin for me to sleep. We talked
until early morning, then woke up at dawn and there was a blanket of fog that made
everything surreal. Sometimes our troubles are blessings in disguise.

-

Allen proposed to Laura on their trip two days before we took these photos!
Laura is a photographer living in LA. Check her stuff out!

These two are so precious. Michele is a good friend from Spokane, WA
and I can’t tell you how many clients she has referred to me. This was the
first day that I met Jonathan. Can you tell how happy they are? I was so
bummed that I couldn’t shoot their wedding. Kristen Marie has their wedding
photos and hopefully she will share :)

It makes me so happy that these two are engaged. Karli is a friend / artist / musician
out of Spokane’s superb music community and to complement that is Caleb, a pure audio genius.
Caleb plays drums and Karli sings and they make great music (Karli Fairbanks).
These two are very humble and giving and I hope to see them more often.

*Karli is actually one of the handful of people who has been a huge
advocate of my work since I became a photographer and has referred
many couples who I have worked with. Thanks Karli!

in a large field – who would have thought there would be a deep
hole filled with mud in the middle of a field?
I really like this couple.
