Candy Apples and Kissing

October 20th, 2009 @ 5:26 pm by Ms Potato Chips

I can’t stop smiling at our engagement photos! We had ridiculous fun with the photographers and it didn’t take them long to post some teasers! We rode the Pirate Ship, rocked around the creaking Ferris wheel, tried our hand at some overpriced games, enjoyed fried food, beers, and candy apples, and stayed until the park closed. Our photographers are awesome and hanging with them was like spending the evening with great friends.

These are some of my favorites.

I must say, it’s nice to have photos of ourselves that don’t look like this:

n698588871_304034_7778

or this:

n649366592_372207_9625

Seriously, what is wrong with us?? I have no idea.

Did you decide to get engagement photos taken? What did you think of the experience?

Your images look fantastic! You guys look like you were having so much fun and the amusement park setting is just great! Definitely better than the last two photos! I love the last B/W shot.

We had our session a couple weeks ago…one more week to go before we get proofs…so exciting!

LOVE your photos! I’m actually keeping my fingers TIGHTLY crossed that Hinkley will be available for my wedding next year. They are meeting with a couple tonight that has the same date as we do. I’m sooooo hoping they don’t book…cause I want them soooo much! I love their work.

Question: how have they been to work with so far?

Miss PC - have you always been blue? I coulda sworn your chip bag used to be red. :) I like the new look (assuming I’m not going crazy)!

I just wanted to tell you that you’re probably my favorite blogger right now, and I’m loving how lowkey you and your FI are keeping things. :) Thanks for being so real and genuine and sharing your experiences with us!
