Mr. Meerkat is never excited to have his picture taken. Ever. But when it involves an orchard that he loves with his sister taking the photos we were able to get him out there without too much complaint. (Plus, he knew he was getting cider and doughnuts afterwards.)
Our goal with these pictures were to get the fun photos that we didn’t get with the formal engagement shoot we did before. We are in no way a lovey-dovey, hang all over each other couple. We are more of the chase each other and see who can tackle whom first kind of couple.
We found one of the original trucks the orchard had used which fit right into my love of antique trucks and cars:
And there was a cornfield we decided to play in:
And remember the sweatshirts we found after Mr. Meerkat proposed on Mackinaw Island? I told Sister-In-Law Meerkat I wanted to have a photo of us wearing them:
Then she came up with the idea of doing a ring shot with the logo from the front of the hoodie:
And my ABSOLUTE favorite photo from the day is one that any geek would want. A photo with our Kindles:
I am so happy we were able to do two engagement photo sessions. We got some serious/romantic photos and some that were a bit more us.
Was anyone else torn between romantics photos and fun engagement photos?
So great! I LOVE the photo with your kindles! We love our kindles, too! 
They’re so awesome!
Love the Kindle picture, it’s way cuter than the iPhone one!
Haha omg that one with your Kindles is SOOOOOO CUTE! I love it!
Oh, these are all so cute. And I love all the color in the first one.
@FutureMrsLamont: We are hooked on ours! I read it every day while I walk on the treadmill.
@Mrs. Sand Dollar: Thats actually where the idea came from. I wanted to either do one with our droid phones or our Kindles. So we went with the Kindles cause we had never seen it done before.
I love the kindle shot.. I might need to bring my nook to my engagement shoot!!
love the kindle photo! And I like that you incorporated the sweatshirts, so sweet! We just had our e-session on saturday, and I can’t wait to see them!!! You’re making me jealous! haha
