{Whitney + Aaron} Engagement

On Sunday afternoon I had a great time with Whitney and Aaron, one of my 2009 couples.  We spent a bunch of time together at Pullen Park as it’s one of their favorite places and I enjoyed the opportunity to do some new things I haven’t done in a while.  Whitney and I chatted a while before their session and I told her a few ideas I had so it was fun when everything comes together.

We started on the carousel which was fun (but it’s seriously the longest carousel I’ve ever been on in my life)!

Then we walked around the lake…

Whitney has these amazing eyes that just see right through you…

I love this next shot.  And I realize some people may not get it but for me, it was all about trying something new and stepping out of my comfort zone.  For those not familiar with Pullen Park, the carousel has wire mesh wrapped around the entire outside of it (presumably a safety thing) so I was standing on the outside and I was shooting with an 85mm lens which fortunately if I had it _just_ right would fit perfectly without getting any of the mesh in the frame.
