Engagement Portraits: Jada & Jon

Jada and Jon were another of my couples to choose to do their engagement session in the fall, the most wonderful season in Texas. I went to high school with both of them, and hung out with Jada a fair bit in middle school. It's exciting seeing all my hometown buddies getting engaged - I was a bit ahead of the curve when I got married in 2009.

We romped around on the train tracks, but Jada and Jon currently hold the title for Most Awesome Clients Ever because they arranged with a local pilot to let us use his cherry red airplane for part of our session. So. Awesome. They didn't even know the guy. They just cold called his house a week or so before the shoot and begged and pleaded. I think there might have been baked goods involved. Did I mention that they're awesome? Because, wow.

They've now outdone themselves in an even bigger and better way in the Awesome category, but more on that in a minute.

Airplane!

I'm in love with Jada's tattoos. Makes me want to expand on my own. Mom and Dad, you never read this. Never happened.

There have been a few changes in plans along the way in their wedding planning process, for which Jada is always adorably apologetic. First 'twas going to be a ginormous wedding this coming Fall, but she decided a big wedding was not what she wanted after all. Next was a plan for a Spring wedding with just their very nearest and dearest at a historic courthouse or somewhere equally interesting locally. And now, a Spring wedding is still in the works, but it has been moved to SCOTLAND and I'm going with.

In case you didn't hear me,

I'm going to Scotland.

I love all my clients but they're winning the Most Awesome Clients Ever award fair and square right now. But if anyone wants to take me along to Ireland...
