Arbor Hills Engagement Session: Mallory & Alan

You know what takes any engagement session from "pleasant" to "YAYSOMUCHFUN"? A ridiculously cute pug. A ridiculously cute pug with a purple bow tie. I'm more of a great dane gal myself, but few shoots have ever been more fun to capture than this one with a snuffly little pug puppy following us around. I had to restrain myself from making Neville the only star of the shoot, but thankfully Mallory and Alan are a treat for my camera too, if less furry and snuffly (which is probably for the best). It was also probably the prettiest weekend of the year at Arbor Hills Nature Preserve in Plano, so I had ample beautiful backdrops to choose from. As a bonus, I've known Mallory and her sister Morgan (who was there on pug-handling duty) since I was about 13, so we easily fell into telling bad jokes and generally having a good time. I'm glad I finally got to meet Alan, and I'm looking forward to photographing their wedding next year!


P.S. That last photo is 1000% intentionally over the top, and we had great fun with it.
