Sunday evening we headed off to a field just south-west of downtown Des Moines to meet-up with some other local photographers from the area to do a fun group engagement shoot!
The other photographers present were:
Sarah & Chris Davis of Lucky Soda Photography
Joey Early of Life Art Photographs
Lance Shuey of Lance Shuey Photography
We had the pleasure of shooting Jennifer Neynes and her fiance James Doser who run Fire Lily Photography out of Ames, IA and are getting married in two months.
Sarah and Chris’s daughter Bella also tagged along for the shoot and captured some great images a well for being only six! Here is a quick shot of Joey handing over the camera:
Tanner and I thought it would be a great time to do some more nature stuff as well as try to shoot more telephoto so many of these photos are taken with our 70-200 f/2.8 or 135 mm f/2, 50 f/1.4 and 85 f/1.8 as we tend to shoot with ultra-wide glass often.
Shot of Tanner in action:
And Joey:
Bella rockn’ the D700…seriously think she out-shot us all! Watch out Iowa this girl is going places!
Chris:
Jen you are so gorgeous!
Look at Bella rock it!
From here Joey decided we should hike across the field and get some shots at the top of a great point overlooking downtown so he and Chris cleared the path.
A few more shots of Tanner snapping pics:
Tanner got a great shot of her ring. Hand made by her wonderful fiance!
Chatting for a bit after the shoot.
Some fun shots of Bella! She is sure used to having her picture taken! What a cutie!
Tanner had never even HELD a film camera so Joey volunteered to let him try it out. Here is a shot of Tanner’s first ever film experience. Please don’t get addicted we can’t afford film! 😛
A big thanks to Sarah and Chris again for putting this all together you two are absolutely wonderful and to Jen and James for being such great sports! She hiked through a muddy field in heels with us for a good hour! That is skill.
If your a local photographer in the Des Moines area feel free to join us in monthly meetings (usually 2nd or 3rd Monday of the month) by hitting up the Des Moines Area Photographers Monthly Meetup on Facebook for more info!
