Rosario Beach Couples Shoot // Anna & Josh - PhotoLush 2019

Rosario Beach Couples Shoot // Anna & Josh - PhotoLush 2019

This past weekend I attended PhotoLush for the third time and it was the best time yet! Not only did I get to present and lead a breakout (more on that in a coming post) but I also got to attend a breakout hosted by the wonderful Afton Lewis and Celina Meza. They hosted a joint breakout on using nature to frame your couples, at the beautiful and #SOPNW Rosario Beach, just by Deception Pass.

A few weeks ago I had an impromptu shoot with my friend Nick after a dinner with friends led to talk of him doing modeling. He was pretty pleased with the results so when he made the dramatic decision to cut off almost all his hair and shave his beard, he wanted to do another shoot with his new look. Who was I to say no?

I've known Michelle for just under six year and Jesse just over two, and I don't know that I've ever known two people more obviously meant to be together. So when they told me they were getting married my first response was "well, duh" and then "when and where cos I'm coming to shoot it for you".

A few weeks ago my friend Nick was at dinner with a group of his friends. Somehow the talk turned to people telling Nick he needed to try out modelling. Nick thought maybe this might not be a bad idea. Our mutual friend Jesse sent him my way. We shot some pictures. Here are the results.

Remember The Hawkins from the photoshoot a couple weeks ago? Well those babies are no longer in their Mummy’s tummy anymore! Born a couple weeks early (without complications) they are almost finished cooking and ready to be discharged from the hospital! I’m so excited to watch my friends transform from a couple to a family. Plus the babies make for great models for all my crazy photo ideas!

Is there any better way to end the weekend than with a beautiful sunny evening capturing memories with good friends? That's exactly what I did a couple weekends ago with Jesse and Angela who were expecting twins. The babes have since arrived and are healthy and growing strong!
