This particular blog is for Mia & Kenny. I met Mia at Ivy Tech 2 summers ago while trying to get a web design class out of my way. (I loathe web design...see my current site?) We spent many lunches together getting to know each other. And even though she is going to school for web design, she is an amazing photographer. You can see her work at www.miastringer.com. When our class was over for the summer, we met at Starbucks and Mia is the one who showed me the basic ways of Lightroom. If you aren't a photographer, then maybe you don't know that Lightroom is THE program to use to edit photographs. A semester later, Mia was off to San Diego to start the next chapter of her life. Luckily I was able to have lunch with her, and her then boyfriend Kenny, at Pure in Fountain Square before she left. (Is that info relevant? Yes, this is my story.)
A few months later the two of them were engaged! Woo! Great news! And then I get the message that she wants me to take their engagement photos. Whaaa?! ME? Really?? I can't even tell you how stoked I was. But I was jumping up and down in my living room. 'Why was this such an honor?', you may be wondering. Well, Mia AND Kenny both know about photography, lighting, and posing. While this made it totally easier to shoot them, this was extremely flattering to me that they wanted me to do it while they were on a short trip back to Indy. They were traveling across the country at the time and have loads of friends who could have done it. (If this isn't true, Mia, just let me believe it. LOL!)
So...here are my favorite shots from the few short hours I spent with them on the canal and in Fountain Square.
