Nikki and Andrew - Engagement

Last weekend I had such a great time shooting an engagement session with Nikki and Andrew.  We also got a few shots with their precious 2 and 1/2 year old son, Logan.  He was so hilarious!  Tell that kid there is a deer and he will  look anywhere!  His Mimi came along and she can work magic, I guess all grandmothers can, but she seemed particularly effective:).  She took the pictures with Logan at the Old Center Church in Northport, AL.  It was originally built in 1875 and has been continuously used ever since.  it's an amazingly beautiful building.  I need a bride to get married there!  From there, Nikki, Andrew, and I went on to the Lake Nicol Spillway to shoot their engagement session.  I should really start calling them "engagement sessions and nature hikes."  The Lake Nicol Spillway is one of my favorite places on Earth and I love sharing it with other people.  We definitely got our workout in but also got some great photos along the way.  Here are a few of my favorites that I just had to share, I couldn't wait!  The entire engagement album will be available HERE soon.
