Abby & John Austin - Cotton Field Engagement Session

It's not often I get to shoot in a cotton field, and it's even less often that I get to shoot the cotton field with the farmer in it! Actually, never. I'd never done that...

Until last week when I met Abby and John Austin at the Fincher family farmland. :) John Austin's family has farmed for generations, and he is proudly carrying on the tradition. I thought it was a great idea when Abby mentioned photos in the cotton, because cotton fields are so pretty this time of year and because the land is a special part of their lives.

I loved getting to know these two while we were shooting. I was trying hard to carry on a conversation while climbing over rows of cotton. I don't know how they were perfectly composed, because I was sweating and panting like I'd just run a few miles. Anyway, here are some of my favorite images from their session the other night. I'm so excited to shoot their wedding next summer!

After we shot quite a bit in the field, we headed over to John Austin's home and stopped along the way to get photos with some farm equipment.

Wasn't sure this was going to work, but I think it's adorable!

I don't think I took a single bad picture of these two. They are just THAT cute! Hope you guys had as much fun as I did :)
