Troy and Sherita stopped by the studio earlier today to drop off their wedding photography contract. They are getting married in October just south of Cleveland. Little did they know I had little surprise planned. The photo studio was all setup to grab a couple quick portraits of each of them. I didn’t know how they would be dressed or what kind of mood they would be in after a day of wedding planning. Needless to say, the portraits could not have gone better. They were in a fantastic mood and I was ready to roll. Here are the results.

For Troy it was an edgy portrait shot on a white background. I said “anyone ever tell say you look like Biggie”? Troy just laughed and I snapped a couple quick shots.

For Sherita, I went a little softer with the lighting and setup to create a portrait that really brings out her beauty. Meanwhile, Troy is in the background making funny faces at her. I think I grabbed a portrait just before she burst out in laughter.

I love my wedding clients and I certainly love giving them little surprises. To say the least, I am looking forward to their wedding later this year and the engagement photos in the spring. Imagine a Cleveland engagement in spring and a wedding in October. It really should be gorgeous!
