erika & mark

 love it when an idea takes on a life of its own. in fact, i wish it was that way all the time.

i have always wanted to do a shoot at this tree. You know the tree.

erika & mark met me there around 6pm under mostly sunny skies and Simpson's clouds. 

 love me some Simpson's clouds.

Sunset was set for about 8.30pm.

Turns out that behind this tree was long green grass, thick brown mud and 360 degrees of awesome.

i had planned on shooting w a few strobes but the sky was great, the sun was getting lower and erika & mark had no problem w treking through mud and leaping small brooks for a few shots.

so we grabbed one camera, a few lenses and left the rest behind.

i'd love to take themback here for the wedding shots but we've got big plans for Truro.
