Days Like This...: Engagement Pictures

What a glorious and fun-filled day this was! After my stressful journey for finding the perfect outfits, Brandon getting contagiously ill just days before, leaving at 5am on Saturday to drive to Springfield, MO before our 12:30 appointment, and Brandon forgetting his pants, we were relaxed and carefree during our session.

Now to brag about our photographer. Katie Day is a college friend of Brandon. They did comedy improv and SOAR (MSU Summer Orientation) together and have a long friendship history. When we got engaged I contacted her about being our wedding photographer, but she recently just became a mommy for the second time (little boy born 12-12-12 --how cool!), putting her on maternity leave. Which led us to find another photographer, who I also love and can't wait to use, but Katie offered to do an ale cart engagement session. I couldn't pass that up. Not only would a good friend of Brandon's get to take our pictures, but we would get to take them in Springfield, where we both went to college, met, and began our relationship.

She has the best personality, even being eight months pregnant she walked us all over downtown and kept us laughing the whole time.

Also, when I asked her what she thought of a paint war, I got the best response:

LET'S DO IT!

I knew I didn't want to have a set of normal engagement pictures and doing the color run this past summer, a paint war seemed like the way to make memories.

Here are some of our favorites (out of over 100 pictures taken, this was tough!)
