DreamTree | Photography: Anchor of Love

I am SUPER excited to share this session with you! Because of the idea for this session, I held my Beach Mini's! You can view those HERE, HERE, and HERE.

You may remember Patty and Eric from the Anchor of Love | Giveaway where couples entered their pictures for a chance to win this exact session. They were the prize winners! <3

Now, let me tell you a bit about this session...
This session was inspired by my own personal session with Clayton Austin (the use of rope). I knew I wanted to do Beach Mini's, but wasn't sure what direction I wanted to take the "main" session. I browsed on my beloved Pinterest, and surprisingly gathered few ideas. It wasn't until I visited my local Christian Book Store, that I found EXACTLY what I wanted to do. An "Anchor of Love" pendant daintily hung from the the display case, and I immediately thought of the rope Clayton used for my husband and I, but instead of a floating chair with brown rope, why not white Marine rope with an anchor, sea shells, a message in a bottle, or perhaps even a boat?? Well I did think about the other goodies I listed, but I wanted to keep focus on just the couple... nothing else that would detour the eye or the imagination. I wanted it to be clean and simple with the background of the beach as well... a backdrop that pulled the entire session together. I did, however, bring other props, but once I got there, and got everything set up, even then, it all seemed overpowering, so they're all now, somehow displayed in my half bathroom which is also nautical themed. =P

Thanks Patty and Eric for being AWESOME!!
Hope you all enjoy this session!
