it’s really hard to pin point what my favorite part of this engagement session was. perhaps it was the world’s two most adorable dogs, or steve’s dedication to knowing exactly where to look for each photo, or maybe even the fact that it was in maryland and i got to eat at my favorite restaurant in this part of the country (uncle julio’s for all you inquiring minds). whatever it was, this session was so much fun, michelle and steve were so good at having their photos taken, and the dogs are at high risk of being kidnapped by me. i really enjoyed combining their engagement and getting to interact with them and their dogs in a real life setting. it inspires me to spend some more time doing lifestyle photography.

oh, and michelle had some killer red shoes.
