If you read / look at this blog, you might know that I like to drop some awesome all over this little nook of the internet. What you might not have been expecting was for Jessie and Niki to bring so much awesome to their session. Jessie and I have known each other a long time, in fact, we spent a good chunk of a summer in Cairo, Egypt with a few others some years ago. [Insert picture of me standing in front of the pyramids here.] (I had braces that summer, yes I was in college, so you can forget that happening for real.) While in Egypt, I became privy to the knowledge that Jessie was approached to be a model. Keeping this in mind, I was expecting this session to be great – but when Jessie and Niki both showed up dressed perfectly for this location, I just about died.

Shadow time!

These guys changed and right outside a freight train was passing. So we of course ran into the middle of the street to see what we could come up with. Here are the things I have learned about trains:

1. They make sweet-a backgrounds as some cars are pink with graffiti on them.

2. While it is difficult to get the sun positioned between cars, it can be done.

3. They bring out the butt-kicking qualities in everyone.

Jessie and Niki – I love you guys and am so excited for your wedding!
