Thanks for making us feel so good about attempting to shoot our own engagement pictures on film! We were really happy with the outcome, even the defect/out of focus ones as I said. We're looking forward to trying it again soon, but luckily we were able to narrow it down to one image for our Save The Dates. I'll be sure to share those once they arrive in the mail!
Until then, here is the second round of images! Oh, and we'll have a fun little announcement soon sort of regarding these photos! (You'll have to excuse Mike's silly expression in some of these. I always manage to catch him mid-scowl or something! He's not exactly a super fan of having his photo taken!) These were all shot on the farm where we're getting married in October!
PS; Because someone asked in the last engagement photo post, there was no Photoshop involved in these photos! These are straight from the lab. That's the magic of film! Colors and bokeh like you could only dream of with digital. And the requested clothing details are: Forever 21 cardigan, Ross dress (altered by me), Etsy brooch. Mike is wearing a Levi's shirt and Banana Republic jeans! (Mike wears a titanium "engagement" ring that I gave him last year. It's engraved with our song on the inside.)
My favourite is the one where he is kissing your check, so cute :) x
ReplyDeleteThis are so wonderful! You two are adorable together. And I meant to mention on your last engagement post, I loved the customized plugs. So perfect. I can't wait to see more of these wonderful shots!

These are amazingly lovely - you have done such a fabulous job at taking your own engagement photos! Such a great idea. Your dress is just beautiful as well!
ReplyDeleteYour photos are so beautiful. It's so adorable that Mike's engagement ring is engraved like that.
ReplyDeleteYou guys are seriously so cute together! I love the photo of you looking up at Mike, holding his hand. Beautiful!

Aw, these are so beautiful! I think my favorite is the 11th from the top, where you and Mike are standing in front of the barn and he's gazing adoringly at you. So sweet! And how fantastic that these are unphotoshopped film, too.

Awww! These are so lovely! You guys are the sweetest couple and I think I've told you before but I love your wedding location xo
ReplyDeleteThese photos came out absolutely gorgeous! I really love the one where you are holding out the flowers, but all of these are so pretty! I seriously can't believe that no photoshop was used in the photos, makes me want to start using my film slr again!

Aww, I love the pictures, they turned out really lovely. I have to say your hair is absolute perfection here, the curls are gorgeous. Your dress is really pretty, as is the location. October is a popular month it seems to get married, a few years ago we had a few friends get married within weeks of each other, I get it though since October is pretty much the best month (in my opinion).

My fav is the one where he's kissing your cheek! These are all fantastic.

Wow the results from the film look gorgeous, great power of focus there. The colours and the light are gorgeous. Such great photos to be stored in your physical memory :)
ReplyDeleteLove love love this second half. Great job!! Can't wait to see the save-the-dates.
ReplyDeleteThe one where he is kissing your cheek, the one where the flowers are in focus and your not, and the one where your looking at the camera and he is next to you looking at you! Those are awesome shots!
ReplyDeleteSweet!!! Hope to see wedding photos soon!
ReplyDeleteawwwww!! These are all so cute!! My favorite ones are the one where he is looking at the camera and you are looking at him and the one where you are looking at the camera and he is looking at you. So sweet!! I can't wait to see the ones you choose for the Save The Dates!!

Sweet photos, Kaelah. And your lace dress is beautiful!
ReplyDeleteYou did such a great job with these! I'm amazed you were able to have such a blury background but still be able to get the right focus down. I can't wait to see the others you do!
ReplyDeleteI love all of these! But the twelfth one is certainly my favorite :D
ReplyDeleteHave I told you lately how COMPLETELY excited I am for your wedding? I just know already that it's going to be my favorite blogger wedding yet <3 I'm so happy for the two of you. I feel so lucky to feel like I'm part of your story through reading your blog!
ReplyDeletejust curious, how did you guys get the focus to be so amazing through film??? i'm amazed and i need to know your secrets!
ReplyDeleteThat's so cool that you guys did your own engagement shots--and I love that you chose the wedding site, a farm, as the background. Also your hair looks beautiful. The leg ink is also lovely.
ReplyDeletecute!!!!

beautiful photos kaelah! your hair looks gorgeous.
ReplyDeleteThey look fantastic! :)
ReplyDeleteThese photos are so amazing. Just can't believe you dd them yourselves. You should be so proud!!!
ReplyDeleteKel x
Stunning photos! I too am in awe that you did them yourselves!! Amazing!!
ReplyDeleteGreat photographs! And what an adorable couple you're ^^ Congratulations! ♥ Such an original idea to engrave the engagement ring with your song! I might 'steal' it *hehe Thanks for sharing xo
ReplyDeletelovely! what great memories and you didn't have to pay a photographer!
ReplyDelete4th photo from the bottom of you with your hand in your hair is actually the prettiest picture of you EVER, so beautiful! Lovely photos all around - isn't film amazing in that way? I so want to get back into using it more but it costs so much that I try to save it for special occasions.

Absolutely beautiful, in every way. And even more amazing that they were taken with film. xoxo
ReplyDeleteYou two are too ridiculous talented. :-P Seriously, these photos are great! Even though some of them are out of focus/blurry, they just have so much character! And because you did them yourselves, they are just so, so "you"! I love it, and I can't wait to see the rest and your Save the Dates. ;)
ReplyDeletethese are great! i love the setting. my favorites are the photographs with the barn in the background. :)
ReplyDeleteself-shot is totally something i would do, too. haha
Love the cheek kiss!! Very cute. Great work on your engagement self-shot photos!
ReplyDeleteThese are all so beautiful! You two are really just so adorable together :) I think my favorite of the pictures is probably the one of him kissing you on the cheek, but, like I said, they are all beautiful!
ReplyDeleteThese are absolutely gorgeous!!

These photos are BEAUTIFUL Kaelah! You guys are such a lovely couple and you have some really sweet shots here :) It seems like you were really able to capture who you are...that's one of the benefits of doing it yourself, I guess! Great job, you two.
ReplyDeletesimply amazing. loads of love in these shots! xx

These are perfect! No photoshop? Holy wow! :) LOVE, love!
ReplyDeleteThese turned out awesome! I absolutely LOVE shooting with film, it's such a great thing. Love the 4th & 5th ones especially, the colors are stunning :)
ReplyDeleteI LOVE LOVE LOVE your hair color. I wish I could pull that vibrant of a red off. These photos look great by the way!
ReplyDeleteStunning! Perfect! Your outfits were just right!
ReplyDeleteMore beautiful photos! I really apreciate that you represented yourselves equally. So many engagement and wedding photographers put all their focus on the bride/bride-to-be and it's as if the groom/groom-to-be is a prop. You didn't do that and I'm both impressed and appreciative. I think it goes to show that you recognize your life ahead as a representation of two people.
ReplyDeleteAnd while all of the photos are fantastic, the last one with Mike's ring is my favorite.
they are REALLY lovely. and i love that you did them yourselves - my husband and i did that too! since you guys are so good and know what you want, if you haven't thought of it, consider taking some of your own wedding photos. my husband and i dressed up like 4 days before, before anyone arrived and things got crazy, went to the park we got married at, and did all of our own photos. i also took all of the shots of the groomsmen and got my hands on the camera during the wedding as much as possible. it was the best thing we did.
ReplyDeleteYou two look amazing, so beautiful!
ReplyDeleteOhmygosh, way to rock the film! :) Your blurs are amazing...I love the first ones and the one with you holding the flowers in front...gorgeous!!
ReplyDeletelove these, too! love the details <3 love the barn!! so in love with barns and barn animals. . . <3 what a lovely location.
ReplyDeleteyou guys did great on film! i use digital, but i'm not much of a "photoshopper" anyway.
these are all beautiful, Kaelah. I could only dream to take photos of myself like that.
