Pleasant Valley Park Engagement Session

I met Cynthia and Ben at Pleasant Valley Park, in Cedarburg, for their engagement session. These two are going to have a destination wedding, but wanted an engagement session in their home state, so we planned on carefree natural setting. The sky was overcast and threatened rain, but we pushed on with the photo shoot. As we wandered further into the park it became apparent that mother nature wasn’t going to let us off the hook, but we continued since I had a fresh roll of black and white film that I had to finish! The sky had turned black at this point, and we were just hoping to stay dry just long enough, when I discovered the little trail…and those super moody images are my favorite shots. Sometimes it’s the lack of light that gives us the biggest opportunities to create.
