I thought that shooting in La Placita in downtown Tucson would be too cliche. But you get a couple like Erin and Dan to unleash, be real, enjoy each other, share a few inside jokes, laugh, trip, embarass themselves gloriously so–and you could stick ‘em in front of cardboard boxes and still have a spread worth a million bucks. Oh the color!! My gosh, these two burst with such a raw, goofy delight in each other–my face hurts from smiling. | lkm

(above) check out their vert! they nailed the ‘jump’ on the first try. standing ovation please. 
that pole little kiss moment there was purely spontaneous. Dan–you’re so suave.
erin’s grin in these middle-of-the-street/my-photographer-is-going-to-kill-us images…was favorite.
so we found this truck…kinda random. but i’m a fan. ‘hey dan, grab erin’s hand and frolick gleefully down the alley and then embrace each other in than corridor.’i can’t get over how perfectly the tones of what they were wearing meshed with the wall…so the day was mostly overcast which is often some of the BEST natural-soft-box-style lighting you can get….but I was secretly a little bummed that we missed out on some of that golden flare when a session ends with a sunset-provided epic finale……. and yet…… there was a band playing in downtown that night. Just as dan and erin were getting into the car i knew i had to cease the moment. quickly. before we lost momentum. and boy did these two deliver :) 
 Dan + Erin, we love you guys. You are SUCH a treat. Lawson & I still can’t wait for our double date. Thank you for trusting me with these memories. So so blessed to be a part of this special season with you guys! | lkm
