Travis and I are very fortunate to have very talented and generous friends and family. One of these good friends is Julie O'Quinn. Even though Julie's true passion is fixing integration errors with Ariba (j/k JO), she is also an excellent photographer and was nice enough to spend some time with Travis and me (and our moral support, Alison) and take our engagement pictures!
When we first talked about engagement photos we knew we wanted to do them outside and we knew we wanted to take some campfire shots but living in Texas that was causing some issues. Dallas has had a lot of rain this year but the weekend we planned on doing the engagement photos just about every single county in driving distance had a fire ban. As luck would have it there was one tiny little county that held out. Rockwall county did not have a fire ban. Not only that, but Rockwall also has a lake. And there is a guy that I used to work work (that Julie currently works with) that lives on the lake in Rockwall county! Chris came to the rescue and allowed us to spend the evening in his back yard.
There are more photos on Facebook and a couple of my favorites that you'll only get to see at the wedding!
