FALL IS HERE!! I’ve been waiting for this all summer. Cooler weather, cozy sweaters, colorful leaves, pumpkins everywhere, life is wonderful. What else comes with fall? Well, fall festivals of course! I’ve been wanting to photograph a couple at a festival for quite some time now, and I was so pumped to go with Cassie and Drew. We got there a little early and we tried taking some photos around the carnival games, but being the only few people there, all the carnival workers were harassing us to play their games a little bit too much. We decided to take a break and grab a beer at a local bar to let the festival pick up a little bit.
Once we went back outside, there were plenty more people around, which made it much easier to do our thing! Sounds a little backwards, doesn’t it? In this situation, it helped a lot. It’s much easier to be all cute and cuddly with a bunch of people around not paying attention, than it is with everyone staring at you and harassing you for your money! (Side note: I’ve never experienced that at festivals in MN, I literally had only seen it in movies, and it made me quite uncomfortable.)
Despite the struggles we faced, I got some pretty incredible images of Cassie & Drew! They are so perfect together, and having a carnival as a backdrop provided plenty of fun opportunities for photos. If only we weren’t too tall (aka adult) to go on the rides! Check out this awesome session and get in touch with me if you’d also love a fun fall lifestyle session! There’s corn mazes, pumpkin patches, apple orchards, the changing leaves, cozy coffee shops, I want to photograph it all!
