Their life is all about the farm life: Kurth Valley Farms {check them out on facebook}. They live on a farm that has been passed down for many generations. Lindsay even told me an interesting {although Brandan though it was quite morbid} story about a little spot up on the hill behind their place that holds some family traditions. They have chickens, pheasants, turkeys, cows, pigs (and the most cutest batch of baby piglets you've ever seen!), and llamas.....YES, llamas! We had so much fun doing their engagement photos around the farm. Brandan is a riot! He razzed me so much about what we were doing, why I was doing it that way, did he really have to hold a pitch folk...."are you kidding me?" he said. "You're joking right. That's so dumb!" But he was such a good sport about everything we asked him to do and I have to admit that without all the crap he was giving me, the shoot wouldn't have been as much fun as it was. I mean, seriously, how can you not have fun when you're involving cows, wine, chickens, scrounging the farm for props, and the most awesome sunflare that I told Brandan would come out for me if he would just sit there and kiss his bride-to-be for me with some patience that it would happen. And it did! By far my most favorite shot. EVER.
I made Lindsay stand around the corner for this one and wouldn't tell her what we were writing on the sign. Brandan then proceded to tell me I spelled Lindsay's name wrong. Luckily I didn't believe him too much ;) This is the first time she (supposedly) is getting to see this sign and know what it actually said. Although no guarantees since if she's like me, I would have went digging in the trash later to find out what it was since I have no patience!
Hugs,
