Let me introduce you to the soon-to-be Mr. And Mrs. Brady Hale.  

Brady and Melissa have such a great chemistry.  They met on Plenty of Fish and hit it off since the first time that they talked.  They have so much in common, including their love of outdoors, their sense of humor, and their relaxed personality.  They must have known that it was meant to be, because Melissa had moved from her hometown of Nofolk down to Beaver Crossing to live with Brady after 3 months!  When you know, you just know, and these two just knew!  The following Thanksgiving he proposed to Melissa and now they are planning for a May wedding of next year in Seward.

This next photo is one of my absoulte favorites.  I just love how Brady can make Melissa smile.  ♥

Brady and Melissa love the outdoors, a passion of theirs is hunting, so we decided to incorporate that into a hunting engagement session.  I am so excited to shoot their wedding in may to incorporate some deer antlers.  I love ring shots.  One way to make it a hunting engagement session was to include the ring with shotgun shells.  Her ring is gorgeous and worked great for this style  of shoot.  Take a look:)

One of my favorite things about shooting outdoors is the lighting.  Seriously, look at how great these two look under this beautiful sun! Seriously they are in their natural element.   Gaahh!  Just love it!!♥

I love that they chose to get camo sweaters.  This fits them perfectly. Brady works on the road for a trucking company and she works at the Friend Community Healthcare System as a MedAid.  They both work so hard to get to where they are today and I am so excited for what this next year brings them!  Much happiness I am sure.

The hunt is over for these two.  I absoulty loved your hunting engagement shoot at Pionners Park.  You guys are so great and I can’t wait until May 14, 2016!
