Our photographer, Reena Rose Photography , is someone FH knows from work. FH is a high school sports journalist and Reena is an award winning newspaper photojournalist as well as an award winning wedding and events photographer . Hiring her was a no-brainer for us and we couldn't be happier.

Working with her at the Cherry Blossom Festival was fun. It was a bit overcast, slightly crowded and a tad drizzly, but that didn't stop us from making the most of it. I had an air cast on for tendinitis, but we made it work and my doctor allowed me to switch to a regular shoe for the shoot. (See the "Cinderella" photo.) Reena totally encouraged us when we decided to be silly and kinda let us do our own thing with it. Normally, you don't see people pretending to bite or lick each other's faces, so she would laugh and snap away and we just kept going. My favorite photos are the ones of me sticking the blossoms in FH's ears!

    I love how silly they are! Much more personable then the standard pose-and-flash-a-smile-at-the-camera.

    I completely agree! I didn't look so flattering in some of the pre-posed ones. Hopefully this shoot will inspire other couples to get creative. Our photographer was really enjoying herself too!

    Not this year but I went last year and it was beautiful. FH and I was watching the festival on the news and I told him that the festival would’ve been perfect for the engagement shoot.
