Leslie & Ike :: 10 Years Later

Months ago, Leslie and I began plotting our ideas for her 10th anniversary photo session. Leslie and Ike have been working on changing their lifestyle habits over the past year, and they've both lost a good amount of weight. So much so, that they look even better TODAY than they did TEN years ago! Incredible transformations. Including Leslie being able to fit into her wedding gown!
The weather desperately wanted to rain on our parade, but we refused to let it stop our plans. We made a detour to the church where they originally got married on May 26, 2001 and re-enacted their wedding portraits. Then we headed into down and hung out around West Hall of VSU. Which, coincidentally is where they met. (cues the "awwwww"s now)
I had SO much fun during our session together. Maybe it's because they're comfortable in front of my camera or maybe it's because they're so comfortable with one another. But I swear this was the easiest wedding-ish shoot I've ever done. It's probably because there weren't family members around taking pictures next to me, or a reception we needed to go to after pictures. :) It was difficult narrowing down my favorites. But I think I got them here. Enjoy! If there's anyone else out there who wants to do a session like this, I'm looking forward to you contacting me. It was truly a blast!!
