Engagement: Jennifer and Jon
categories: Engagements, Photography

This colorful and sassy urban engagement session came our way recently and we couldn’t wait to share it with you! Jennifer and Jon met through a mutual friend and their blind date at Cafe Poca Cosa was just the beginning…

We love the interesting textures and colors of this engagement session. Here’s what Jennifer told us about the cool locale: We choose downtown Tucson because it reminds us of the urban area in Austin, Texas where we live today and before I left Tucson that is where I would normally hang out with friends.

Sweet alert! I asked the couple what they like best about each other; here’s what they said:

Jon: My favorite thing about Jennifer is her big heart and sweet soul

Jennifer: My favorite thing about Jon is how witty and funny he is

I am always curious about the relationship between the couple and the photographer, especially when the session goes as well as this one did. Here’s what Jennifer says about Shelley Welander of SheWe Studio: I first discovered Shelley Welander a few years ago when she did my family photos and instantly fell in love with her work. After meeting her and her husband Cam, I knew it was a great match to work with! We had a blast when shooting our engagement photos!

Congratulations Jennifer and Jon- we wish you wedded bliss!

… and many thanks to photographer Shelley Welander of SheWe Studio for sharing her gorgeous work with us!

Shelley’s Tips for a Great Engagement Session:

1. I encourage my brides-to-be to get make-up done prior to our e-session, this is a suggestion not in any way mandatory! My style of photography really captures the eyes and sometime pro make-up really enhances the shape of the eyes for black and whites.

2. I always suggest a couple of outfit changes; one more casual and the other with maybe a sexy little dress.

3. I like to shoot at a location that suits each couple’s personality; nature, urban, studio. I want my couples to feel comfortable and have FUN! Engagement sessions should be about capturing your true personalities so we play a lot!

Happy Planning from your Tucson Wedding Blog!
