R.C. and Stacy wanted to have their engagement pictures taken in Ellensburg, WA since it's where they met, dated, and got engaged. They currently live and work together on a ranch in Montana, but they wanted to return to their roots. When I (Melissa) asked R.C. how they met, he got a big grin on his face and said he met Stacy at the D&M Coffee drive through on his way to drive to Spokane. "I drove all the way there thinking about her eyes the whole time." Cute! Well, the rest is history and now they're planning a Montana fall wedding out at the ranch.
For part of the session we shot at the D&M coffee drive-through window where they first met:
While walking around Ellensburg looking for new portrait spots, Stacy pointed to a doorway on Pine street. I almost passed right by it because we already used this doorway once, years before at Samantha's senior session. (See her session with this same doorway HERE). But I'm glad we stopped. I love the pictures we got there!
Stacy and R.C. were seriously up for anything. We saw a yellow wall and Ross half-jokingly suggested some martial arts action. They were doing kicks and throwing punches within seconds! We ended up at Bailey's Bibliomania book store because they read a lot (.i.e. the "living in a log cabin" lifestyle they lead). Always the comedian- R.C. chose a book titled "Soulmates".
R.C. and Stacy: Thank you for making the day so awesome and we are looking forward to taking a Montana roadtrip so we can document your amazing wedding day!
