King Ranch : Southern Lancaster County Engagement Shoot
When i first spoke to Kim she very modestly explained to me how they have this place the two of them
would visit for their dates sometimes -would i mind shooting there? I love new places and she said it was a ranch.
King Ranch. I love ranches. I also have a natural inclination to sprawling meadows and fences and horses.
I was excited to try a brand new location. Judy and I drove together and as we were driving through
southern Lancaster County we kept exclaiming over all the fallen tree branches. They were everywhere!
Remember that big storm that came through that put homes out of electricity for days?!!
But we were passing beautiful ranches and farms and could only hope that where we were headed would be
as beautiful. We couldn't have been more pleased. This ranch is for real.
We followed Lyle back off the main road for a few miles it seemed. Dirt road after dirt road. Trees and fences and rolling landscape as far as our eyes could see.
Did we know places like this existed? And then we spotted a castle. Would that be our spot?
Lyle's father farms some of this land. Hurray for dads with connections =)
And we fell in love.
We also thought Kim & Lyle were pretty cool.
She has this easy way about her and he loves to make her smile.
The combination was spontaneous and a blast to shoot.
How did they meet? Well =) They went to the same church all of their lives. Grew up together.
But, Lyle says, the relationship really took off when they were at a Sheetz one evening and started talking.
I love it!
And. There was so much sunshine! It bounced off the walls and played music with our lenses.
It was everywhere. Finally.
We had to include some photos with the F150. The mode of transportation that faithfully brings them back to this lovely place time after time.
We did have to sacrifice a few spots just because it was too muddy to get to them. It's ok though, cause we were liking all the other places just fine!
Just too cute for words. Love the outfits. So pretty eyes.
Judy, Thank you for your help on this one.
Lyle & Kim- Happy Planning!
