Parking lot magic!

Welcome back to Denise and Tyler's post bridal shoot at Kinzua Bridge State Park in PA! We forgot to mention why we were shooting here. This is Tyler's hometown so it meant a lot to him and Denise that we completed their wedding story at this location. Their engagement shoot took place in Erie, PA. The wedding in Buffalo, NY and Post Bridal Session in Smethport, PA. While Tyler showed us around town he said "I know it's not the Carribean that you're used to shooting at but it's my hometown." - To us, it doesn't matter where we shoot! We try and create beautiful images at the locations that's most personal to our clients. Images are all about storytelling and we'll go wherever our clients story takes us.

After tackling the high bridge, we were just about done with the photoshoot but Neal wanted to do one last shot. We headed back toward the parking lot. In the very back corner of the lot there were giant boulders randomly laying there. We had noticed them when we first arrived and wanted to do something fun with them.

Denise had brought giant sparklers in case we wanted to use them. This was the spot! We did a test with the sparklers and it was perfect. We positioned Denise and Tyler on the rocks and stuck the sparklers in the ground behind them and lit them. Of course it started to get windy and the smoke was going in the wrong direction we needed it to be. Neal was clicking away, as I went back and forth relighting the sparklers that went out or bringing new ones in. The images were looking amazing in the camera but we really needed it to be perfect and it took a lot of patience! 

Denise and Tyler were such troopers on this one. They didn't exactly have the most comfortable place to be standing! But as soon as the wind died down for a split second we got the shot and it was well worth the effort.

Funny how we traveled all the way to shoot at the amazing Kinzua Bridge and one of the best shots was in the parking lot! :-)
