Engagement Pictures Arrive

Over the Memorial Day weekend, Kyle and Jenni made the trip from Carlinville to enjoy time back in Quincy. 

They brought the CD of over 100 shots from their Engagement Photo Shoot.  There are lots of great pictures, taken by Josh Richmiller’s girlfriend, Maria Witt.  I think she has lots of potential to move into professional photography. Of course, I’m a bit partial to the subjects!

Maria travelled to Carlinville to do the shoot and they went to many different locations to take the pictures, including in front of the courthouse where Kyle spends much of his time.  This courthouse which dates back to 1867 was recently named one of the ‘150 Great Places in Illinois’ taking its place alongside great structures such as the Frank Lloyd Wright home in Oak Park and the Illinois State Capitol Building.

They also had some photos taken in the town square at the gazebo, a beautiful centerpiece to this quaint little Midwest town, that is on the National Historic Register.

 

 

 

 

 

 

They put on some old duds and had some more photos taken at a nearby farm.417 copy_edited-1 414 copy_edited-1

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

They stopped at the old Macoupin Station.

Then they finished the shoot at the lake at Beaver Dam State Park where we stay when we visit them in Carlinville.

Thanks, Maria, for taking the time to do the shoot in Kyle and Jenni’s new hometown.  We are really happy to have these lovely pictures as well as the lovely lady who is about to become part of our family!!
