Patrick M Scanlan Photography

Had my first surprise engagement shoot over the weekend. I’ve always wanted to do one so this was so much fun and exciting. I’ll tell you, NOTHING is as stressful as getting stuck in traffic for an occasion like this but we pulled it off and more importantly she said YES!!! So glad I could be there for the big moment. Congratulations to all that coordinated the event and Congratulations to the happy couple!!!

This picture was so cute but not everyone’s eyes were open for it. I was able to take a similar picture where their eyes were open and transfer it over to this one. The technique in photoshop is simply called an eye swap and can be common among photographers trying to get the perfect shot! Can you tell? If you ever wonder where your money goes when booking a photographer now you know! How many people would be interested in a before and after example?

These guys were such troopers. Not long into our photo shoot it started pouring rain!! Just goes to show you that you can’t control everything and if you roll with the punches beautiful work comes out. These two were adorable.

One of my favorite families. These kids are so wild with wiggles and golden hearts. My favorite part of repeat clients is seeing how everyone changes and grows from shoot to shoot.
Thanks to all who put their trust in me to capture the love of their family.

Happy Halloween!!! 🎃👻🎃🍂🍃🍂🍁🍁
