Esther & Jason’s Playful E-Session at the Red Deer River

The morning I met with Esther and Jason was warm and a little bit sprinkly.  As a train enthusiast, Jason had a quiet area picked out to take photos near the tracks and lucky for us, a train came by!  We were ready for it.

These two have been together for many years and have decided that next year they’d like to celebrate their relationship with an official wedding ceremony.  They’re completely comfortable together and Jason still keeps Esther laughing constantly.  Jason had proposed in their shared favourite place – the Christmas tree last winter.  The image I get of these two is a cozy life where they find great joy in the little things.  They love deeply, as evidenced by the pendant you can see Jason wearing throughout the session.  Their sweet pup, Patience, had passed away more recently at the age of twelve years.  Jason had a paw shaped pendant made to keep her with him always, so we made a point of photographing it during the session with Esther’s engagement ring.  It was such a lovely way to remember her.

I’m very much looking forward to spending the day with these two next year.  Until then!
