Abandoned Factory Engagement Session



Last Saturday we had an engagement session with Becky and Kaleb at Chimney Rock. Prior to the session we had a firm idea of the kind of imagery we wanted to walk away with. I say "had" because we were only one location away from finding inspiration for a completely different set of images. One of the qualities we love about photography is it's flexibility to capture new ideas and inspirations so easily.

The day before their Chimney Rock engagement session, Becky and Kaleb found this old abandoned sugar plant. I don't know if we could have found a more fun location to shoot at this day. There were so many options for location and lighting. Also, because Kaleb is a designer, we all ended up taking some images for textures and backgrounds for future designs and images.
