That describes the time I had tonight and the view from atop Mt. Bonnell in Austin. We were SO lucky to have such perfect weather and a perfect sunset glow tonight. But the glow from this couple definitely made for an outstanding session!
Speaking of wind (S & F, you can start giggling now), you guys would NOT believe what we went through trying to set up this elaborate tea light scene at sunset tonight. Duh, Michele. You’re on top of a mountain…there just *might* be a slight breeze. I kid you not, we had about 30+ little tea lights, all three of us frantically trying to light them (we have the burns to prove it). We had about a handful left to light and *poof!* along comes a breeze that blows out every single one of those puppies! We tried and tried and tried…finally, we threw out the rest in favor of one. Turns out, one candle can be *very* romantical:

Wow! I was just at Mount Bonnell like 2 days ago. I asked myself while I was there “I wonder if Michelle has ever done a shoot here?” And sure enough…
Michelle, these are stunning as usual. Actually they are fantastic. Well… they are more than that but we don’t have any greater words in the English dictionary!
