Leigh Skaggs Photography

I am a wedding and portrait photographer in Hampton Roads Virginia.

May 4, 2011

~Michelle & Ryan~ |E session| |Virginia Beach Couples Photographer|

When I met with Michelle in November of 2010, I remember she told me she was not photogenic.  I could not believe that the beautiful young Woman sitting in front of me was not going to take a good picture.  So when I met with her and her Fiance Ryan in April, I was expecting to have to give a lot of coaching and assisting.  Well, let me tell you, not only is Michelle a closet model, but Ryan is too, and they are both gorgeous!   I had a great time on our shoot starting at the Zen garden in Virginia Beach, and ending at the beach.  The only thing that I would have changed, is that we soaked Ryan’s awesome Chuck Taylor’s, when a rogue wave hit us.  🙂  Sorry about that Ryan!
