Glenda and Eddie’s engagement session was bittersweet. A few days before our session, Eddie’s grandfather passed away. His grandfather was 95 years old. Unfortunately the funeral was schedule on the day of our session. Rather then canceling our photo shoot, Eddie and Glenda asked to move our afternoon photo shoot to early morning. Our  session had already been postponed due to rainy weather, and Eddie is currently residing in Georgia for work. With their wedding next month, Glenda and Eddie didn’t want to reschedule again. I honestly didn’t know what to expect given the circumstances, but Eddie and Glenda were just wonderful to work with. They were easygoing,  playful and happy. I truly admire both of them for participating in a photo shoot only hours before a funeral. It says a lot about their character, and the strength a comfort that they obviously find in each other. I’m so excited to work with them next month. And I know that Eddie’s grandfather will be their in spirit smiling. Here is a little sneak peak.
