Erin and Daniel | Northwest Arkansas Engagement Photographer

Books.  There is just something about them, isn't there?  The way that they crack down the spine when you open them up, that slightly musty smell wafting through the air, and the rustle of the pages as you flip through one for the first time.  It's intoxicating.  I've had an intense love affair with books for as long as I can remember, so when Erin said that she had a great idea involving a book store and that she thought it would be right up my alley, I think I died a little inside from happiness.

If you love books and you live in Northwest Arkansas, you've heard of the Bookshop nestled in the heart of Dickson street.  And if you haven't, you must be living under a rock.  It's a literal maze of bookshelves that beg you to become lost in them.  They invite you to curl up on the floor next to a stack of books and spend an afternoon.  It's so amazing.

Erin collects first edition children's books.  Not only that, but she and Daniel share a great love for books and visit this shop often so they thought it would be really fun to do their engagement session there.  I agree!!

I had so many favorites from this session, it was really, really hard to stop picking some to post for the blog.

These next two photos begged for a bit of a different processing.  Who am I to say no?  ;)

Before we actually went to the books, we met at the church where Daniel and Erin met.  Aren't they cute?

And this is what happens when you tell them to give  you a serious look.  :D

Thank you guys SO much for such a lovely evening.  I can't wait for your wedding!!!
