As you’ve likely noticed, the past few posts on this blog have been from my recent trip to Europe. There are still plenty more Europe photos to come, but we’ll take a break for now and resume our regularly scheduled wedding and portraiture-related posts :)
It’s worth noting that the main impetus for that Europe trip was Jasmin’s 30th birthday party, to be held in mid-September in Denmark. I got the invite earlier this year and I don’t think anyone really expected me to make the trek over there. But it’s exactly the sort of thing I would do – something that may seem a little crazy, but that I’ve rationalized and justified in my mind. I first met Jasmin two years ago on a Switzerland camping trip with two of my Swiss friends, who were also invited to her party. When would be the next time we’d all be able to get together like this? Plus, I was also due for a reunion with my Dutch friend (who will also make an appearance on this blog in due time). Everything fell into place, I found a cheap flight (I’m telling you, I’m freakishly good at this), and come September 10 I found myself across the pond in Europe.
While visiting Jasmin in Denmark, I also had the pleasure of meeting her boyfriend, Kenneth. I didn’t get to do a full-blown photoshoot with them, but I did snap a few pictures of them during the time I spent in Denmark. They are so great together that I can’t help but smile about it :) Kenneth provides the balance to Jasmin’s crazy, goofy side – if nothing else, I think these photos show that perfectly.
