Bob & Darla; Northwest Arkansas Engagement Photography, {Snaps by Poteat}

On the day of Bob & Darlas engagement session, I have to admit I was a little nervous! I have never been one to embrace the coldness! I tend to be a recluse this time of year and as a result am probably always Vitamin D deficient! Needless to say, I am not a fan of the cold! So I was decked out with toasty-toes, hand-warmers, layers of clothes, and all my gear!  It was cold!! BUT it could have been worse! I know Bob & Darla did not have any problems keeping each other warm and my hand-warmers did a pretty good job! After all was said and done, embracing the cold wasn't quite as bad as I had thought and we had a lot of fun while doing it!!  Hope you enjoy the images of this couple as much as I enjoyed taking them!

I'm not really sure what Bob was doing in this picture, but I  LOVE it that I captured this goofy face!

 Thank you to Bob & Darla for allowing me to capture the love that you share! I can not wait for your wedding!!
