We didn&#8217;t want to be too artsy but felt that, for Teresa and Chad, a variety of backgrounds, focal lengths, depths of field, and post-processing techniques would create distinctive and memorable images.<\/p>\n<p>Slava&#8217;s first portrait a couple on railroad tracks ever (&#8220;Hey, guys &#8211; let&#8217;s try something on the tracks&#8230;&#8221;) and it became our most favorite photo from the session:<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" alt=\"\" src=\"http:\/\/www.sarah-slavik.com\/blog\/09-i\/engagement_portrait_on_railroad_tracks.jpg\" title=\"Engagement Portrait on Railroad Tracks\" class=\"alignnone\" width=\"720\" height=\"480\" \/><\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" alt=\"\" src=\"http:\/\/www.sarah-slavik.com\/blog\/09-i\/engagement_portrait_by_a_brick_wall.jpg\" title=\"Engagement Portrait by a Brick Wall\" class=\"alignnone\" width=\"720\" height=\"480\" \/><\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" alt=\"\" src=\"http:\/\/www.sarah-slavik.com\/blog\/09-i\/couple_with_a_moving_train.jpg\" title=\"Couple with a Moving Train\" class=\"alignnone\" width=\"720\" height=\"480\" \/><\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" alt=\"\" src=\"http:\/\/www.sarah-slavik.com\/blog\/09-i\/cool_looking_couple.jpg\" title=\"Cool Looking Couple\" class=\"alignnone\" width=\"720\" height=\"480\" \/><\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" alt=\"\" src=\"http:\/\/www.sarah-slavik.com\/blog\/09-i\/couple_rubbing_their_noses.jpg\" title=\"Couple Rubbing Their Noses\" class=\"alignnone\" width=\"720\" height=\"480\" \/><\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" alt=\"\" src=\"http:\/\/www.sarah-slavik.com\/blog\/09-i\/smiling_engaged_couple.jpg\" title=\"Smiling Engaged Couple\" class=\"alignnone\" width=\"720\" height=\"480\" \/><\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" alt=\"\" src=\"http:\/\/www.sarah-slavik.com\/blog\/09-i\/couple_on_railroad_tracks.jpg\" title=\"Couple on Railroad Tracks\" class=\"alignnone\" width=\"720\" height=\"480\" \/><\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" alt=\"\" src=\"http:\/\/www.sarah-slavik.com\/blog\/09-i\/close-up_engagement_portrait_in_a_wagon.jpg\" title=\"Close-up Engagement Portrait in a Wagon\" class=\"alignnone\" width=\"720\" height=\"480\" \/><\/p>\n<p>More photos from the session can be found in our engagement portrait portfolio, <a href=\"http:\/\/www.sarah-slavik.com\/\/wedding_photography\/engagement\/marietta_square\/\">here<\/a>.<\/p>\n<p>Teresa and Chad get married on Oct. 3, 2009, in Marietta.
