Couples in Love are Surrounded by Nature by Luke Liable

I found the photographer Luke Liable through a Huffington Post article called These 25 Photos Are Not Your Average Engagement Pics. Junebug Weddings just announced the winners of their annual engagement photo contest and Luke was one of them. His shot, above, was the cover photo on the Huffington Post article. Isn’t it scorching hot? “The 2016 collection is compelling, breathtaking, and undeniably sexy,” editor-in-chief Carrie Crooks of Junebug Weddings said in a press release.

Some of Luke’s photos have that Max Wanger negative space vibe going on (which I love). Luke is able to capture magical moments that make you wish you had taken that photo. It’s when everything comes together perfectly, the backdrop, the subjects, the light and you know it’s something you won’t ever be able to replicate. These 12 photos were of engagements or weddings. The one commonality is that they’re all taken in front of breathtaking backdrops. Whether that means snowy hills or the vast ocean, the photos show how nature is the most beautiful backdrop of all.

Here’s a bit about Luke:

Born and raised in Saskatchewan, I am a Vancouver based lifestyle & Editorial photographer. While I have spent most of my life fascinated by human nature and interested in stories that come from even the simplest interactions, My goal and passion is to capture moments and collect them into photos that tell a story or spark a memory. Whether it be a big or a small story, these are the moments that form the lives in front of us and leave a legacy beyond what we could hope for or imagine.
