It was almost exactly two years ago that I first posted this very adorable session of Cami & Eric at Lake Merritt in Oakland. These two have been in a long distance relationship for the last three years while living in varying combinations of Oakland, Seattle, Rome, and Phoenix. It wasn’t until this past June…
They met in middle school, when Fernando was just a shy boy, struck by love at first sight. Nina just remembers asking him what middle school he was attending. Of course, they eventually started dating in high school, and after being together for seven years, Fernando proposed to Nina after dinner with her family at…
She was always a bit of a wild child, a party girl. He has always been a farm boy, born and raised in the small town of Eden, New York. But when they met back in college, somehow the pieces fit. He keeps her grounded; she keeps life interesting. And at the end of the…
Raquel and Andy’s engagement guest book just arrived in the mail last week, and it came out beautifully! I love seeing my work in print, and I can’t wait to see this book in action at their wedding in the fall. Here are just two of the many adorable spreads, with some blank spaces for…
I drove past the house on accident and pulled over to turn around. A beautiful deer paused right next to me, gauging whether to resume eating leaves or run away. It eventually ran away. Later, going back up the road, a small pack of wild turkeys ran zig-zagging across the road as if they were having the…
They met at work, and what began as friendship for over a year slowly turned into a romantic relationship. And then that turned Joe into a man with a plan and a question on Stinson Beach– Will you marry me? Of course, Catherine said yes. Over the years, Catherine and Joe have grown to find…
If you’ve been following my blog and the Shooting Film series, you may know that I’ve been documenting all sorts of unscientific experiments in my venture into film. Part 5 was originally going to be about getting started in film, but I figure you can just go to Jonathan Canlas for that. And instead, I’ll…
Below are just a few of the film frames from Raquel & Andy’s engagement session in Atlanta. View the original post of digital files here. \
She knew from the beginning, even before he asked her to be his girlfriend, that she wanted to marry him. It was over videochat that he introduced her to his adorable nephews who were sitting on his lap. Jason had little Justin ask the first question– will you be my uncle choo–choo’s girlfriend? And Mega…
They share a love of travel and are often seeking new adventures. When they set out to go hiking in Argentine Patagonia, Raquel thought a proposal might be in the works, but she knew the custom ring they had gone shopping for couldn’t be ordered in time, so she let her suspicions slide. And then,…
I love the way she calls him Chana. It’s a little ball of endearment coated in love. I ask Evy what it means, and she laughs, saying she doesn’t even know if she’s even pronouncing it correctly. She probably puts a Spanglish spin on this Hindi word– Chana. Chickpea. But it’s perfect just the way…
I am quickly falling behind on blogging because I am off enjoying Atlanta with its gorgeous springtime weather and blooms all around. Normally you can find all my sneak peeks on my Facebook page, but I am treating you all to a sneak peek right here today. Evy and Joe are amazing, amazing people, and…
