Engagement sessions are amazing. I think every couple should have one because they are so awesome. It helps you get used to being in front of the camera, and it’s basically a great time to connect with your bride/husband to be! Trust me; no one walks away from one of my engagement sessions without a smile on their face. And sometimes, a little bit exhausted too! Looking good for the camera can be hard work people!! And my couples ALWAYS look good.
It was an early Sunday morning when I met Amanda and Dustin and we were only a few sips into our coffee when I realized there was something just a little extra special about their relationship. I’m not sure if it was the way Dustin looked at Amanda or the small gestures and non-verbal language […]
I love engagement sessions, for many reasons too. Selfishly, I genuinely enjoy my clients, so spending extra time with them before the wedding is always a bonus. Plus, they really are a lot of fun and a great way to help you feel more comfortable in front of my camera. We get to spend a […]
Every couple has a story that is as unique and special as their love for each other; Sebrena and Don are no exception. Because they both were admittedly a little camera shy, I encouraged them to do an engagement session. I always find that if you are nervous at all in front of the camera, […]
When I first met Jenna, she was planning her wedding from Seattle while her Noah was in Sacramento taking care of his family. So, when Jenna suggested we take advantage of an upcoming visit to the city by the Bay where she and Noah lived for some time to do their engagement session, I was […]
From the very first few emails that Kelly wrote to me, I knew she was a total and complete sweetheart. Her warmth and kindness radiated through her words on my screen. And when I finally got to meet her and Mike in person, I knew right away that all of my assumptions were true! We […]
It’s been a pretty calm winter here in Sacramento and the blog has been quiet. But, that’s all about to change. Spring and love are in the air, and my crazy, fun, wild, exhilarating, and all together wonderful wedding season is officially here…I’m so excited!! And so I’m kicking things off with Laura and David’s […]
From the first email Chelsea wrote to me, I knew her and John were just a little extra special. A zookeeper, a scientist, and a love that is a perfect example of how sometimes opposites attract. She’s a little on the wild side; he’s more conservative. Their story is a lyric that can be taken […]
I know it sounds cliché, but it really does seem like not too long ago I was putting together my review post for 2010. And yet, as we all know, time holds still for no man (or woman for that matter). And so here we are, another year passed. And what a crazy, wonderful, joy […]
I just want to go on record stating that almost all of my couples are a little nervous about getting in front of my camera the first time. The truth is that most people do not have their photographs professionally taken very often in their lives. My sessions are about an hour to two hours […]
I have to admit, when Wendy asked about bringing Michael’s “other baby” to their engagement shoot in Folsom I was in shock. That was until she told me the other baby was actually his Harley Davidson motorcycle. Oh, okay…I get it! That girl is a little vain though. I had to Photoshop a pain chip […]
