lindsey + joe | palo alto engagement session

Sometimes just by looking at a couple you can tell that they are meant for each other. We shot Joe and Lindsay's e-session at Foothills Park in Palo Alto. The wind was a bit cold for spring time but it did not stop the couple from showing off their affection in front of the camera. There were plenty of hugs, smiles, giggles which set the mood for this wonderful engagement photo session. The park offered great scenery for this adventure loving couple, they even included their red wrangler jeep in some of the photos. In September, both of them will be taking a new adventure in marriage and its shaping to be quite an adventure. 

We took the 2nd part of our shoot to downtown Palo Alto. Thanks to Brian Cook of Gravity Wine Bar for allowing us to photograph the couple in his establishment. 

We look forward to shooting Lindsay and Joe's special day this coming September. We are super excited for you both!!!

Special Thanks to Frances of Charmed Events Group for believing in our work, we hope to return the favor by sending clients your way =) 

[preview] love always protects, always trusts, always hopes...

"Love is patient, love is kind. It does not envy, it does not boast, it is not proud.  It does not dishonor others, 

it is not self-seeking, it is not easily angered, it keeps no record of wrongs.  Love does not delight in evil but rejoices with the truth.  

It always protects, always trusts, always hopes, always perseveres. "

~ 1 Corinthians 13:4-7 ~

 Stay tuned for more of this couple's vintage fun railroad and music engagement session..... =D

LOVE is such a wonderful feeling... may you enjoy this day with your loved ones.... =D

natalie + chuck | long beach e-session

It is always sunny down in Long Beach, CA. Just perfect for Natalie and Chuck's TBL e-session! We are very honored to be in the presence of Granpa Spike (see pic below), We guess he approves our work =) The couple wanted a downtown shoot along 4th Street which is home to the town's best art stores and crafts (we're in the Art District after all). We strolled around and found these narrow alleyways filled with brick walls with cracked pavements. Just the right backdrop for a walk around town kind of shoot. 

Our second location was at Valparaiso Plaza along E Ocean Blvd. It has a fantastic view of the ocean, whimsical treeline formations, and a wide grass area just right for a picnic setup. As the sun sets, we took a  quick stroll to the beach to wrap things up. We had a fantastic time with Natalie and Chuck and we are looking forward shooting their wedding this coming October. Time flies and we will be there to capture more beautiful images of the two (and of course Spike's)
