Yesterday felt like taking a deep breath after you’ve swum up from the deepest part of the pool. Refreshing, life giving, and allows you to be grateful to be able to breathe again. I know we all have missed out normal routines, but getting a chance to take photos of a couple in love was wonderful reminder of why I love what I do .

Yesterday’s engagement session was sooooo fun! I got to explore up in orange county, which I don’t get to do all that often AND I got to do it with old family friends. I’ve known Ellen since she was in high school in Thailand with my little brother and it’s been amazing watching her grow and fall in love, all from facebook of course. But when I was lucky enough to be chosen as her wedding photographer I was thrilled.

We met at The Smith Center for the Performing Arts which is a gorgeous theater with amazing architecture and the perfect backdrop for this beautiful couple. They arrived and we jumped right into it and did such an amazing job, and a huge part of that is how sweet they are to each other, and how in love they clearly are.
