Beth and Brandon are a hilarious, down-to-earth, laid-back couple. We had a fabulous time taking their photos because they constantly made me laugh, and their big personalities can’t help but shine through. Brandon wasn’t too keen on having photos done. He HATES taking photos, but he did it for his bride Beth, and later he […]

Monique and Miguel met at a club, due to the persistence of her friend. “You have to meet this guy! He’s so nice!” was the general plea. But Monique wasn’t buying it. No guy was that nice and respectful, especially one that would be in a club. She did meet him, and she wasn’t sorry. […]

Josephine’s family is rich with tradition, so she and Paul had a traditional Vietnamese Engagement Ceremony. It was AWESOME. Paul’s family came bearing gifts, and his father knocked on the door. Then Josephine’s father answered the door and invited them inside. It’s a version of the groom asking the bride’s father for permission to marry […]

Mark proposed in a bathroom. He had masterfully thrown Blythe off his track and was able to pull off a great surprise. She knew he was going to propose. He’d asked her father for her hand in marriage, and they talked about the ring. When they spent two weeks in Costa Rica, she was sure […]

The first time Reina saw Jesus she told herself, “I’m going to marry that man.” When Jesus saw a photo of Reina, he thought, “She looks good…” I think it was pretty inevitable they would end up together. They went to Starbucks for their first “date,” where they talked for four hours and became quick […]

She laughs at his jokes, reels him in when he’s being too goofy (he wanted to do their engagement shoot in costumes), and looks at him like he’s the most beautiful person she’s ever seen. The chemistry between them is Oscar-worthy. Rachelle and Eric met when his band was playing at a local restaurant and […]

Sarah and Nick spent the day in Monterey, sight-seeing, eating, hanging out – just a normal day for a couple like them. Normal except that Nick was carrying his backpack with him EVERYWHERE they went. Sarah was wondering why he had to have his backpack, even if they were just stopping to eat. Little did […]
