Candice is a close family friend of mine.  I still remember her as young girl, and now she’s a Navy officer, along with her fiance David.  Although we are not shooting her wedding (we actually get to attend for fun for once) she asked us to take her engagement photos. We happily obliged.

Meet Lindsay





and her fiance, Scott



They are just as down to earth as they are gorgeous. We always joke about being fortunate to have the nicest clients ever, and hope that luck continues! For their engagement session, we wanted a location that would give us a mix of both urban and seaside environments. We remembered downtown Oceanside, where we had the honor of being photographed by Jay Reilly for our maternity session. You would never know, but Lindsay actually had the jitters at the beginning of the shoot. As you can see, they both did great.





















Lindsay told us her mom cried when she saw these photos. We’ve heard that many times before, about the impact our work has had on people and their loved ones. It’s gratifying to know our photographs can bring so much joy to others.

This was definitely one of the most fun shoots we’ve done. Mike cleverly chose the University of California Irvine campus for his and Tammy’s engagement session. He chose well, as the campus gave us a variety of environments to work with. They came well prepared, Mike even made a special song list on his ipod for the shoot. The music was an asset, especially for active part of the shoot, which showcased their dance talents. Both Mike and Tammy have danced for hip hop and breaking crews, and we had a BLAST working with people who are so comfortable with posing.
