Big Bear + beautiful souls who are about to secretly elope, I mean come on! The romance in the air was palpable! There were moments that were so real and undirected, that I found myself apologizing for being there! It felt so personal and sweet and sound of my shutter, so intrusive! But hey! We wouldn't have these beauties if I didn't insert myself into their sweet lovin' moments, so glad you guys made the trip!
It's always an exciting day when you get an email from one of your favorite youth group kids that they're getting married, it's even better when they want you to document their big day and engagement! Amanda is such a fun spirit, that I've been privileged to know since she was a little girl, just dreaming about her wedding day! I'm so stoked to get to be a part of her and Abraham's wedding!
For their engagement shoot we took to the streets of old town Pasadena and 21 choices, the spot of their first date, how sweet is that!? These two are so much fun, we had so many great laughs and even better really great romantic moments that felt real and unforced! And oh man did that golden light show up, just when we thought rare California gloom was gonna rule the day, the sun showed up in a big way! I absolutely loved shooting with you guys! Can't wait for the wedding day! MWAH!
Sometimes life doesn't turn out the way you'd hope and your left waiting longer than you'd like to for something lots of people come by easily, or so it seems... And sometimes life leaves you broken hearted wondering how things could ever be normal or whole again... BUT just when we're convinced the soundtrack of our life is gonna keep playing the same sad tune, God does something beautiful, he brings it all together in a beautiful song, harmonizing the low notes with the highs, creating an unexpected symphony of redemption and love.
Craig and Carla, I couldn't be happier for you in the song God is writing across your life! Your wedding was a beautiful tribute to the unexpected symphony, wishing you both the best!
Enjoy the new soundtrack of your life together!
