Jackie and Roy were only in town for these couple of weeks so we wanted to get the engagement shoot in, even if it meant braving a freezing-for-Socal day. Roy grew up in the East coast so the cold was nothing to him. One thing I like about cloudy days is that it creates a romantic mood for a shoot like this. It has a winter feeling without the snow. Here are the results of a fun shoot in Irvine.


I wanted to give them a nature-themed look for the engagement shoot because their wedding is going to be beach-themed, so this way they get a variety of photos.




Shot in this tunnel always turn out great.




Note the heart-shaped leaf right above Jackie. How completely random and awesome is that?


I love how the leaves create a frame around them.


A cute closeup.


Jackie has such a bubbly personality and Roy seems to feed off that energy.




This is one of my favorite shots... they are genuinely laughing and having a good time.






We squeezed these photos in with the last bit of light left for the day.
