Engaging: Rachel & Roy

Rachel and Roy both attended Columbia University but it wasn't amongst the books where they met. The two first laid eyes on each other in the Miami heat during a softball game and are now wedding in San Diego. Their day will be filled with Jewish traditions and symbolic olive branches. There might have to be some rich chocolate thrown in there because this duo can't live without it! A big thank you to John Newsome for these lovely photos. We can't wait to wish this happy couple luck on their big day! Mazel Tov!

What do you love most about your significant other?
Rachel: His loyalty, his enthusiasm, his mind
Roy: Her enthusiasm, her curiosity, and her optimism, and her laugh

Engaging: Connie and Chris

Looking back at their college years at UCSD, Connie and Chris are reminded of when they first met and fell in love. These two were immediately attracted to each other and shared a respect for hard work while also being able to set aside time to be playful and have fun! Their ideal way to spend a day together involves a coastal drive on winding roads, a picnic on a sailing boat, and ending the evening with a romantic dinner. This duo is seriously so sweet and Jacqueline from Birds of a Feather beautifully captured their sweet love in these engagements!

Engaging: Courtney & Nate

When Courtney hears the song Living on a Prayer by Bon Jovi, she is reminded of the countless nights she and Nate would spend together at their favorite bar while studying at Yale. It was the last song the bar would play every night and it now carries loving memories that will continue forever. When the two left Yale they gained more than an education, they gained each other. Now living in the heart of downtown Encinitas, this passionate duo is enjoying a San Diegan lifestyle. Acqua Photo did a great job capturing their love in these engagements! All were taken within walking distance of their hip new loft, giving faraway friends and family a peak into their new life together in this fun little beach town!

Engaging: Niki and Mark

The instant the song "Empire State of Mind" by Jay-Z and Alicia Keys begins to play our soon-to-be bride, Niki, immediately travels back in time to when she first met her fiancé in The Big Apple. Niki and Mark fell head over heels for each other amongst the bright lights of an inspiring city.  They feasted on the best of foods from restaurants like Alta and Yerba Buena which became their favorites. Niki became impressed by Mark's strong devotion to his family and friends, and Mark to Niki's supportive and kind spirit. Together they moved to the West Coast and now share a strong love for their playful Dachshund, Mini. Their puppy love radiates in these flirtatious engagement photographs shared by Ryan C. Jones Photography.
We could not be more thrilled for this duo. The planning process is underway for their beautifully fun July thirteenth wedding!

Engaging: Amber + Matt

We are so delighted to share these engagement photos taken of our upcoming bride and groom, Amber and Matt! These two make quite a pair and we're excited to get to know them more as the planning unfolds! Just a few things we've already learned....

These jet-setters met at JFK airport as they waited to board a flight to Spain, where they would study abroad. They may be taking another memorable oversees trip for their honeymoon, as they plan on going to Bali. Even though they are so well traveled they are definitely an All American couple....they share a love for country music, specifically Kenny Chesney and wouldn't prefer to live anywhere else than sunny San Diego!

This photo session is especially dear to our hearts as their photographer, Nicole from Clarity by Nicole Photography, was a previous bride of ours! You may remember her to-die-for wedding as the Baseball Wedding.

We are thrilled to be working with such a darling couple on their August 2012 wedding. Congratulations Amber and Matt!
