Mark + Sarah's Engagement Session

Ok, so Sarah keeps trying to convince me that she and Mark in her own words are "the best wedding couple ever!" (like I need much convincing.... Sarah, I am going to keep letting you try cuz- I love your enthusiasm and charm!!

So when Mark first contacted me in regards to photographing their wedding I learned that Mark and I had crossed paths at SJS where we both were in the photojournalism program. I was honored that another fellow photographer was interested in my work-but part of me was terrified- I mean , for reals , anybody that knows me, I can barely handle my own criticism- seriously! I quickly got over it after meeting with both Mark and Sarah-I knew- I would love the opportunity to work with them on their wedding day! enough about me.. back to the best wedding couple ever...

They are both so passionate about life and each other and are truly inspirational peeps. Beautiful and real from the inside out... Working with them during our engagement session was nothing short of fantastic. Thanks for sharing a beautiful afternoon with me!!

Engagement Session- Santa Cruz CA

Felice and Mike's engagement session was so much fun. They chose to use the Swift Street Area for their engagement session since it is actually one of the spots they now miss while living in Pasadena. We started out at the Santa Cruz Mountain Brewery.. always a great spot to grab a couple of pints-and get loosened up! (Thanks Chad and Emily)!! Then worked our way around the area.

Both Felice and Mike are a joy to work with and you can tell.. totally in love! Thanks guys for an awesome day!!

I can't wait to photograph their wedding day. Their wedding will be held at Mission San Juan Bautista and their reception with be held at Pajaro Dunes. enjoy!

I really enjoyed meeting all of their friends and family as well.

It was a honor and pleasure to capture their wedding day! Enjoy
