ANDY & TIA
Although Andy and Tia are engaged to be married in Placerville, they agreed on a downtown engagement session. We found some new spots to utilize and some old spots that had different lighting than last time which gave us lots of interesting options on a beautiful late fall afternoon.

NAVI & SUNJIT (The rest of their images in a slideshow HERE!)

Navi and Sunjit chose Cambria as their location for their engagement session, which automatically gives their photographer lots of GREAT environments to use for pictures.






While the two are going to be married in April, Sunjit had not seen the finished results of a ring she had designed and Navi had custom ordered. He brought it along with him and at sunset on Shamel Beach, presented it to Sunjit with the traditional box of chocolates. Guess which gift got all the attention?

BEN & JUANA

I met Juana a few years ago when she interned at my church-- a very friendly girl with many friends. She had met her fiancee Ben while working at a youth camp and the two personalities-- Juana's outgoingness and Ben's quiet trustworthiness-- made for great couple material, thus an engagement.


A fun shoot in the explosion of seasonal colors that is Fall in the Sierra. We were at about 5,000 feet where some of the colors had reached a peak. Amazing.







Late into the afternoon we were treated to a relative rarity... a blazing red and orange sunset through the pines on a ridge.
