well I'm not surprised these turned out so good (not to toot my own horn), but with Emma, I literally could do no wrong . her + chris are FIRE . i've known her since she was in middle school (& NO, she didn't ever have an awkward phase) and have always loved the little spitfire that she is . always beautiful, stylish, smart, and goes hard after what she wants . including chris . 

i had so much fun running around the coolest parts of okc with them . emma's a little fashion icon blogger babe + had the best variety of outfits for her + chris to wear to match our different locations! so happy i get to be their photographer this year for their engagements + wedding later this summer! it's going to be out of this world beautiful.

so here ya go - keep your pants on - they're bombshells .

running around the coast of La Push, Washington - hand in hand with your sweet, but wild love. 

these moments are precious, time always seems to speed up when you most want it to slow down – capturing + preserving these memories via photographs is the best gift I could ever offer.  courtney + tyler, these are for you . 

 love recklessly, love wildly.

San Francisco Engagement

JAMES + AMANDA | SAN FRANCISCO ENGAGEMENT

these two know how to have fun . and their relationship is something built from a devoted friendship . they know eachother backwards + forwards, loving eachother for who they are, no strings attached . this isn’t something we talked about really, its just something I witnessed + admired about them during the two days spent with them in San Fransisco . they flew me out to SF to capture them in a city they both love + adore, and we all stayed together in a quite unique airbnb .

we spent our time together mostly eating + drinking, with some adventures and photos throughout . champagne + oysters along the bay, a tour at a local brewery, thai takeout, Chinatown strolling, more champagne (& some unwarranted swimming) along black sands beach, and ended the night at Muir Woods, followed by letting loose at a chic, retro bar .

this was such a fun trip, and I love making these types of bonds with my couples . where we can just be ourselves + be weird +  have fun + capture the passion/fun between them simply because they’re being their truest selves .

james + amanda, you guys are the best . can’t wait for your wedding this year and more good times to come <3
