Hey everyone!! Today, I’m excited to share my newest 2013 couple’s engagement session! Congratulations Eric & Sarah – these two are getting married in Canoga Park next spring, and since they live near my in-laws, Eric and I made a trip down to Simi Valley to capture this special time in their lives! After exploring a bit in the hills, I came across this amazing old barn, beautiful trees….and yes, a hand made, scary awesome suspension bridge! Add to that a fishing hook, backwards shirts, lots of laughs and amazing evening light and you’ve got a pretty awesome photo shoot! Check out a few of my favorites – congrats you two….can’t wait for your wedding day!! – Jessica
Inside jokes are the best….and personalizes your shoot! Thanks you two for telling me your “Lil Ladder Co” story!
***I HAD to share what happened next. Eric (groom, not mine) asked if we wanted our photo on this super cool, creaky, dangerous bridge too. I decided sure that could be fun – and then he went into “Jessica impression” mode and gave us modeling instruction. I loved it and what you see below is my full on belly laugh caught as we were told to ‘look to your right and contemplate your future”…..thanks Eric!! I can’t believe what I say sometimes at photo shoots, sorry!! 😉
We also had the chance to warm up with coffee and meet at Starbucks…the place Sarah & Eric had their first date! I love that Eric grafitti’ed their cups with initials, so sweet!
