maggie + terence | union train station | los angeles | engagement

walking around and exploring nooks and crannies around a city is what i love to do on a shoot.  you get the overarching plan of hitting up a spot and then you quickly veer off course into the netherworld.  in this case with terence and maggie, we ended up in mexico buying hats and churros while touring around downtown los angeles next to the union station. 

if you're brave enough to let us guide you into an unfamiliar situation with reckless abandon, the only thing i can guarantee is that you'll come away with engagement pictures that no one else has.  that's why we love terence and maggie, because they let us do that and all four of us ended up with new hats to keep us warm. 

some highlights from our fun-filled adventour.

juhui + alvin | san francisco | deyoung museum | engagement

don't you just love it when you meet someone new and you just hit it off right at the get go?  that's the way it was with juhui and alvin.  they are such a warm couple and shooting them was so easy.  we started off at the golden gate park's deyoung museum and worked our way up to marine headlands for stunning views of the golden gate bridge.  

it was freezing cold that day, especially up on the cliff, but they were troopers and i managed to keep my fingers from freezing to the shutter.  we warmed up with some coffee afterwards with our second studio shooter, aubrey, who'll be shooting their wedding in july!  can't wait to see how awesome those pics are going to come out.
