What an absolute honor it was to work with these two incredible women.  Susana is a good friend of a dear friend of mine.  She is a photographer based in the LA area and does excellent work!  Check her out at CapraPhotography.com.  Azure is a poet and speaker.  She has an incredible ability to express in words the deep things that are impossible for most of us to say.  You can learn more about her at AzureAntoinette.com.  Together, Susana and Azure are an incredible force.  They balance each other and complete each other in wonderful ways.  I truly feel honored to have had the opportunity to work with them and help them celebrate their engagement out in Palm Springs, California!  Many of the photos you see here were set in the beautiful Parker Palm Springs resort, which I highly recommend you visit if you're ever traveling that direction.  It's a magical place.

Christina and Josh...  They know each other so well and they accept the other for all that they are.  They are able to get lost in each other and to laugh together, they're able to be serious and to just crack up, and they know when to be individuals and when to be a team. They recognize how their personalities and strengths complement each other, which in turn strengthens their relationship.  It was wonderful getting to know both Christina and Josh over a glass (or two...) of wine and working with them to create these photographs to celebrate their engagement.  Here's to an awesome future for you guys!  Cheers!

Man, this was an amazing day.  I don't even know where to begin.  First, Chelsea and Alex are some of the sweetest folks you could ever have the pleasure of knowing. They're a ton of fun and great folks to have as friends - I feel pretty special about the fact that I get to count them among mine.  Second, they are commited to their relationship - they're there for each other and not afraid of the work it takes to build and maintain a healthy partnership, which is awesome.

This lovely day, we got together at their place for a little Gulejo coffee and fruit, took it easy for a bit, and then headed out to the park with Sox.  We had such a great time - laughter, tears, and everything in between.  It was a treasure to spend the day with these two.  Love you guys!

Meet Kasey and Arthur.  They both laugh easily and openly, making them a joy to spend time with.  We did a Beloved session for their engagement in Micanopy, Florida the day after Kasey's birthday and just a few short weeks before Arthur's move back into town.  We had great weather and gorgeous light, especially toward the end of our session.  The last photo was a quick snap at Payne's Prairie right after we parted ways.  The warm, golden sun shining through the brush of the prairie as it was preparing to dip below the horizon seemed like the perfect ending to this lovely afternoon. :)

A quick little session with my good friends Jen and Girish.  We had this mini-Beloved shoot in downtown Gainesville a few weeks ago to celebrate their engagement.

Congrats, guys!  Looking forward to the big day. :)
