Engaged: Jessica + David

I mean, RIGHT?!  I loved working with these two!  David was r-e-a-d-y and had both Jess and I cracking up.  I can't even tell you how amazing it is when the guy is willing to let go in front of the camera.  It's usually easier for the girl, but these two slipped into their zone and trusted me completely.  And that is when you have the BEST outcome!  On top of that, these two were styled by Audree, which makes life that much easier ;)

The sad news?  I was already booked for their wedding :(  But in the end, I'm thrilled that I got to be at least a small part of this journey with them.  I have no doubt these two will keep flirting and laughing into old age together -- the best kind of love :)

Engaged: Johnny + Criselda

These two.  These two together is something quite beautiful.  As individuals they are some of the most giving, relational, and God-chasing people Jose and I know.  And together?  It's the sweetest love...

How impeccable are their outfits?!  I love the electric blue (one of their wedding colors).  

But you know what's electric?  Johnny and Criselda.  Together.

I can't think of anything better than this kind of love.  One that inspires people.  And for me to record the beginning of Johnny and Criselda's love story is taking part of what God has called me to do with my photography.

Their wedding is going to be electric.  Electric I tell you :)

Bella: Rendezvous in the Desert

Sometimes I just don't have much to say (which is quite rare, let me tell you).  This is one of those moments.  I type something -- then I delete it.  This post is meant simply for the images.  So here you go....

One of my favorites on the left.  Embodies the part of the desert that I love :)

This could not have been possible without the ever-great planning of Heather Diehard and the wardrobe that Elle Campbell worked so brilliantly in front of the camera.  Cool was just spilling off of Elle.  Sometimes it's just that simple.  A skirt, a girl, and the sun.  I'm a lucky girl.

p.s. The skirt is from Anthropologie.  Because, yes, I was wondering too.
