Engaged: Katie and AJ

She said she'd get in trouble because her boss thought she was messy. AJ threw paper clips at Katie's desk. That's where they met. At work. It was his way of flirting. He said, "I knew it was true love because she didn't rat me out." And true love is just what I saw when we spent some time in the city to photograph their love.

We originally scheduled their engagement session last year, but due to bad weather we had to re-schedule. I couldn't think of a better way to spend my first Saturday in 2010 photographing two people absolutely in love. The weather turned out to be beautiful, but I know that these two had everything to do with it ;)

I actually met Katie and AJ a couple of years ago. But it was for a brief moment. Who knew that years later, they'd choose me to be their photographer. During their engagement session, I fell in love. I fell in love with who they were as people, and as a couple. Everything about the way they looked at each other. The way AJ whispered into Katie's ears sending a huge smile on her face. The way they make each other laugh. Their chemistry. It's pure. It's real. It's true love.

Katie and AJ: I love you both! Fa real. I am SO excited that we have finally managed to somehow meet again and be in each other's lives. You guys make me laugh until my tummy hurts, and make me smile my big smiles. Thank you for spending the day with me, and I'm looking forward to it again in April! Xoxo

They make each other laugh so easily

Katie looked like this the entire day. I love her happiness.

My favorite from the session. Took them to the painted ladies, or better known as the Full House Houses. I knew I loved them when they got excited and love the show as much as I do. Yep. I'm a loud and proud Tanner Family lover.

Again, with the laughing

gorgeous lighting on the embarcadero

don't they just make you want to smile?

Cuteness overload!

Love: JD and Michelle (Part 2)

Love: JD and Michelle (Part 1)

She has the kind of beauty that you don't see often but wished you had. Then you meet her, and her intelligence will blow you away. He has a heart of gold, and a magnetic personality that you can't get enough of. You'll always want him to be around. Together, they are JD and Michelle. Truly two of the most amazing people I've ever met, and one of the most perfect couples I've ever known.

You can see it in the way they look at each other. You can hear it in the way he talks about her, and the way she talks about him. You can feel it when you're in the same room with them. It is undeniable. These two have the love that you wish for when you are younger. The love you want when you are older. The love you want to have for the rest of your life.

JD and Michelle. These are for you. Thank you for letting me capture the beauty that makes the two of you. Love you both so much. Can't wait to see you in a few weeks :)

Love: Louis and Charmaine

I've known Charmaine since we were in middle school. If I wanted to make a fool of myself in the blog world, I'd say that we used to sing in front of the bathroom mirrors before class started. But i'll save myself the humiliation and say that we've been best friends ever since :)

Louis is her boyfriend. A perfect fit if I may add. Currently in law school here in San Francisco, I have him to thank for taking care of one of my best friends. Also, because of him, I get the chance to see her every now and then when she visits him. All I have to say to that is "Aussie, Aussie, Aussie, OY OY OY!"
