Christina & Miguel (and Spike too! )

I feel so lucky to have had the opportunity to photograph the engagement of Christina & Miguel! What a sweet and fun couple! Which of course means it was a fun shoot! What a joy to spend a couple of hours with them, a few members of their wedding party and the adorable Spike. They have planned their wedding date for next year in beautiful Sonoma where the bride is from, so the couple wanted their engagement photos taken in the grooms hometown of Santa Barbara. We covered the town! We shot everywhere from the Santa Barbara Mission and Rose Garden, the historic Santa Barbara Courthouse, a funky urban neighborhood downtown, the Oreana Winery, and last but not least, Butterfly Beach which is near and dear to the couple's hearts. Christina and Miguel...best wishes for an amazing wedding day surround by your families and friends and may you have a lifetime of happiness and love that is so obvious now in your smiles!
