Eddie and Monique | Engagement Session | Santa Cruz Wedding Photographer

Monique and Eddie match. Not literally- but watching them interact with each other- there is an easiness and a sense of sameness between the two. They watch out for each other, help each other and love each other as they move through life. They are funny. They are genuine. They are loving and awesome.

We spent most of a Sunday afternoon loving the sunlight as our previous date had been cancelled due to the rain. By the time I finally got to meet them, I was almost giddy. They were everything that any photographer would have hoped that an engaged couple could be. Absolutely in love with each other. And pretty ridiculously photogenic. I loved them by the end of the session. I cannot wait to shoot their wedding in June!

We started our session off at Niscene Marks, which I'm embarressed to say I'd never been too before! It was gorgeous- the light and the greeness of it!

I love sun flare- don't hate! :)

This is their baby, Shasta who joined us for a couple shots.

The next series of four are my favorite from the session...

Man, they are so much fun! :-)

There's something about this shot that makes my heart skip a beat. Maybe its because I know that they will be standing like this and holding hands like this in a little over a month and a half... whatever the reason- it makes me smile inside.

Um... Monique is gorgeous.

Seriously...

And Eddie is pretty bad-ass himself!

Yummy light and beautiful Capitola buildings!

Eddie and Monique, you guys are unbelievably awesome. I can't wait to shoot your wedding!!

Green Eyes by Coldplay is one of their favorite songs. :-)
