this has to be one of my favorite engagment sessions this year- melissa and michael were so much fun and had tons of great ideas. not to mention killer style- don’t you think? sadly i won’t be shooting their wedding because it’s in august right when the baby is due (thank heavens that heather will be covering it!), but i can’t wait to shoot their bridals in san diego this weekend!

First day of my Life by Bright Eyes is michael and melissa’s song, so they wanted to recreate a scene from the music video, i think it turned out pretty close!

don’t you just want to steal melissa’s outfit? i NEED those shoes. =)

i was soooooo thrilled with this light- isn’t it gorgeous!?

they also really wanted to do something with rain boots and puddles-

the salt flats were perfect!
