{engagement} homespun love...and a cat

but honey, your homespun love
just keeps me comin' back for more.

the balcony where brant proposed to nina...

it meant a lot for them to do their engagement session at their apartment as it's their first place together.

love love when brides-to-be send in their engagement sessions. makes me feel so flattered that they picked my blog to show them off.
and who wouldn't want to show these romantical images by
Kristina of Vrai Images

again, i can't stress enough the fact that if you don't want to follow the trend of styled shoots, don't then.
who says you can't have fun and just be real?
Nina and Brant chose to start off in their apartment then off to their favorite parts of the city near Lake Michigan.

congratulations to Nina and Brant!
and Kosmos the cat too.

thanks again, Nina, for sending these over and can't wait to see the wedding.
check more of Kristina's work on her website and blog.

i will wear...

...will wear a white dress
you will paint a sunset
life will be a love fest
that’s how it all begins.

saving the best for last...

congrats to julie and felix!


in love with this engagement session by the talented husband-wife team of jan garcia photography.
this session included all sorts of landscapes that southern california is most known for:
woods, city, and beach.
jan and tey did such an amazing job of not only capturing the essence of the environment, but also the gorgeousness of this couple.

many thanks to jan and tey for letting me share!
head on over to their website and blog for much more goodness!
