Last Friday I shot Marga and Brian’s engagement session in downtown Santa Ana. I specifically remember meeting Marga for the first time – she was beautiful and bubbly and had bitchin’ shoes. She was definitely a girl after my own heart. And I was equally delighted to meet Brian, who is so charming. I love a guy who isn’t afraid to smile 
This couple were super-fun to shoot and were up for anything. I cannot wait until their wedding this October! I am going to *bring* it, for sure!
I use this sort of light a lot and I always appreciate when my clients are troopers. This was definitely bright and definitely hot, but Marga and Brian made it look easy!
Same light, from the other direction -
Aren’t they the cutest? -
And one last shot that just sums them up so well -
To Margarita and Brian: You are such a delight! I can’t wait to make the trip to NorCal for your big day!
delightfully,
Chenin
