So, I’ve been thinking of what I could say today, and the only thing that really sticks out to me is how much my life has changed since this time last year. It was just a year ago when I flew from LA to Honolulu to spend Valentine’s Day with Loretta. Of course, as some of you may recall, Loretta had a bad injury and ended up on crutches. Needless to say, we didn’t do much to celebrate.
Today, things are much different for both of us. This time last year, we were still getting to know each other, and today we are engaged to be married.
Some of you have already seen some of our engagement photos, and today I thought I’d start sharing some with the rest of the world. So, every week from now until we get married on April 10th, I will share some photos from our engagement session, as well as the occasional story behind the shots.
For today, I’ll start with a single image that we shot on Maui. It was late afternoon, very gloomy, very windy, and about to storm. Of course, we photographers absolutely LOVE this kind of light, because the softness just wraps around the subject(s).
We spent a good 30 minutes or so at this spot while my sister and her family stayed back to keep warm in the car. It was about a 12-15 minute hike back to the car, and it started to rain as we headed back.
We were truly blessed to have had just enough time to get some great images from this brief session. And I’m so grateful for having a girl that has the patience to create stuff like this with me. 🙂
Happy Valentine’s Day, Baby! :*
P.S. What are you doing this Valentine’s? As for us, we are planning a nice evening at home cooking something new for each other.

Absolute beautiful picture. Very touching series. Can’t wait to see more… Happy Valentine’s Day to you both!!! 🙂
