Jaime and Anthony - engagement

jaime and anthony have a quite presence that beats to a continuous rhythm that is only heard when one is patient enough to listen.


i received a call a few weeks ago from jaime telling me that she and anthony had decided to change the location of their engagement session from the beach to the santa barbara courthouse in santa barbara, ca.



now, i was quite impressed that jaime and anthony had went against conventional mindset towards taking an engagement portrait to embracing a style that was unique to them and let us adapt to the surroundings.

i immediately researched the location and instantly fell over in my seat. i have never been to the courthouse but booooooooooooooooy was it right up my ally. low light...extremely low light, beautiful architecture and an environment that could evoke some incredible moments.

i met jaime and anthony and instantly whisked them away and had them walk with me throughout the courthouse.


i can really get a feel of the couples "engagement" with one another and the love they have for one another the moment the shutter fires. i sensed an apprehensiveness to be on film...like 80% of us, but slowly found that jaime and anthony let me be with them during moments that they "just let go".

this important element usually reveals some amazing and unscripted images. thank, thank, thank you jaime and anthony for sharing this wonderful location with me and embracing our photography to capture you in a way that touches both our hearts.
