Completely and perfectly

Happy

Winter Engagement in Julian

I’m stoked about this next entry. I have been waiting forever for a winter theme engagement session so believe it or not, this is my first! Yay. Being in the snow just makes everything sweeter and happier (And yes, freezing fun). It’s a perfect environment for the adorable, Tien and Eric. Even after 7 years of dating, these young love birds still have their sparks flying higher than ever. I was able to capture so many beautiful sudden laughters and eyes that read forever. They are incredible together. I couldn’t be happier to be their photographer and document this special lifetime moment. Usually, I would start my shoots around sunset hours but this time, we left San Diego to Julian at 6am for SUNRISE. It was hailing in San Diego the day before, leaving us with fresh, soft, white snow in the mountains.

Tien likes winter and Eric likes summer. She likes the cold and can’t stand the heat. He likes the warmth and … well he’ll have to deal with the cold =) Photographing in the snow is beautiful but not easy (especially when I forgot to bring my gloves). We were working in temperatures below 30 and were slapped around by icy winds. I even saw a gush of wind knocked little Tien over haha! But through all the hardships of icy roads and freezing to the point where my fingers fell off and our communication turned numb in coldness, it was the best day ever.

The sun finally decides to join us for this photo.

“Your hands are cold.”
“Your face is so cold!”
I was in heaven. Literally.
He looks like Jesse McCartney in this one!
What’s a winter shoot without cuddling? =) Tien spotted this awesome shelter to warm up in.

Ice on Ice


She said “Yes!” She actually knew a lot about dry wheat and long grasses. More reasons for him to admire her.
Getting cold at the lake… but they have body heat. I have my lovely camera body. We’re all happy.
I usually don’t do “The peek-a-boo from the tree”, but this shot actually came out pretty cute!

Winter is the best time to have a hot chocolate and famous Julian pie.

This was a fun shot, I called it “The PDA”. People behind me were coming out of their shops to witness their contagious love and cars were honking (in a good way). We love friendly towns people during a snow day! I kinda have an obsession with any type of wooden fence. Especially when I saw this one!

Now its time to wrap up the day with some fun in the snow! (Forgive me, Eric) (Tien, your welcome)
