A heartfelt congratulations to Lisa and Marsilio on their engagement and soon to be wedding! They also won an Engagement Session giveaway from one of our most recent bridal shows, and we couldn’t wait to share a peek into this fabulous and inspiring session!
When I met Lisa, her enthusiasm lit the path for what has become a very nice experience for us all. Lisa and Marsilio are having their summer wedding at Oakland’s The Cathedral of Christ the Light on Lake Merritt. Their reception will be held at the Bellevue Club also on the ever so lovely, Lake Merritt.
One of the things I love most about being a wedding and lifestyle photographer is that I get to meet some of the most incredible people. People from different walks of life, culture, traditions and ethnicity. Lisa, who is of Japanese and Guatemalan descent, and Marsilio who is of Italian and Nicaraguan descent truly bring a lot to the table. And, get a load of this, they met while salsa dancing at a tropical club, and both are steamers on the dance floor! Talk about passion, and cultures that are fully engulfed with vibrancy, this couple is surely among the most exciting couples we have met and have worked with.
When Lisa said she would love to have her engagement session taken at home, a place they both treasure, I was ecstatic! Why? Because this is exactly what I do! I am a lifestyle photographer, and immediately, my mind was racing with ideas. When I shared with the couple the direction this shoot was going in, it excited them and they were ready to roll! See here for yourselves why this has got to be one of the best ideas when planning your engagement or even portrait session. It breathes, life, it breathes style, and in the end it breathes YOU!
Here’s a SNEAK peek….enjoy!
