Engagement Photoshoot: Tug at the Heartstrings

The somewhat gloomy, atypical Southern California weather was worrying us a bit during the past couple months,

but thank goodness now for the bright sunshine and beach-perfect weather!

And of course, with Summer comes more happy couples and wedding celebrations!

One of our next couples, Hanaya & Darren, are particularly close to my heart.

Hanaya and I met in junior high, when I moved into the neighborhood and started attending the same school.

Luckily, we had a mutual friend who also lived in our neighborhood, and the three of us hung out a lot together.

Like the Three Stooges, only not as foolish... or like Uncle Scrooge's grandnephews Huey, Dewey, & Louie, but not so rambunctious...

or maybe like the Three Musketeers, just not quite as handsome or gallant...

so you get the idea... basically, we were quiet, shy, little girls who got along really well and were such chatterboxes together,

that our parents wondered why our teachers never commented, "Talks too much in class."

So, when we found out about Darren, we wanted to make sure he was good enough for our Hanaya.

And we're glad to say, Hanaya's met her match in Darren.

As sweet and giving as she is, we know that he's just as loving and caring, and I'm so excited to see them share their vows!

Here are a couple photos from their engagement shoot with Adrienne Gunde!

Thanks Hanaya for having me be a part of your wedding day!

love,

erica

Engagement Photoshoot at Union Station and Walt Disney in Downtown Los Angeles

My dear friend Christine is getting married! I’ve known Christine since elementary school and although we haven’t consistently kept in touch, every time we do meet and get together it’s as if nothing has changed and we just pick up where we left off. I think these types of friendships are so precious as it is a true testament to how comfortable you are with someone and despite the periods of quiet, it shows that friendship doesn’t always mean proximity. I’m so excited for her and look forward to being a part of the planning process for her Big Day.

Christine is truly one of the most lovable people you’ll meet. It only makes sense that she met an equally lovable guy, Eric! Although, I’ve only met Eric once, his care and thoughtfulness for Christine is quite evident! It’s surprising that such a sweet couple could be criminal lawyers!!!

Christine and Eric are such a cute couple, with a great sense of humor!

Thanks to Studio Q for the photos below:

Can't wait for 2011!
