Engagement Photoshoot with the 90's Loving Couple

If you haven't guessed from the title, yes We Love the 90's!  And while there are hundreds of things that make this decade so awesome - Friends, Fresh Prince of Bel-Air, The Simpsons, Star Wars, Pretty Woman, pagers, Discman, iMac, Super Soaker - just to name a few, we're turning our attention on what this next couple of ours is most fond of about the time period of their youth: gangsta rap.  That's right - 2pac, Notorious B.I.G., Bone Thugs-N-Harmony - and if you're an O.G. L.A. native who grew up in the 90's, you know just how tight this music was.  So don't hate as I use some slang from the 90's, but for both our sakes, I'll stop making you uncomfortable with my awkward attempts.

With that being said, meet Ally & Evan!  Both have such big personalities and definitely know how to have a good time.  Now, how would we know that?  Well, Janet and I actually met Ally back in college when she came down to visit San Diego with a mutual friend.  We somehow decided to make a very random and very last-minute trip down to Rosarito to find a lobster restaurant that everyone from SD knew about, and ended up staying out pretty late... You can probably figure out why, I mean look where we were...

Fast forward 7 years later, and we randomly run into Ally in Downtown L.A. and reminisce about the last time we saw each other.  She introduces us to Evan, and now we get to help them throw the biggest party of their lives, also known as their wedding!  And knowing Ally & Evan, their guests are probably going to keep it rockin with all that 90's hip-hop and rap!  We can't wait!  love, erica

A Sweet Engagement Photoshoot at the Abandoned LA Train tracks

As we share these next E-session photos taken by Jay of Chocolate Photography, I can't help but grin from ear to ear!  Rick is one of my older cousins, and as kids growing up, I looked up to him with a sort of fearful awe.  We were separated by an invisible "age line" that divided the older cousins from the younger ones, and I didn't make the cut-off.  He was, in my opinion, "too cool for school" and it wasn't until much later after I graduated from college that I got to know him a little better.  That being said, I can't help but giggle seeing my "cool" cousin look so lovey-dovey!

So along came Jennifer ~ kind, sweet, soft-spoken, and so thoughtful!  I wondered, "How did he get so lucky and meet such a nice girl?!"  And after being introduced to ALL the relatives, I thought we might scare her off with our loud personalities, but she stuck with us and now she's part of the family!  Many blessings on your marriage ~ and no pressure, but I can't wait to babysit your future little ones!

love, erica
