We just love it when our couples are as relaxed in front of our cameras as Kim and Eric were. We also really liked that their clothes were color coordinated.

Natasha and I always look for new areas to shoot even at familiar spots. This time we were thrilled to find some gorgeous trees at such a popular photo location as Baker Beach.

It got even more interesting when we found out that our second location was closed. The courtyard at the Legion of Honor was locked for the evening, but even the outside area was seriously fun.

I think Kim and Eric’s sentiments towards each other are pretty easy to see. These guys are planning a beautiful fall-themed wedding for October and we couldn’t be more excited for them. Thanks for a great time!

love you!

Spring is here, the sun is out and everything is blooming! It got absolutely impossible to sit at home, so for Mike’s upcoming birthday we decided to check out some nature.

After a 3 hour drive to Mendocino we finally came to our destination – Vichy Springs Resort. I found this place after hours of searching online as a surprise for Mike.

The place was super relaxing: we soaked in mineral water tubs, slept, and hiked. I almost stepped on a garter snake on our porch and in the morning we saw deer right out of our windows. The nearby creek was teeming with fish, salamanders, ducks and lizards.

Crawling around the creek with our cameras:

Here is the frog Mike was hunting in the pic above:

The warm and piercing sun:

We had a great and relaxing time which seriously reenergized our creativity. Happy upcoming birthday, Mike!!
