There are some clients who come into your life & you forget that you just met. This is how I feel about Diana and Ana. I felt an instant connection with them, like we’ve been friends for a long time. They are both so full of love and kindness it radiates off of them and touches you. I don’t say this often, while all of our clients have a unique place in my heart, there are some that you can’t wait to see how they continue to grow as a family, and you start feeling really silly-spiritual, as in, “Did the Universe open itself up for us to meet?”
They decided to have a small elopement on a private residence in Laguna Beach. There was a beautiful soft glow from the skies above, a gentle breeze and two women committing themselves to each other for infinity (and beyond!)
There is something incredibly special about being asked to capture a couple’s ceremony. You feel incredibly honored that two people are placing the documentation of the day in your hands. It’s humbling. Right before a ceremony, big or small, there is always a sense of relief, nervousness and over abundance of happiness that always brings tears to my eyes. Especially when you meet two people who are so perfect for one another, who are so kind, and funny and loving that you can feel that love in your own body–as if it is your own. & it’s a wonderful reminder that LOVE is the most precious gift we have on this earth.
