Kirsten and Julian got married today, so I thought it was only fitting to post a few of their engagement photos as a last hurrah before I left for WPPI and as a congratulations from me to this lovely couple. I got to know Kirsten through my good friend Lori a little over a year ago and I will never forget my first impression of her. She was dressed in the most perfect “indie” classy, hippie dress with her vibrant perfectly coiffed hair and those blue/green eyes, and when she talked she was even more warm and lovely than I thought at first glance. We were able to work together on a wedding last year (she’s also a photographer) and I’ve enjoyed keeping up with her from time to time on Facebook… don’t you love all the connections we get to make in this modern world?
Julian and I met for the first time at the session, and to see his soul deep happy personality and the way that Kirsten brings a twinkle to his eye was simply heartwarming. I can tell that Julian loves Kirsten just the way she needs to be loved… I know that feeling in my own marriage and it’s really one of my favorite things about lifelong partnership.
Here’s to a lifetime Julian and Kirsten!


























Beautiful session, Kina! I love the photo where she’s got her arms around him and he’s picking her up. So cute!
Thx Serena! Oddly enough… that was one of my favorites from the entire session too! Candid moments are fun:)
