Michael+Christina Engagement
Michael and Christina met me the other day to talk about their wedding coming up very soon in August. I think I speak for all three of us…we are excited (I think they may be a bit more excited, but hey, photographers can have fun, too!).
We got to know one another, meeting at Starbuck’s on the Country Club Plaza and then meandering around exploring and having a good ol’ time. I hope the pictures show it. Let me know what you think!
Normally, I wouldn’t post a sultry pic like this first, but this was the first shot out of the camera! Hot!
Sticking out tongues!
His killer blue eyes make for wicked black & whites.
Hot!
Running!
Follow the arrows, bro. Follow the arrows.
Even their backsides are cute. It makes me sick. 
As an experiment: I purchased a cool texture of iStockphoto and did some playing around. What do you think?

I am so proud of you, Dus. I LOVE the ones where he has hoisted himself up between 2 walls, and also the tile one where they are sitting…you are so meant for this wedding stuff, dude!!!
Am I crazy or does he totally look like Breckin Meyer???

Gosh, you all are making my day! Thanks so much for the feedback!
Shannon - Thank you. They were a cute, fun, hot, and bautiful couple. It wasn’t hard to take pics of them.
Jan - I didn’t realize I posted so many! Goodness, sorry. lol!
14 & 16 were my favorites, too.
Kate - That was totally his idea. I had him climbing all around and he was resting there. I made him stay there for about 30 frames!
Jasmine* - Thanks!
Bobbi+ - You inspired me today, so it cuts both ways, yo!
I am very new to all of this, with only shooting a couple weddings and this was my very first engagement shoot. Thank you for the kind words.
