engagement session: vanessa & david

guest commentator: monica

crossing our fingers & sending up prayers, we insisted that the weather for vanessa & david's engagement session would be fine to photograph. and boy were our prayers answered! instead of shooting at the "tender nob" (or area between the tenderloin & nob hill, which is the term david shared with us), we decided to photograph vanessa and david's engagement session at golden gate park, specifically the awesome de young museum. (thanks, kristin, for showing us around your work to find some very cool locations the week prior.) and since they had driven the very looong & rainy trip up from sunny socal, we had to include at least a few shots of the classic san francisco "eye-treat" of the golden gate bridge. notice how vanessa's jacket even matches! although we caught some humerous moments from this hilarious couple on camera, you can still find that essence of serious commitment & love for one another in the images. cheers to you, vanessa & david!

damn eddie - those are some aggressive, modern, angular pics with some really red angry passion. it's a neat break away from your traditional engagement sweety fluffy pics. the sharp contrast with the modern art back drop of cold minimalism is great with their warm zesty passion! can i sign up for engagement pics too! i'm envious...(marge)
