Amber went with her friend for karaoke night. Daniel went after work to unwind and play some darts. They ran into each other, had a few laughs and that was that. Except that Amber said, "Here's my number" before they parted ways.
That was almost 4 years ago, and Daniel and Amber are now looking forward to their October wedding. We had an enjoyable, albeit windy, engagement session in downtown Riverside on Saturday night. I'm so excited to get to be a part of their big day this fall! A sneak peek from our session::
Amber, you are so beautiful!

She had other plans--- big plans. But one night, Kierstie met Steve while hanging out with mutual friends. They chatted and laughed and thought "he/she will be a good friend". And then she called him to help her learn to play something on her guitar. And now they're getting married. And those plans? They were good ones, but not as good as what's coming to them in May.
Congratulations you two, and thanks for a wonderful engagement session on Saturday night!

1. Legoland has VIP parking for anyone who drives a Volvo. Sweet!
2. Househunting is not for the faint of heart.
3. Putting an offer in on a house is exciting and terrifying at the same time.
4. Every girl needs a weekend away with a friend occasionally.
5. Having your oldest turn six is even more unbelievable than having your oldest turn five.
6. There's a great place in Mesa, AZ called Crackers where I would love to have lunch every day.
7. When you're away from your family for a couple of days, you appreciate them so much more when you return home.
8. I Am Legend is a totally terrifying movie.
9. A sprig off of the orange tree that is bursting with blossoms will infuse a kitchen with intoxicating goodness.
10. Any engagement session that ends like this is an awesome engagement session:

The fall of 2009 is an absolute blur to me. I was expecting my 3rd child, which really just translates to: I was hugely pregnant, struggling to get myself out of bed in time to get my little man to Kindergarten on time and entertain the almost-3-year-old-girl of the house, trying to keep up with laundry and meals and soccer practice and clients and orders...
To say I slacked on my blogging duties would be a bit of an understatement. I have a number of posts to catch up on, starting with Mike & Janae, who have just moved up to Salt Lake City.
We wandered around downtown Riverside last September and had a great time in the alleys. Right near the end of our time together, we stumbled upon a fire station and took advantage of the locale (with permission, of course). Thanks, you two, for a fun afternoon and best wishes for a bright future!

(03.31.10 @ 05:39 PM)Beautiful! I love the movement the wind created in these. They are all beautiful, but the second and third photographs are my favorite. The way they are looking at eachother and the tender way the groom to be is sweeping his fiance's hair off her face...just lovely!
