One of the many things I love about photographing weddings is watching a couple’s relationships grow. When Aren and I met up last September, he could only tell me about his fiancée, Trina in Australia. After an unbearably long time on different continents and a small fortune in long distance phone calls and text messages, Trina came back here. Aren nearly burst with excitement.

They had gotten engaged on the beach here in California, so they wanted to do their engagement photos there too. Have you seen a couple happier to be together?

Aren and Trina, it’s been so fun hearing how God has deepened your love for each other over the months, and watching your patience and care for each other. I am really looking forward to your wedding in July!
