Talk about two cool and unique cats in Brenda and Joel. My photography senses lit up when they told me they wanted their e-session at a skate park. I just love how B + J took my theme of “all about you” to a whole new level, incorporating places, outfits, and style that fit their personality for each other so well. Joel grew up in Southern California and has a huge passion for skating; Brenda grew up as a small town girl in Minnesota. So it just made perfect sense to start their e-session at a skate park down in Mission Viejo and end the day walking through the grassy-like fields, which reminded Brenda of her place back home. We even stopped by the library to get some dorky yet fun shots :).

Both were troopers for putting up with the heat and willing to try out different “poses and looks”; they even brought a few of their own. Major kudos to Joel for pulling off some serious killer tricks while sporting a business tie and shirt. After getting to know B + J better and shooting their e-session, I know their wedding at Rancho Capistrano in October will be a blast. I seriously can’t wait!
