Bree + Michael’s Engagement Session – I have a good feeling Ms. Bree is reading this well before I let her know hers and Michael’s sneak peak e-session photos are up ;). It’s because she’s just that cool! Kinda like the coolness of meeting at Downey High and being together since :). Bree and Michael apparently hung out around the same area in high school but never really saw each other, that is until Michael got Bree’s number through one of her friends (or at least that’s how the story went :P).

I’d only met Bree (and her absolutely adorable 2+ year old son Maximus) when we had the client meeting, so the e-session was a chance to meet her fiance Michael too! As tough, athletic, and strong as Michael is on the outside, he is as kind, thoughtful, and loving on the inside. I can totally see why Bree found her perfect guy in him :).

We strolled around Downtown LA, their alma mater stomping grounds at Downey High (where young Max joined us), and finished the session at my soon-to-be-new-hood-but-have-been-going-there-practically-every-week-place Long Beach! I can’t thank Bree and Michael enough for being so patient with me on Saturday and more so choosing me as their photographer. Can’t wait for their wedding this coming April at The Roosevelt Hotel, so ready to score a touchdown with their photos like the SF 49ers ;). Special thanks to AVIA Hotel for allowing us to shoot in there, great place to stay and hang out if you’re in the Long Beach area!
