Central Coast Engagement Photos for Jackie and James

This session is near and dear to my heart. The last time this lovely lady was featured here on my blog, it was 2011, and it was for a much different reason. I just re-read that blog post, and I said the photos were for her birthday. That was mostly true, but what was also true was my sister was diagnosed with cancer earlier that year, and about to have major surgery to have it removed. No matter what the doctors say, or what kind of cancer you have…. the “C” word is scary! It certainly freaked me out a bit. It also made me appreciate a little more, and hug a little tighter. Today my sister is healthy and happy. In fact, just saying happy is bit of an understatement. She is over the moon blissfully in love, and getting married this spring! I could not be more excited to capture these central coast engagement photos for her and James. Like the awesome sister-photog that I am, we went to all their favorite places. We also climbed hills of sand, got in a freezing cold creek, we spotted poison oak (leaves of three – let it be!) … and we ended it all with two crazy dogs on the beach! Congratulations Jackie and James! It is an honor to capture the love of two people so dear to me.
