Broadmoor Engagement: Coéle & Andrew

Good morning!  And happy Wednesday!  You’re half way through the week and Easter is almost here. :-)  Boy, do I have a treat for you.  And no, it’s not a Cadbury Egg (those are the best aren’t they? :-).  It’s the beautiful engagement session of the lovely Coéle and Andrew.

We met up a couple of weeks ago at one of their favorite hang outs: The Broadmoor.  I’m a little bummed when I post these images because it could possibly be the last time you see these two on our blog.  We were already booked for their wedding day, but they still wanted get their engagement images done with us.  I also got to spend a little time with them when I invited them over for coffee one morning to talk about what to look for in a wedding photographer.  So fun.

These two are wonderful, wonderful people.  We met them at Elizabeth and Ryan’s wedding last summer and judging by their chemistry on the dance floor, I knew it’d only be a matter of time before Andrew proposed.  Sure enough, this spring, in front of the Disneyland castle he popped the question. :-)

Get ready for some sweet eye candy.  These two are stunning and have amazing chemistry with each other and the camera.

Can I just say that picture on the left could be one of my favorite shots that I’ve taken?  I don’t know why!  It seems so symbolic.
I call it, “American Dream.” :-)

Oh, Coéle, you are SO stunning!!

Like I was saying… stunning!

I adore you two!  Love this!

Love!


These guys are my type of people.  We finished off the evening with a glass of, not wine, but scotch at the Broadmoor bar.

I think Coéle has the prettiest back.
