Last week, Niki and I had the amazing honor of shooting Lily and Nik’s engagement photos.  I don’t think I can fully explain how much I loved watching these two interact.  Their love for one another is so pure and so genuine and so sweet to witness.

These two lovebirds met while serving as councilors at a youth camp.  Sharing shy smiles and passing glances.  Not quite knowing what God had in store. “One week after seeing Lily, we went on our first date. Four days after that, we were officially dating and 124 days after that officially engaged! Lily is my world. God has blessed me with my heart’s desire!”

Lily and Nik took us to one of their favorite spots.  Such a gorgeous field!

BEHIND THE LENS

ABOUT Justin

I've always been drawn to all things creative, but didn't pick up a camera until my senior year in high school to document a trip my friends and I were taking to San Francisco.  I had no idea how to correctly work my camera, but instantly fell in love with the concept of capturing moments in an artistic way.  I became obsessed with photographing anything and anyone willing to get in front of my lens.  Still lifes, landscapes, pets, people.  People.  What started out as a passion for photography quickly turned into a passion for people and the love they share.  I can't put words to the feeling of capturing fleeting moments, celebratory tears, warm embraces,  or loving glances.  What I can say is how incredibly fulfilling photographing weddings all over the west coast for the past twelve  years has been.  I'm thrilled to have you here and can't wait to work with you!
