Anna & Josh - Albuquerque, NM Engagement Photographer

I love doing engagement sessions - I can daydream about planning another wedding: what dress I would pick, which flowers I would carry and what rings I would hope to get from my handsome fiance down on one knee. But looking back, I really wouldn't change anything. Things were perfect - even down to me having the wrong veil from the store, driving myself to get my makeup done and having a friend do my hair.

Knowing that those decisions (and plenty of other past ones) have led me to where I am now makes hindsight a little less 20/20. :)

So last Saturday I met another bride-to-be and her handsome fiance as well. As I mentioned, engagement sessions take me back to a past time in my life and I LOVE seeing these couples very in the moment, making decisions for a day that they will always remember. It makes me heart happy knowing there will be another couple out there, in years, reminiscing about their past when right here and now, it's their future together. I love hearing stories about what they are planning, what colors they've chosen... and knowing I am a part of those decisions too. I hope they know how special they are to me in that aspect as well. We've all got a future we're working towards, right?

Josh and Anna - Have a glorious, gorgeous and joyful wedding where your personalities shine and your love is a centerpiece. I cannot wait to see you guys again and capture another piece of your "now"!
