Laguna Beach Getting-To-Know-You Session

Oh I am SO in love with my photographer.  I knew Jessica would be amazing from her blog, so it was no real surprise when the first few pictures she posted of our getting to know you session turned out to be absolutely gorgeous!

I’ll treat to you the whole set from her blog!

I love how natural this pic is (especially the coffee, my husband is addicted to coffee):

This one just may be my favorite – the light is perfect and I actually look skinny!

I am IN LOVE with this picture – it’s absolutely the kind of pic I was looking for and it really showcases how Jessica sees potential in things so many people wouldn’t:

The teal wall against the red is stunning – I love color combos like this!

The hubby hated posing like this but I think it’s adorable:

Another one that I love – the lighting is gorgeous.

Would’ve been gorgeous if I didn’t need to lose about 40 pounds before the shoot (but I love the flare lens on the second one)!

I think this is another one of the best – it’s got a little bit of the grainy look to it that I adore:

Loving the textures on the next two:

Hubby did NOT want to lift me but it turned out cute. He does look quite pained, however!

Simply gorgeous:

    gorgeous! *crying*

  2. Love the photos! It’s fun to see the face behind the blogger! The first and last are my favorites (but the in-between are pretty sweet as well)! I love the 10 year renewal party idea! I eloped 2 years ago with my boyfriend of ten years. So when we hit 10 years it will actually be 20 together! I definitely will need an over the top AWESOME party! Can I start planning now?

  9. Those are GORGEOUS! the red in your dress looks so bold and bright, it is a great contrast with the sand and the stone in the background. How are you going to pick a few to print?!

  10. Came here via Jessica’s site. Lovely photographs, as usual! Just had to ask where you got the red dress? I am always on the hunt for a new fabulous red dress, and I love yours!

    Hi Olivia! The dress is Deletta (I might be spelling that wrong) from Anthropologie. Thanks for visiting, I love getting new readers!

  12. the weather looks perfect – you would think it was a warm summer day if you didn’t know that the shoot was in December. And that red dress is exactly the right pop of color – it looks fabulous against scott’s grey and khaki combo. wow… really, wow.

  13. Hey Ami!
    it was very cool to spot you on Jessica Claire’s Blog. She is awesome and your pictures are fab! Good luck with the “wedding”!!!
    cheers!
    Jesse and Whitney

  16. Wunderschön! :) I love these photos, they are so natural and they show a real “in love couple”!

  17. Love these images! I’ve been having some fun on your site! Jessica is awesome inside and out and she rocked these. Can’t wait to see more, and congrats!
