engaged! jill and arne




we went back and forth last weekend--do we take the pictures now with the gloomy may gray skies? or do we wait until its nicer out, so jill and arne won't be freezing on the beach? we decided to take our chances with the gray skies and wind, and we got some very cool and very dramatic un-san diego beach shots.

when we first met jill and arne, the starbucks we planned to meet at was packed, so we headed over to carls' jr. james and i were a little nervous about the message this would send, but they were great, didn't mind at all, so we knew we could have some fun with these two.

we started out in la jolla village, and walked around a bit before moving onto la valencia hotel.




there are these cool cows all around la jolla...












jill has such a great smile and laugh, we made her keep showing us all afternoon...







there is this AMAZING candy shop in la jolla--powell's sweet shoppe--they have tons of cool candy, a gelato bar, and old style sodas.




next it was down to the beach, where we hoped to get some cool splashing waves. we waited and waited until finally...woo-hoo!!!







a great simple portrait...
















jill and arne, thanks for braving the chilly weather and for a great engagement session. we are looking forward to your wedding later this year
