Oceanside Engagement – Brittany and Derik

HOT!  I think that sums up this engagement session from Oceanside, and no, I’m not talking about the weather!  Derik has this way of making Brittany laugh about once a minute and it is so contagious…we are lucky I even snapped any photos because I was laughing too!

Super cute!  Pretty close to the spot where Derik proposed to Brittany!  Except they were on a boat!

Look out because you might see them on the next Dancing with the Stars!

Love this!!!

Another little bit of personality incorporated into the photo shoot!  Brittany has ice skated for oh, just about 20 years and most recently for Disney on Ice!  Derik, although not from California, picked up surfing once he moved here.   LOVE it!!!

Friday’s Thoughts

When you get your photos taken, what is your expectation of how many photos you will get in return?  Ten?  Fifty?  A hundred?  Why?  Why do you have that expectation?

I love taking pictures and might give you one hundred pictures.  <smile> But in all honesty, it is all about the ONE photo for me.  When everything lines up just right and I can capture the moment completely… I love it.  My heart sings and I am happy if I get just one shot that says it all.  This last engagement shoot was amazing!  I had not only one “the ONE”, but two.

When processing the photos though, this one felt more like the “ONE”:

Many more awesome pictures to come!  But if these were the only two – it would be enough for me!
