This engagement shoot was not for the weak, I’ll tell you that. Hiking up to the top of Rattlesnake Ridge with all my camera gear on me was definitely one sweaty mess. Very attractive. But I’m glad I wasn’t the only one…while Erika hiked the entire thing in her cute dress, no sweat to be found…Jake was probably sweating just as much as me haha. These two were amazing troopers! They didn’t complain once and when we got to the top, we knew the shoot was going to be amazing. <\/p>\n

I adore these two and their love story. They truly are some of the sweetest souls and I feel very lucky that they’ve put so much trust in me to capture their engagement as well as their wedding. You may recognize some similar areas from this shoot that I’ve shot at before, like from my “Resonate<\/a>” shoot…but this was the first time ever making the trek up to the very top! Totally worth it.<\/p>\n

\/\/ I’m finally back in New York from lots of back and forth travel. I think it’s starting to actually sink in that I “live” here now. I won’t be back to the west coast for quite awhile so it’s time to start planting some roots here and making this home for awhile. I do love New York…so very much. The energy here is amazing and the people I’ve already met are so lovely. I’m plugged in at an awesome church that I’m excited to get involved in. My roommates are the best, I don’t know how the heck I got so lucky finding them through craigslist. The weather is brutal right now, a whole 3 degrees. Ouch. I’ve got a veeeery exciting new business venture that is currently in the works and I can’t wait to share. I’ll give you a hint though…city tour. I finally have some time to sit down and plan out some personal projects and get back into fashion a bit more. And last but not least, I’ve been gaining some traction on my travel and lifestyle blog, The Top Knot<\/a> and I couldn’t be happier. I love having a place to blog about anything and everything.
