Associate Melodee: Hugo + Leticia's Engagements {Paso Robles}

Hugo and Leticia didn't let a little traffic stop their engagements sessions. After a brief delay, they arrived ready to have some fun. Instantly they feel into each others arms and we began to capture their sweet love on film. Hugo and Leticia are easy to photograph because they laugh and snuggle. Two things that bring "awe" to photos. Well, that and the amazing light streaming thru the oaks of Paso Robls. We then switched gears to finish up our session downtown. I quickly discovered it doesn't matter if they are standing in front of majestic oaks or a back alley ..These two are in love and gorgeous!

Associate Melodee: DaSilva Family {Paso Robles}

Take one super cute toddler dressed like a teddy bear and add two beautiful parents and you get some amazing photos! Ross and Jennifer worked really hard for these photos. As many parents know, toddlers move and Tyler was no exception. He is active, happy and always moving to the next adventure. We just followed his lead. We let him climb, throw rocks in the creek and explore. In return Tyler gave us some really sweet moments and smiles. Thanks so much DaSilva family for allowing me to capture this sweet stage in life.

Associate Melodee: Jakob & Amy Engagements {SLO Creek}

Oh my word this couple is cute! What a pleasure to spend a beautiful day with Jakob and Amy capturing their sweet love. Watching them laugh, talk, cuddle, and just 'be' together reminded me just how sweet love can be. And their photos reflect just how beautiful young love can be. I feel lucky to be apart of their wedding this spring. Jakob and Amy, enjoy every moment of your engagement.

Associate Melodee: John & Marjorie Hamon {Paso Robles}

If you live in our small town of Paso Robles, then you know John and Marjorie Hamon. They were honored as the "2014 Roblans of the Year." They are well loved and respected not only in our community but in their family. It was my pleasure to capture a few moments with their family before the big celebration. As I watched them interact with each other, I was reminded that the real honor was right here standing underneath the oak tree. Family. There is no sweeter gift than your family coming together to stand behind you and celebrate you. And John and Marjorie are blessed with a wonderful family that does just that. Thank you John and Marjorie for all you do for this community and for your family. Congrats on the honor of being the "2014 Roblans of the Year!"

Associate Melodee: Layne + Shannon's Engagements

Not even the looming rain clouds and cold weather could rattle this cool easy going couple. I adore Layne and Shannon. They are such a sweet couple who happen to be beautiful both inside and out. Edna Valley took our breath away with its vivid emerald beauty making it a surreal backdrop for these love birds. We explored and shot until literally it started raining. Rain on your engagements has to be good luck right? I say "Yes!" Congratulations Layne and Shannon, I can't wait for capture your wedding day! Cheers!
