KHARA.JAKE.ENGAGEMENT.

we hit it off at one of my favorite spots, the gypsy den, a quaint bohemian cafe ironically juxtaposed just a few blocks from the shopping mecca known as south coast plaza. and we just had a little chat. he traced her words with his gaze, and she returned a look in adoration. with a passionate whirlwind of a story, it is no wonder that i was drawn in by khara & jake.

he likes soccer, she likes soccer. and mom set them up. they met just recently, but love wastes no time with these two, and if you didn't know their time-line, you would assume they were high school sweethearts. we ended our time at the gypsy den, spinning one idea after another, stoked for our next meeting.

khara & jake came prepared for our engagement session on friday, and we had a great time just hanging out down at the balboa penninsula. we learned a lot about jake & khara, and i can't wait for their wedding next march!

thank you so much for inviting me into the preface of what i believe to be an epic story. here are some of my favorites... and make sure to check out the link to khara & jake's slide show below.

  1. These are really great pictures. I've been reading your mom's blog about Courtney and your family for some time now. I became a fan of Jasmine Star's when your mom posted your engagement session on her blog. I then was linked to your blog from J*s! Anyway, fabulous shots. Really, great. Keep it up!
