COLE.AND.STEVE.::.THE.INTRODUCTION.

i love finding clients i could be friends with. in fact, that is how it should be. i want to be friends with my clients, and i love when things click.

it was just so with cole & steve. carlie & i took a break from the busyness of orange county back in january for our 6 month anniversary, and at the recommendation of the one-and-only cameron ingalls, decided to stay in san luis obispo, at a quaint european bed 'n breakfast: petit soleil.

cole happened to be the friendly face that greeted us upon check-in. upon returning to the 'real world' cole followed up and asked carlie & i to shoot her wedding in august at the dana powers house. carlie & i were stoked, and we made the trip back up to slo last week for their engagement shoot.

here are a few of my favorites, starting with a kiss in bubblegum alley [yes... the walls of this alley are completely plastered with abc bubblegum]
later that night, cole & steve took us to an awesome fusion restaurant overlooking this creek... i want more novo.


then they told us about some abandoned buildings not too far off the beaten path. my heart skipped a beat.









window light is fun.

from the outside-in.

this one takes me back to the days of pythagoras and obtuse angles.



a little slide show love...
