i rolled down the windows, turned off the ignition, and slowly rapped the steering wheel to the melodic tune. as the radio continued singing, i sat parked under the trees of temescal gateway park, nestled in the santa monica mountains. the marine layer crept into the canyon slowly, and gave off not only a wonderful blanket of soft light, but a calming ambience.so, in my parking spot, i waited for ashley and cory to arrive and begin their engagement shoot.
when they pulled up in their volkswagen, though having already won a place in my heart after our initial meeting, ashley and cory re-secured my affinity for their story. any volkswagen fan is a fan of mine.
the shoot was epic. our time was splendid. and ashley, cory, and i hope you enjoy the photos.i can’t wait for the wedding day next summer, at which, i recently discovered, gabriel.ryan.photographers. will be but a small part of an all-star crew, to include lindye galloway at the helm, and eric trine mixing the beats. we can’t wait!
