Venice Beach Engagement Photography – Steph and Bobby

when the random boy walked up to steph that day on the beach and ever-so-innocently invited her to play a little smash ball with him, and a ‘yeah… sure’ slipped out of her lips, she surprised even herself with the response and had no idea that a few years later that random boy on the beach with the smash ball would be her husband.

but then again, the obvious story is never quite as exciting, and steph and bobby’s story is definitely an exciting one.

smash ball led to the first date… the first, to a second… and on and on, until steph and bobby found themselves ready to start their life together as man and wife.

when steph called us up and mentioned that she plans parties for a living… like legitimate academy-awards-after-parties, i realized that the bar would be set high, and we can’t wait for their big day at calamigos later this summer. for now, you’ll have to enjoy a few photos of this incredible couple, all within walking distance from their ocean-view apartment in venice beach, california.

A Barnyard Wedding – Katie and Steven

they met in college and for both katie and steven’s parents, it was literally an answer to prayer.

at the reception, katie’s mom thanked steven’s parents [rightfully] for raising such an incredible young man, and then shared how she had been praying for years, for the man that would one day marry her little girl. on that day, yes, katie and steven made their vows to one another and began their life as husband and wife. but on that day, God’s faithfulness is what shone thru more than anything else.

it feels like it has been a long time coming, and after their engagement shoot last year, i only got more excited for the bog day, having seen just a glimpse into their story. and now, i couldn’t be happier to share the start of something incredible; katie and steven’s life together.

here’s to a long and full life for two people that deserve it whole-heatedly!
