    Encinitas Engagement Session (Haley & Chase)

    March 15, 2010

    I loved doing this great couples engagement photos in Encinitas. Haley and Chase made the trek from Provo to California for their engagement session. Theirs is one of the many shoots Nate Pickett of NP Films and I did while we were there last month. We scored with these beautiful fields of flowers. It was the exact look Haley had mentioned when we first talked about her engagements. Their wedding will be in Las Vegas… maybe not as green, but with these two, for sure tons of fun!

We are going to be there for most of the month of August (excluding the first week) So if you are going to be in the are and would like some pictures please give us a buzz! We’d love to hear…
