Mandy + Ryan || Engagement

Before I start this story I need to introduce Melanie. I worked with so many awesome photographers last year, Melanie of Essence Photography was one of them. I had a chance to second shoot with her on a beautiful wedding at Meadow Vista, CA(there will be more this year). She was so cool to work with. So when she approached me to shoot a wedding for her studio on one of the available dates, I couldn't be any more excited!

Mandy and Ryan are super cool, cute, down to earth couple who I had a chance to shoot with last Saturday. They are getting married in June, I'll be their wedding photographer representing Essence Photography. I was already pumped up to shoot their engagement session, after hearing more about the wedding, I can't wait for their big day to arrive.

We went to the Empire Mine State Park in Grass Valley, CA for their e-session. It was such a beautiful place! I am so glad that Mandy and Ryan chose the park for the location. We got so many great pictures. I already know that we'll go back there soon; may be next time we'll be able to find some gold too :))

Here are some teasers for Mandy and Ryan.




Mandy is so gorgeous, I had to take her single portraits -
