Samantha and Jake are getting married at the Hard Rock Hotel at Universal, so we all agreed on doing their engagement session at Loews Portofino Bay Hotel next door. We really loved shooting there and had fun finding new favorite hidden spots around the resort. :)
Upon our arrival, Nate and I were greeted by Steve.
Sam showed up looking like she walked out of the pages of In Style Magazine! :)
One of my favorite things about this job is hearing all the fun stories about how couples meet and get engaged. Their story was truly one of my favorites- They were on vacation when the sun began to set and Jake decided it was the perfect time to pop the question. He handed his camera off to a passer-by to take a photo of the moment. Jake proposed, Sam said yes, of course… But Jake later learned the man he handed his camera to was about to propose to his girlfriend! Jake totally threw him off, but he says all is well- They’re Facebook friends now. :)
Yes, they’re this adorable in person! :)
My favorite. :)
Sam’s cute idea! :)
“It’s all about the ring.” Love it! Sam and Jake, we can’t wait to see y’all sooooooon! :)
