I blogged these two backwards with their wedding first because I didn't even realize I never shared their gorgeous engagement pictures!!! They were out visiting from their home in Montana, so we squeezed in time for them to come up to Lake Arrowhead and explore some of my favorite spots up their while we took pictures! They brought their pups, and OH my goodness are they not just the cutest dogs ever?! LOVE the above photo with their signs around them! So so sweet!
Thanks again, Zach and Ashley for letting me document you guys, we had so much fun- as always (: -Karissa

Austin and Rachel were married on a beautiful summer day in June at the gorgeous Galway Downs, in Temecula, California. Their day was full of tiny little details that made the big moments even more beautiful. From the dress hanger that Rachel's mother made before her passing, to the custom sewn suit jacket that Austin wore and even gifted socks for Rachel and all the guys! Every detail about their day had a personal meaning and connection to them and their story. Austin and Rachel met at a young adults Bible Study group that Austin created, and they said it was pretty quickly after that when they realized their connection and their feelings for each other grew. Austin asked her to marry him at a close friend's house with their kids holding signs that said "Will you Marry me?" These two hold friends and family so dear to their hearts, and every moment leading up to and on their day was all about just that... spending time with and having a blast with their loved ones. Austin's dad, who is a pastor in Florida, officiated the ceremony for them too! It felt so raw, real, and had a beautiful personal touch to it. Their bridal party were not only one of the most fun bridal parties ever, but they all were their closest friends and siblings! I'm telling you these two care about family and loved ones. Their day reflected that, and was even more special because of that. Austin and Rachel, Taylor and I feel so honored and blessed that we were the ones you chose to document your special day. We pray and wish the very best marriage for you and a wonderful adventure! We miss you guys in Oregon, but are so excited to see where the Lord takes you. We hope to see you soon and we are always here for you guys! Praying for blessings over you! Love, the Morgans Vendor Team:

This overcast day ended up being perfect, because our session was set for 3pm... which is NOT a good time for photos normally! Plus, look how GORGEOUS Karen is, these two were so much fun, up for the adventure, and let me experiment with my BRAND NEW camera for the first time with them. I am so thankful that they were patient with me, because just look at these gorgeous photos. I'm obsessed.
The romance in these has me wanting to go out with them again for another session! Thank you so much Karen and Daniel, you two were champs, and I wish you all the best as you plan for your wedding! I hope I get to work with you again soon <3 - Karissa My little brother, Billy just married the love of his life- Baitiare. I am so so thankful to now have a sister on my side of the family! I love these two dearly, and I LOVE these photos!!! I am so thankful for a blog where I can share all of these photos in one place, because social media just doesn't let me share enough of them at once! They just got married not even a month ago, and I will be blogging those photos soon too... I will link it at the bottom of this post when it is ready. But for now, enjoy this Yorba Linda engagement session with these two love birds!
Thank you Billy and Baitiare for letting me be the one to document this season of your lives. I feel so honored, you have no idea how much it means to me that you let us be the ones documenting your most important days of your lives. We loved every minute of it! SO much fun with the Coffey family! These three kids were just the funniest! The session was full of giggles from them, and full of tons of laughter from all of us! I loved our time together, and I hope you enjoy viewing this session with me!
Thank you Coffey family for letting me capture these fun photos for you!! I hope to work with you again soon! |
