The blog is finally back in business, and with a little bit of a facelift! Woohoo!
In addition to the blog makeover, I am also super excited to give you this adorable e-session with the fabulous Sean and Rieko! Sean is my husband’s cousin, and these two cutie pies are getting married in Hawaii NEXT WEEK! They are having a very intimate little ceremony with just a few close family members, and since we couldn’t be there, I knew I had to send them off with some amazing engagement photos to get them excited!
Rieko is actually from Japan and came here for her college education only seven years ago! Her and Sean met at Cal State Fullerton, but were friends for a while before they started dating. However, once the courting began, it didn’t take long for these two to know they were perfect for each other! By the way, how STUNNING is Rieko??? Such a true beauty.

Sean, you ain’t so bad yourself.
I was a little bummed that it was such a cloudy day when we left for the beach, but once we got down there the light was just so soft and creamy I couldn’t get enough. Sometimes the clouds can be a blessing in disquise.
Love this one.
Snuggling up to get warm after playing in the chilly water.
After the beach we headed to Laguna Canyon for some sunset photos, but as you can tell, there wasn’t much sun. Honestly, I didn’t even miss it.
This is pretty much my favorite shot EVER. Rieko, you’re are such a doll.
Congrats Sean and Rieko! I know your wedding will be incredible! We love you guys!
