UCLA Engagement photoshoot

A wonderful little surprise dropped into our mailbox this past weekend: A disc of our engagement photos from our wedding photographer Gina at Pix of Life. Our photo session took place about a month ago on the UCLA campus, which we chose because we went to school there together and we really do think our campus is pretty beautiful.

It was quite interesting to experience a different type of engagement session, especially compared to our Taiwan experience back in March. I will share more details about our very interesting and memorable Taiwanese engagement photoshoot another time but in general our session with Gina was much more relaxed and natural while our photoshoot in Taiwan was very artistic and involved-- they made us feel like models but we had to work hard! Anyways, here are a few of my favorites from our UCLA engagement session~

I made this little heart-shaped pennant banner with some patterned card stock and ribbon. It was a fun prop but quite tricky to get a proper shot when the wind picked up! We actually have another photo shoot coming up this weekend with one of our photographer friends.... so believe it or not we're not quite done yet~
