I first had the pleasure of meeting these two beautiful people on a rainy day back in November.  Rob had come along on the hour and a half drive to where we were meeting and as it rained outside the cafe we were able to sit and spend a full two hours getting to know Hannah and Jeff and hear their story.

I soon gathered that Hannah was a savvy DIY bride when she mentioned she owns her own Etsy shop and then let me see some of her work!

I thrive on creativity and seeing creativity in others never fails to inspire me.  I’m ecstatic to attend their wedding this fall.  She shared some of her vision of what her plans are for the theme and details of the wedding and I can’t wait to see and capture them.

Here are a few shots from Hannah and Jeff’s mini engagement session that took place in Santa Cruz.   Much like that day back in November the sky was gray and ended up giving us some rain but we were able to come away with some great stuff regardless!

Enjoy 🙂

First shot of the day. Smiles and laughter.. my job here is done. 😀

We managed to escape the rain underneath the boardwalk..   I love the light and mood here.
