-Jerry&Danielle-

This one had me nervous, you see this was Danielle's Engagement Session and Danielle herself is this fierce and creative photographer who's photography and talent I admire and find inspiration from on a continuous level. Danielle and I met at a wedding last year when we both gushed over our love for wedding photography and worked together side by side for the first time, yet it did not feel like our first meeting or our first time working together, we were instant friends/co-workers. I remember watching her that day, she was enthusiastic, passionate, direct, creative and most importantly 100% in her element, what I did not know that day is that Danielle brings all those character traits to all she does, not just her fabulous photography work. She is a driven, determined, spirited person with the sweetest soul . So when I found out I would be the one she trusted to photograph her most special day....well I had some big shoes to fill to photograph a woman and the love of her life, a woman who I respect and admire as she stands behind and in front of the lens. 


​

​I remember when Danielle spoke of her Jerry, there was so much joy and admiration in her as she praised the man who her heart belongs to. Danielle is this colorful and joyful young woman who has lived a life that would challenge most way beyond her years, and Jerry well Jerry has been there since day one, literally. Jerry&Danielle's story began in College, when Danielle was injured in a soft ball accident, young and surrounded by students and friends who did not own a car and needing to go to the hospital, the only thing to do was to call on Jerry, a student who Danielle did not know but who had a car (you know just your everyday modern day fairytale knight) ....and just like that it began. They did not know one another, but that was in the fine print, for what was ahead was the real story, the story were Jerry never left her side ever again.
Jerry was everything I was expecting upon meeting him, he was every detail that Danielle had so passionately expressed. Jerry is the real life gentle giant, he is kind, tender and 100% infatuated with that girl he drove to the hospital all those years ago. Jerry works effortlessly with young youth and children helping them in every aspect of their lives possible, providing inspiration and a positive alternative path for their future. Jerry is the true definition of a bright light walking silently among us, all rolled up in this strong build man who's arms Danielle calls home. Jerry&Danielle are the exact balance of one another, opposite but the same in the way they love one another.
Their engagement session was set in Davis, California but it might as well have been ripped straight out of a page of the book of Narnia. The light glittered through the tall Redwood trees, the grass and all its plants were saturated with springs green and luscious kiss, and the usually clear river running through was painted the most serene emerald shade of any precious stone. We walked from one dreamy spot to the next documenting these two young people. It was a fairytale setting for two hearts who I hope live out their forever as if their story is a love filled tale that would make even the magic of Narnia jealous.
