Sarah and Nathan met through mutual friends, had an instant connection, went on their first date and now here we are photographing their engagement session! These two are really adorable, playful and giggly together. They snuggled and smooched and you’d never guess it was nearly 100 degrees and hot and sweaty!

Sarah wore this gorgeous emerald green strappy gown which went perfectly with the woodsy type backdrop. Our skies are smoky this Summer but Northern California is still gorgeous. Castle Lake is one of my favorite spots around here and is beautiful any time of year.

I think Billy, the adorable pup, really stole the show though. She had lots of sniffin’ to do and creeped into many of the photos which is exactly how I prefer it. I am so excited for Sarah & Nathan’s Fall wedding where it’ll be cooler and hopefully no longer smoky! Congrats to these lovely people!
