Chris & Brea (Engagements, Avila Beach CA)

We started out the day at Avila Beach, which when we got there we decided that it was much to windy and crowed. We wondered a bit till we decided to shoot in a more secluded area. We spotted the perfect place from the road, we all knew at the same moment that it was going to be the spot. This field of yellow flowers made the perfect backdrop for our hang out. Chris and I have been friends for quite a long time, but I've know Brea even longer. Brea and I had a class together, so it really cool to see that she's going to marry the love of her life from high school. Their relationship is amazing. It was a honer to be able to capture this moment for them.







My brother Cameron did a little shooting as well. He took the above image. Not bad. Not bad at all.



Brea insisted on just a few photos at the beach, so we headed to port San Luis which was close by. Chirs is a surf photographer, who has had his work published in almost every surf magazine out there it seems like. He won the first annual follow the light surf photography award in October of last year. View the artical here.
His work can be seen in Transworld Surf and Waveriders Gallery. He's been working on a personal project these past few months called the California Book Project. (sorry about so many links in one place, I'm just really excited about what he's been up to)
