Dawn and Kevin: Engagement

I have known Kevin and Dawn since the beginning of their relationship. They met at One Voice Church on the praise and worship team, where I attend. As I prepared for their shoot, I tried to think about them and who they are. They are such fun and eclectic couple that we did not even get to do all of the things I imagined for them. Here is a sneak peak at their engagement session. We started at Fuller Seminary where did some more formal portraits. There is a beautiful prayer garden and eloquent architecture on Fullers campus. We intended on doing a photo with a beautiful piano, since Dawn is a pianist and teacher, but the building was locked..booo! Instead we used the bench in front. Next, we moved on the the Rialto theater in South Pasadena. It is a vintage looking building that used to be a theater. Since Kevin has his hands in the movie industry and that is something they enjoy doing together, we thought that would be fun. The last place we stopped was the Fair Oaks pharmacy for some 50's inspired soda fountain shots.
