Juli and John's engagement session

I've known Juli for almost 3 years-- and I couldn't be more excited about her recent engagement. John is perfect for her, and it was fun to get to know the guy she's been talking about for the past year!

We kept it simple, and did their engagement session at a local park in La Mirada. It was rainy, muddy, and I was surprised (and relieved) that none of us fell down...
I love that Juli and John are such good friends
they are so perfectly gorgeous in this photo.
i love john's vest. he got it at a thrift shop for $5.
now that's a man that i appreciate.
this one gives me an epic feeling
:) they were fun.
okay, this is a possible favorite. i love it.
the leaves! the people!
glowing,
this is one of my new favorite angles. so cute.
ooooooooooo
its fun to me that the tree wraps around them.
and even more fun, is the way that juli glows around john.
i'm so glad they're getting married :)
look at them!
to the two J's.
you are truly beautiful people.

I especially love the one they are walking looking down, and the new angle.

They are my favorite, and I agree, these are your best ever Shan!

So beautiful Julie and John!

Wonderful pictures, Shannon. We are both totally stoked about the wedding.
Our families loved them, too. You are great, you know that?
