Marisa + Edward

Woodside, CA


I am thrilled to share with you the heartwarming love story of Marisa and Edward and their engagement during a trip abroad. I had the pleasure of meeting Marisa and Edward at their friend's wedding, and I remember joking with them about when it would be Edward's turn to get married. Little did I know, it would happen sooner than expected, and I was beyond excited when they reached out to me to capture their engagement session!


The couple had been together for a long time, and everyone who knew them could sense their strong connection and love for each other. It was only a matter of time before Edward would pop the question, and he chose the perfect moment to do so. During their trip to Dubai in February of this year, Edward surprised Marisa with a stunning classic oval solitaire ring with side stones on each side (scroll to the bottom to see). The proposal caught Marisa totally off guard, and she was overjoyed with emotions. She said yes of course, and the couple started planning their future together.


We had initially planned the session to take place in March, but due to the rainy season in California this year, we had to reschedule a few times. Finally, the weather cleared up, and we were able to capture many stunning photos of the couple in the beautiful Fioli Historical Garden.


Marisa and Edward are the epitome of a loving and passionate couple. Their chemistry and connection are undeniable, and it's evident that they share a deep love and respect for one another. Marisa's playful and carefree nature complemented Edward's calm and composed demeanor, creating a perfect balance between them. They were both so comfortable in front of the camera, which allowed me to capture the pure essence of their relationship. It was a joy to witness the way they interacted with each other, and their love story is truly inspiring. I feel grateful to have had the opportunity to capture their engagement session and document their love story.
