I rarely get to meet my couples before they sign on the dotted line, securing me as the official documenter of their wedding day. And as I stood outside the Carmel Mission, waiting for Rahul and Alexia, with no clue what they looked like, I realized that THAT is kind of amazing. People book me based on vibes felt through emails and phone calls, and those vibes have been correct 100% of the time. Never have I met with a couple for their engagement shoot and thought, “Nope. We were wrong. The vibes failed us.” Instead, I manage to book kindred spirits – good-hearted, kind people who value storytelling and genuine emotion (and a sense of humor to boot). These two were no exception.
