Sophie + Ryan are getting married next May, so we went out for a casual engagement shoot in the park to celebrate. They were so full of laughter that they made my job just about as easy as it gets... and look how completely adorable they are!

Since we took some time off from blogging while we were deep in wedding season and have been catching up on blogs and sharing all the wonderful couples we've been meeting, it figures that we are a bit behind. So we're making Goodnickels history by sharing with you an engagement session and wedding all in one fell swoop.

Marcia + Jeff were married at the San Diego Botanical Gardens in Encinitas (formally known as the Quail Botanical Gardens, a name to which I know we locals are all still attached!) with an intimate reception at Fidel's in Solana Beach, where they had their first date. Every detail was so personal, and I was honored to be a part of it all.

(Also, the wonderful Bethel was their officiant!)

While Meredith was out visiting Tim from Florida, this adorable couple decided to call us up for an engagement session. We hiked, jumped rocks, and even rope-climbed down a cliff! They were such a silly, loving couple (and completely adventurous), and we are so glad to have worked with them.

Congrats on your engagement!
