I am extremely late in posting these pictures--it's been such a busy past couple of months! Our photographers for the wedding, Bryan & Vita Hewitt of Hewitt Photography came down to the South Bay to take our engagement pictures at Santa Clara University. Since we aren't getting married at the Mission Church, I felt like it was only appropriate to take our engagement pictures in the Mission Gardens. We thought ahead and brought some props and new outfits and overall really enjoyed our time with the photographers.
Okay, so we showed that to our photographer and they totally knew what we were talking about and helped us try and recreate it in our own way.
We did a couple different outfit changes and went to several spots around the Mission Church and Mission Garden area. Time flies when you're having fun because I could have thought of at least 10 other places on campus that would be awesome photo ops.
We were a little stiff at first, but it was such good practice for the big day. I'm glad that we worked well with our super laid back photographers. The one thing I noticed was that they weren't "trigger happy" which really made me nervous at first. I wanted them to take a BUNCH of pictures (like I do because I'm an amateur) so that there would be a lot to pick from. Overall I'm pretty satisfied with the photos we got, but I actually wish there were even MORE shots to look at. (I'm a picture-holic.) I have no doubt that with just a little bit of that feedback and the list of pictures that we want to be taken on the day of the wedding, we will have wonderful pictures!
