I was stoked when Kara contacted me on Myspace. Their wedding isn’t until 2010, but they were anxious to get their engagement photos taken because Adam’s job is taking them all the way across the country in December!
Their relationship started and grew in San Diego and like the old saying…Home is where the Heart is! We met at the Old Pt. Loma Lighthouse in the Cabrillo National Park. I explained to them that they may feel a little uncomfortable in front of the camera, but it turns out that the joke was on me!
This was one of the first few frames that I shot!
Loving this staircase in the old Lighthouse!
I just adore this shot of Kara. She is probably laughing at me. She did that alot. Some people think I’m funny. Or maybe she was just being nice. 😉
I have too many favorites from today. But this may top my list.
After the Lighthouse, we headed to a little secluded beach off of Rosecrans where Adam used to live.
Adam and Kara – Good luck with your move to the East Coast! I hope wedding planning goes smoothly out there and I know your wedding day will be full of love and happiness – it exudes from both of you!
XOXO, M
Wow this is a wonderful series and a stunning couple. She has a smile that could light a lighthouse. More great work from MMP

Cute couple. I love Cabrillo. Great lighthouse shots! 🙂

I love the shot on the stairs, the lines in the wall frame them perfectly.
Awesome for them that they got to use your mad skills before he left. Excellent job, Melissa!

These are awesome Mel!
Melissa – thanks so much for the encouragement on my blog! I wondered about the lighting on that first pic (of my daughter Dani) – if it was too orange or just right. I love your photography and look at your blog all the time. You are an inspiration!
