Thirty minutes later in another part of town:

James hails from Scotland, and I might have asked him to talk a lot simply to hear him speak.
Rosie resides in Chicago, where she owns and runs her own clothing boutique, named Roslyn.
Rosie is good friends with a client turned friend, Michelle, who is one of the women I went to Thailand with. I also photographed her gorgeous pregnant belly, pre Thailand.
(Fun connection: Rosie is Thai and the blanket they are making out on is Thai. Bought it on my trip.)
I photographed Rosie, Michelle, and their friend Amy while they were on a Los Angeles girls weekend.
Rosie came back to me for her engagement session with her James.

We started in the sun and headed to the beach where it was locked in with cloud cover. And dark. Very dark. I was a little worried, but I think the end results were good. They got a mix of sunny and happy along with moody and sexy.

I hope I get to photograph their babies.
