Happy Monday loves!  I thought I’d kick off the week by sharing a selection of the black and white shots from our engagement shoot with Cooper Carras.  They were snapped at both Cooper’s awesome studio and on location at the charming Pelican Inn in Muir Beach.  The second batch is much more colorful and lovey-dovey (I’ll post it tomorrow…), but I adore these for their timelessness (the first shot made us feel so JFK and Jackie!) and their editorial vibe.  A huge thank you goes out to Cooper and his partner Ali for making us feel like supermodels!  I was so nervous at first, but we wound up having too much fun.

P.S. Isn’t my hubby handsome?  He is going to be so embarrassed I’m sharing these with the entire world ; )
