She said YES! | Redlands photographer, Engagement photos

This is my year of new adventures...Just when you think you've caught all the right moments in people's lives, you get asked to photograph a proposal!  Of course I will do it!  Kudos to the men who hire a photographer to photograph one of the biggest days of your life!  And hers!  Thats what Abe did and his beautiful girlfriend said yes!  He was so strategic about this, as he doesn't live here but we arranged everything via email, phone calls, and texts!  Yes he even text me as they were driving into Redlands to let me know what time they should be arriving to the beautiful Kimberely Crest Mansion and to let me know what they were wearing.  (remember I had never met them before).  It ran pretty smooth despite the small wedding party that showed up at the mansion about 5 minutes before my engagers.  Almost disrupted Abe's proposal location but he managed to stall so they wouldn't be in the way.  It was a hot June day and he and I were both sweating a bit because of the bridal party.  But, of course, it all worked out and I was in place as he proposed!  I was so excited for them both and couldn't wait to meet them after taking the pictures.  Congratulations Abe and Farnaz!!  And thank you for letting me be apart of this incredible moment!
