Star Wars vs Star Trek Comic Book Shop Geek Engagement

Yay! Amy & Thom's  gorgeously, geeky engagement session was featured on When Geeks Wed. To see the post, go here. I've posted a few (well, a lot cause I love so many) of my favorites here as well.

Needless to say, I had a phaser blast of a good time shooting these two powerhouse geeks in love. I have been a fan of Amy's blog Geek With Curves for a few years now. So, when she asked me to do a photo shoot of her and her talented comic book writer fiancé, Thomas Zahler of Love and Capes fame, I jumped at the chance. We brainstormed a couple of locations, like possibly Disneyland, and ulitmately came up with a most awesome location of the House of Secrets comic book shop in Burbank.

I knew that Amy was a big Star Wars fan, but when I found out Thom is a Trekkie/Trekker I got a little more excited, as I am more of a Trek fan myself. Then, when I was told there would be phasers and lightsabers involved, I got even more excited. It was fun to play up the whole Star Trek vs Star Wars angle, but all-in-all GEEK LOVE conquers all.

Congratulations to Amy & Thom on their engagement! LLAP, MTFBWY & XO Rachel

Amy is stunning in her TARDIS blue dress from Pin-Up Clothing complete with TARDIS necklace.

She incorporated some Doctor Who as Thom proposed to her in front of the TARDIS at Clockwork Couture. Now what girl could have resisted that?

Jackie & Jon :: A La Habra Engagement Session

At our initial meeting over coffee and tea, Jackie and Jon mentioned something about being awkward in front of a camera. In my experience, whenever a couple says this it ALWAYS turns out quite the opposite. Just look at these two. So cute! I think the main ingredients to a successful engagement session is to just have a blast and remember why we are here together in the first place. It's all about the love, people! And boy did Jackie and Jon let their love shine through. It didn't hurt that they chose a a place that fit them, as they are nature enthusiasts, and had gorgeous light. Can't wait for the wedding in August.

Congratulations on your engagement, Jackie & Jon! On to the photos...
