Roxana and Mauricio

Wednesday, October 14, 2009 Posted in Engagement

One of the funnest engagement sessions I’ve had the pleasure of doing. Right off the bat they said they wanted something different from the typical engagement session and I said, “I’m your man”. These two were such a unique, fun loving couple that I really thought we were a good fit for their photography.

As you can tell by the “guns”, Mauricio is a personal fitness instructor and a U.S. Marine. Roxana and Mauricio met while working out and met via friends who also work out together, so I felt really out of shape hanging out with this group.

For a while now, I’ve been wanting to do a “wet” engagement session, but wasn’t sure what couple would be up for it. Roxana and Mauricio quickly volunteered for the adventure. I love shooting in challenging environments and this was a blast.

Thank you Roxana and Mauricio for letting me play with the water. We look forward to your wedding.
