kathryn and mike's engagement session

i love engagement sessions, because it's a chance to hang out with a cool couple and get to know them better prior to the wedding. and, on top of that we get some great pictures. kathryn and mike's engagement session was as good as it gets. kathryn and mike wanted the los angeles skyline as the backdrop for their e-session, so we went to the griffith park observatory. the observatory has so many sweet places to shoot, its a photographers dream. kathryn and mike started out a bit nervous about what it would be like to do a photo shoot in front of so many people, but it took them less than a minute to let their guard down. and they were awesome! at the end of the evening we we went down the hill and had a bite to eat in their neighborhood at one of the original big boy restaurants. i had multiple flashbacks to my childhood as a put down a big boy combo. i'm excited for kathryn and mike's wedding at spanish hills country club this fall!
