    Santa Cruz Engagement Session at Wilder Ranch with Taryn & Michael

    A few weeks ago I got photograph Taryn and Michael's Engagement session in Santa Cruz at Wilder Ranch. Taryn is also a photographer and also went to San Jose State. It's always an honor when another photographer chooses you to be the photographer at their wedding.

    We had a fun time except for the end when we found that both of our windows were broken in our cars. The crooks didn't even steal anything just broke our windows. They must have thought we were stupid enough to leave something behind hidden under the seats. It's just a bummer when you come back to your car to find your window broken. Thank god we left nothing valuable on the seats or in the car. Anyways enough with the down side of having your car broken into when the images that I captured came out so great:)
