Jeff and I photographed Chris and Sarah’s wedding in downtown San Diego one year ago, and their First Look at the Horton Grand Hotel was one of those amazing First Looks where all of us burst into tears together! In fact, it still sticks in our hearts as a First Look that we’ll never forget! These two felt so lucky to have found one another, and Jeff and I got to share in an insanely meaningful life moment that will forever stand as a “pillar memory” within their beautiful love story – and in our photography!

So when the time came for their one year anniversary, Chris decided to surprise his wifey with an Anniversary Session with us at the very same place that we did their First Look. #supessweet

Chris told Sarah that they were going on a special anniversary date in downtown, and when he walked Sarah through the hotel and she turned the corner to see us, she was so surprised that she burst into tears! But then again, so did Jeff and I!

These two mean so much to us, and we just can’t believe that we get to create such special memories for them in their marriage. This session brought so much joy to our hearts, and we loved creating such classic images of these two. Because we’ve photographed them so much already, they were completely comfortable in front of our cameras, and I think we were able to capture the most beautiful and elegant photos yet! (PS I can’t get enough of Sarah’s dress – LOVE.)

Chris and Sarah: We absolutely ADORE you both, and we just can’t believe how special you both have become to us! We are honored call you friends, and we so look forward making many many more special memories together! Here’s to many more anniversaries to come!

Hugs,
Erin
