This engagement session rocked my world. Peter is obsessed with dinosaurs and fish, so they chose to go to the Cerritos Library since it has a t-rex replica and an aquarium! IN THE LIBRARY!! This was the most exploratory, experiential library I've ever been to. Who knew that a library could have auras of an aquarium, art gallery, space museum, dinosaur museum, and zen garden all in one?
We started out at the zen sculpture garden, and I found this leaf just sitting on a bench.

i told Kat to be a Lands End model, the most random directive i've ever given,
and she did this brilliant move:
i think the first polaroid encompasses Peter's version of heaven.
and i think this picture encompasses my version of LOVE IT! (Peter pointed out that I say love it after just about every picture, which #1- made me self conscious and #2- is true.)
Kat is an actress, Peter's teaches debate, and the spectrum of their expressions caused me to do my first 3 hour engagement session. i couldn't stop shooting. we even had to have a coffee break. (oh, DARN.)
pretty pretty pretty. LOVE IT.....................................................................!!
and we ended with the fish!
I think that those through the dinosaur images have forever changed me.
Kat and Peter----- love it, love it, andddd love it.
