Pacifica, CA photographs

Brad and I FINALLY got some couple pictures together! The last time we got our picture taken by a photographer was our wedding. Three years... geez, talk about procrastination.

I've been wanting to do this forever and I was going to have my former roomate take pictures in Utah last year, but due to me getting sick that didn't happen. Then we came home and I looked disgusting due to the weight loss. Call me weird or normal, but I thought I would want to look a bit healthier before we got our pictures taken. The pictures are not very normal because I didn't want to be realy "posey" (not a real word, I'm sure), but I did want to not care how affectionate we were.

We did decide that we were going to have our pictures taken in two different locations- one was the ocean, next up is the foothills. Silly reason, but I want my hair straight in some photos and that just CANNOT happen when I go to the beach... so these are pictures with my hair curly! We got our good friend, Christina Brooksby, to take these ones. She also took our wedding pictures and she is a great photographer.

I did some research for beaches because I didn't want to go to a super busy beach where we wouldn't be able to get just us in the pictures. I decided on Pacifica, CA, and am really happy I did. Although, I wasn't so sure when we got there because the waves were HUGE!! At least 7-8 feet high and completely dangerous. They were crashing over the sea walls and they had to close their pier off... which I wasn't happy about because I wanted a picture on it. Oh well. :) So here are a few of our pictures in Pacifica. They haven't been altered yet, so I'll get more up later when they are all more finished. This is just a slight preview.
