Chico California Engagement Photographer: Augie + Laura

Laura+ Augie

Halloween shenanigans always make for fun memories.  Sometime the best memories are made.  This happens to be the setting of Laura and Augie’s story.  Laura came to a party hosted by her co-worker.  She noticed Augie from the moment she walked in.  Augie is a quiet guy but Laura was drawn to him, he has a contagious smile with dimples she adores.  She spent the evening flirting with him and at the end of the evening they shared a super awkward side hug that they still joke about today. 

After a few days Laura kept thinking about Augie and asked her co-worker to pass along her phone number to him.  With little delay, Augie texted Laura that night and asked her out on a date.  This date lead to many like it.  Laura loves sharing time with Augie they enjoy playing catch and talking. A perfect date for Laura would be a Giant’s or A’s game at Oracle park and then Pizza afterwards.

The first time Laura told Augie she loved him was when he had driven her to the airport.  She was about to have a girls trip and she felt like it was a perfect time.  She was so nervous the whole drive to the airport,  meanwhile he thought it was the flight she was nervous for.  When she finally got the nerve to speak those three words, Augie’s face lit up.  She says seeing his happiness is something she will never forget. 

Augie is often thinking about their future.  Laura loves hearing about all the ways he plans and dreams about their life together.  Laura looks forward to eventually having a family and raising kids together.  She knows Augie is going to be and amazing dad and looks forward to that adventure with him. 

During this session you could see this loving connection where they are both so happy to be in each other’s arms.  The cuddles, and giggles were so genuine and sweet. I loved that they had a mini tailgate sporting their team’s colors and enjoying a few Sierra Nevada Brewery’s Hazy Little Things.  Laura and Augie share a little competitive banter over their teams but they never let it be too serious.  You can see just how much these two complete each other.  They are best friends, and what better way to spend the rest of your life?

Jena and I left the session so excited about the time we spent and we are looking forward to capturing your wedding day this fall.  We know it is going to be so amazing! 

Cheers to you both!
