She happily ran across the cold sand in her bare feet, white dress catching a breeze, as the sun slowly peeked over the mountains. He ran after, and with a kiss, lifted her up to the sky.
Carlin and Leighton are one of those couples everyone knew would get married. Crazy in love with each other and ridiculously cute. I’ve known them for a while, but it’s been so fun actually getting to know them and spending time together, talking wedding details over Starbucks and laughing over whatever during their engagement session. And planning double dates and singing to Elton John in the car.
I was super excited when they expressed their willingness to do a sunrise shoot! At the beach! Waking before the birds is so worth it when you have a couple this wonderful and fun, and a location this great…















And this was only the beginning…part two of Carlin + Leighton’s super romantic, super fun engagement shoot will be coming soon!

These are SO pretty Mikaela!! The lighting is stunning!!
…so great…love the light!…pretty cute couple!
GORGEOUS!
Mikaela you are amazing. Carlin I love you and I am so happy for you and Leighton. I cried for sure when I saw these!
Beautiful!!!
Umm, these are quite possibly the cutest pictures I’ve ever seen.
They’re such an adorable couple!!
Wow :)
