Malia and Andy are old souls. Their deep connection and incredible love for one another feels torn from the pages of a novel, having met by chance – distanced hundreds of miles apart – they defeated all the odds that come with long distance relationships and found something truly miraculous… A soul mate in one another.
On their cross-country trip from upstate New York to the West Coast, before moving to Hawaii, Malia and Andy made one stop in Annapolis for their engagement pictures! I feel so humbled and honored that they would add my little town to their itinerary, catching up with old friends at the Academy and spending a few foggy morning hours with me!
We were hoping for a sunrise session, but were totally taken aback when the thick layers of fog made for some truly spectacular images! The photograph of these two kissing on the dock… with nothing behind them but the fog… Instant favorite!
Congratulations Malia & Andy! You both are AMAZING and I loved finally getting to meet you both!
