The hills were so green and lush, something that we only get for a few months out of the year and for the past few years it has been less than that due to the drought. What a perfect time to take photos with all this beauty around us.  Helen Putnam Regional Park is where Michael’s parents use to bring him when he was young and as he grew older it has grown to be a very special place in his heart. Since this place has been so important to him throughout his life he wanted another milestone to be made there. They brought their two sweet dogs with them which are members of the family. As we walked through the grass they could not help but be excited to be out in the wide open fields where they could roam around for hours if they had the opportunity. 

I can’t express how much I enjoyed taking Maria & Michael’s engagement photos! They are such a sweet couple and I can’t wait to take their wedding photos!
