Too. precious. Austin, Nicole & I had a great evening on the edge of Long Beach's shore. Austin resides in Southern CA, & Nicole drove down from San Luis Obispo that day. After 4 hours of driving, she pulled up to the spot just before the sun went down & jumped out of the car. Nicole genuinely smiled from ear to ear as she was embraced in Austin's arms, finally reunited after a bit of long distance, school separation. Effortlessly, they laughed and danced in front of my camera - pumped to squeeze a joyful shoot {of squeezing each other} into their short weekend spent together. Sometimes, when you really want to capture something special, you just have to make it work :). xo
