Saratoga National Historic Park | David and Joe's Engagement | Jay Zhang Photography

David and Joe are two silly people. Everything about them reminds me that life is way to short to be so serious. They just constantly were laughing and having fun and enjoying themselves and thats exactly what I wanted them to do - to just exist with each other in their space. There was just so much laughing there wasn't enough time to think about negativity and insecurities, only time to think about having fun, being in love, and laughing all the way home. It was a perfect day filled with perfectly real people.

Waterfront Park Saratoga Springs | Sarah + Matt Couple's Session

It was a beautifully foggy morning. I've been WAITING to do a Foggy Photoshoot FOREVER and this was the perfect morning. I did a scout of this park prior and was hoping for a beautiful sunrise, however as things turn out, Mother Nature had other plans. It was still perfect. Also, Sarah and Matt's outfit was too cute for words, I loved their colors! Its been over 3 years since we first took their photos and I owe it all to them for getting me up and running!
