Fran & Luke // Engaged
September 5, 2021
Los Angeles, California
I met Fran and Luke at the same time that they met each other. We were working on a series for CollegeHumor, and I never thought that almost 10 years later, they would ask me to take their engagement and wedding photos.
Fran and Luke are the best kind of LA couple. They’re the perfect mix of SoCal casual and Hollywood romance, and I thought a downtown walk would suit them perfectly. We started at The Broad, one of my favorite museums in the city. It was surprisingly quiet that evening; the crowds had thinned, and there were no onlookers, allowing Fran and Luke to relax with each other.
We continued our walk through Grand Park, taking a moment to sit and reflect on the joy it is to live in LA with the person you love. It was sweet watching as Fran and Luke continued to check in with each other with small, reassuring touches. It made photographing them unbelievably easy.
We finished the night in Grand Central Market. While the hustle and bustle might not feel romantic to some, watching Fran and Luke share the things that excited them and take joy in making each other laugh, you couldn’t help but fall in love.
