Sun-kissed La Jolla Shores Couples Session - Sean & Nadine

Such a fun session. This session was special because Sean and Nadine were the winners of a giveaway I did for a couples session. I rarely do giveaways, but when I do, probably what I like most about it is the surprise element and getting to read through love stories. It took me two hours to read through hundreds of comments in which I asked couples to describe a favorite memory they shared.

Lemme tell you there were some GOOD ONES and I feel so grateful being invited into peoples’ stories. I eventually narrowed it down to ten of the ones that stood out to me the most, and inserted them into a random generator to determine the winner.

Sean and Nadine everybody! Read on to see what these high school sweethearts chose as their favorite memories with one another.

In Nadine’s words, her favorite memory was “when we went to junior prom in high school and ‘Come on Eileen’ started playing and we started dancing and you threw water on yourself because you had a fever but wanted to keep dancing.”

During the session, we ended up playing ‘Come on Eileen’ as they danced to it in the waters…soaked and all! A little adventure doesn’t hurt ;)

Sean describes the beginnings of their relationship as his favorite memory. He said in response to Nadine, “My fave memory is when we first started talking, and I wasn’t quite sure yet if you liked me, but then one day you came up to me with a sticky note and handed it to me, which had a cute little drawing of me and your number (which I had to decipher from Arabic, lol). I just thought it was so nice, and that was when I became pretty sure you liked me).”

As it was nearing sunset, we ended the session with the two having a quiet moment overlooking the deep, blue waters. A peaceful ending to a beautiful day.
