We had so much fun shooting with Bill and Crystal at Belmont Park, in Pacific Beach. This lovely couple is from Arizona and they made a special trip out to come enjoy sunny San Diego and to run around with us for an engagement shoot. Bill and Crystal met about five years ago through some mutual friends. After meeting, Bill decided to make himself a regular at her restaurant to get to know her a little better. Flash forward to three years later and he uncharacteristically proposed to her one night on the couch while watching TV. He basically said “are we going to do this, or what? Chrystal being who she was made him ask again and they finally decided to go for it. Without even discussing it before hand they both decided on 10/10/10 as their wedding date. Great minds really do think alike.
We started our afternoon with Bill and Crystal by moseying along the beach side alley ways of Mission beach, where we found the biggest Tiki head I’ve ever seen and of course had to take some pictures with him. Later in the afternoon, once the crowds had died down a little we hit up the famous Belmont Park. I have to say that we were all looking forward to a harrowing ride on the bumpy old roller coaster. We discovered upon our arrival that it was broken! In all my years of frequenting Belmont Park I have never once seen the roller coaster not running. It was quite a disappointment. But we lifted all our spirits with bumper cars and arcade games.
Thank you Bill and Crystal for such a fun Photo day! You two are so much fun and we can’t wait to get more great pictures on your special day!
