Alycia and Mario eSession
Engagement pictures are like the frosting on the yummy cake that is my job. Not to say that my job is EASY as much as it is TASTY, and to me engagement sessions are the number one most yummiest part of being a photographer. I get to go to cool places, and do cool things with really cool people, and that makes me ever so happy.
Last week my dearest most beautiful and beloved Jen from The Memory Journalists came and photographed Alycia and Mario’s engagement session with me so she could see the inner workings of a Sarah Maren Photography photo shoot. Plus, we are both Nikon shooters, and she has some bitchin’ lenses I needed to play with. So we met up at my place and then all four of us headed downtown for an evening of fun and frolic.
Alycia and Mario are a pretty fun loving couple. (Please see picture above.) They are energetic, funny and totally awesome. I kept thinking, “I should have taken TWO vitamins today just to keep up with these crazy kids!” They were up for anything, and willing to have a great time. So, yeah, I’m totally in love with them.
We went all over downtown, went from casual beachy outfits to super cute “out on the town” red polka dot dress and red tie outfits, and had a great time doing it all. Alycia and Mario are soccer fans, and loved the idea of playing a quick game while in their “going out” clothes. I love it when couples have ideas for their engagement sessions and wedding shoots. It’s so much more fun for everyone when people let the real them shine through. Alycia and Mario had no problem there!
A BIG, BIG, BIG thanks to Jen for coming and hanging out with me during a shoot. It was way too much fun.
Check this woman out! She’s got the gear!!
And thanks to Alycia and Mario for a great night! I can’t wait for your wedding in September!! Check out their slideshow for more awesome pictures of this too cute couple!









Great show Sarah! Such fun images – and I had a total blast shooting with you. Thanks again.
