Chu Family - Home Sweet Home

Usually we meet a couple like the Chu's for an engagement session, but when they called it was for a much different occasion. They were celebrating, but it wasn't an engagement or a baby...it was to celebrate their first home! We met Grace and Eric at their place, but really it's much more than just a pad...this is their VERY first home together! They married last summer and were so happy to have a house to call their own that they scheduled with us to come document. They had obviously worked hard to landscape and decorate with immaculate care.

Their backyard was our favorite place to photograph. They had this beautiful, large canopy that had creeping vines covering their patio with inviting (and comfy) furniture where we got them comfortable and had them "drink coffee" for a few shots.

Capturing these special moments in life are what make our work so meaningful. We know that Grace and Eric will now have these photos of their first home together to show their families, wherever their lives take them in the future.

Grace made this adorable banner to celebrate their upcoming 1 year anniversary. These two were made for each other and we couldn't be happier that we also joined them for this wonderful day.

Can you tell Grace is a teacher and Eric is a student? Who else would have whiteboards at the ready? These two are incredibly creative and thought of these props on their own. We love the adjectives they used to describe one another.

Thank you for sharing this exciting moment with us Grace and Eric! May your home be a happy place...
