Lovers Lane SF Engagement – Monica & Chris

Engagements

Monica & Chris’s Lovers Lane, San Francisco engagement session threw both me and the couple by surprise. We all departed our homes in the East Bay, were temps where in the 80s, and arrived in the city, only to be greeted by a windy, foggy, chilly 50 degrees! It was like we had left the summer season, and teleported right into fall. But that didn’t stop us from having a gorgeous session! Monica & Chris didn’t blink an eye at the freezing temperatures and we went on to capture some truly beautiful moments.

How They Met

Monica and Chris are both athletic people and naturally met playing sports. Monica’s mom ran a soccer league that they both played in. When Chris joined the team, they sensed an attraction toward one another, but quickly became friends. Since Monica’s brothers were also on the team, it was a running joke that Chris had met the entire family right off the bat. Monica was the one to make the first move beyond soccer friends, and asked Chris to go out with her. The rest was history from that first date. Stay tuned for their wedding post where I tell you all about their Tahoe engagement!
