Cody & Michelle: Engagement Session | Orange County, CA | Analisa Joy Photography

“LOVE, LOVE, LOVE all your photos!! Thanks for all your beautiful photography and the cute story on your blog. You’re the best!!” – Michelle

Words cannot express how happy I am to be the wedding photographer of Cody and Michelle. These two have been dating since 2005 and they have to be one of the sweetest couples I have ever met. They met in high school, became high school sweethearts, and then they attended the same college together. They both graduated last fall and they already have a bright future ahead of them. Michelle is going to become a teacher and Cody is the assistant of author and Pastor, Rick Warren. We met at Cody’s house up in Orange county and I instantly fell in love when I rolled into the driveway. His mother is the owner of the darling boutique, Daisy Shoppe and every detail from their kitchen to the backyard is decorated so beautifully. One of my favorite parts about meeting at Cody’s house was the fact that right down the street is Vicki from The Real Housewives of Orange County. All my RHOC fans say, heeeyyy! I couldn’t help myself and do a little drive-by when I left…WooWhoo! We shot in multiple locations, but my favorite was our first setting because it was a field where Cody and Michelle used to visit when they first started dating. I had so much fun spending the day with these two and I can’t wait to photograph their big day in November. I know people are counting down the days until these two finally tie the knot and I am so excited to be apart of it! Congrats Cody and Michelle!
