I saw Estevan cheering his fiance Estrella on from his seat as she gave her Maid of Honor speech at her best friend Estee’s wedding, which I was photographing. I remember Esteban whisking Estrella off her feet on the dance floor and how they emitted happiness and this deep love for each other that was warm and genuine. I remember thinking, “Aww, they look like they have a lot of fun!” Good people attract good people, so it’s no surprise that my couples have amazing friends and family I get to be around all day.

Fast forward to today and Esteban is no longer a fiance but rather a husband, and Estrella is expecting their first child, a baby girl! When they approached me to document this very special time in their lives, I of course said yes. With a combination of land and sea, La Jolla was the perfect place for Estrella and Estevan’s maternity portrait session. Estrella loves the water, so ending on the beach at sunset was perfect!

Estrella and Estevan, I adore you both and cannot wait to hear all about parenthood! You will make phenomenal parents! Can’t wait to meet Baby E! xo, Evelyn
