Tristine & Jordan were connected on New Years day 5 years ago through a mutual friend.  These two started texting each other for a few weeks before Tristine gave in and let Jordan take her out on a date to watch Avatar.  You see, Jordan actually pretended not to have seen the movie before just so he can take her since she wanted to go.  After that, he learned that Tristine was going on Airforce duty to Hawaii, so he offered to take her to the Sacramento airport.....at 4am (mind you, they weren't officially a couple)!  Some may call that crazy, some may call that love.  Whatever it was, Jordan was already in love.  When she came back, these two made it official and have been inseparable ever since.

Here are their engagement session images from beautiful Stow Lake and historic Sutro Bath ruins in San Francisco.  Tristine had always wanted Jordan to row her around on a boat, and she finally had her wish!  While I shot this session, I couldn't help but think about how symbolic this was to their relationship; how he "worked" to get that first date and proved to her that he was boyfriend material.  

Enjoy! - J
