Moop, I Love You!

As soon as we met up with Emily and Noah for their engagement shoot, we knew that we had to loosen them up. Like most engaged couples being in front of the camera commemorating their love, they seemed a tad bit nervous at first. So they told us this cute little story about themselves. "Moop" is a shared term between these two lovebirds. The meaning of the word originated from a shortened way for them to say "I Love You" to each other in public. They even have the saying on a stuffed elephant's t-shirt, which Emily collects... elephants, that is, not t-shirts!

The photo shoot took place in the hidden little town of Yountville, where their love first began. We traveled the town for photos from the original table where they first met 6 years ago to Chandon Winery, The Veteran's Home, and the quaint little market square. The afternoon was filled with all the past stories of their relationship, followed with continuous smiles, laughs, and endless kisses. From the time that we spent with Emily and Noah, we're already looking forward to working with this wonderful couple at their wedding. Check back to see those photos late next month!
