Joaquin Miller Park: Catie and Russ Engagement Photos

I am looking forward to Russ and Catie’s wedding at Campovida with the Locally Grown Weddings team next September!

Catie and Russ live in Chicago and came to visit for the weekend. So we found a few hours to get together and take their engagement photos at Joaquin Miller Park in Oakland.

An engagement photo session is the best way to get in sync with your wedding photographer. I find that most of the couples I work with have never been photographed by a professional and don’t know quite what to expect. I can totally relate! I don’t like being photographed and feel quite self conscious in front of the camera.

Spending time together, though, really helped us all connect. I also got a good idea of what Catie and Russ like and learned more about their story.

Congratulations, Catie and Russ!
