Destination engagement shoot in Valencia, Spain

Well, this shoot was pretty special. Not only because I flew across the Atlantic Ocean to see these two, but also because Katie + John are just about as sweet as sugar.
Katie and John call Boston home now, but there’s a magical and romantic history to these two that all started in Spain, where John used to work and do research. As a pair they love to travel when they’re not using their giant science brains in the city, and during our first meeting they told me about the world tour they had coming up; I lightly suggested {OK, I think I exuberantly proclaimed I was coming} that they bring me along 🙂 and the rest, as they say, is herstory!
We hatched plans state-side for three different sections of Valencia we thought would represent the different flavors of the area – Jardi de Monfort for a manicured elegant garden, Plaza de la Virgin for the historical Spanish architecture, and naturally for these two: Ciudad de las Artes y las Ciencias {City of Arts and Sciences} – which when we arrived here: my photographer brain EXPLODED. Enjoy our tour:
