Chrissy and I have traveled many places. We love traveling and we love immersing ourselves in culture. Greece was by far one of our favorite places! Athens was nothing like we could have imagined. Every square inch of it is covered in graffiti (so it seemed), it felt more like we were in the middle east than Europe and EVERYONE was so NICE!....oh....and stray cats. Lots and lots of stray cats. Santorini was truly gorgeous. For years we have heard all the hype about Santorini and the stark white and blue churches covering the island. Well it lives up to every bit of hype. We were lucky enough to go in the off season just weeks before the island starts to shut down for the season. This made it quite enjoyable. It wasn't too hot or too crowded. We ended up in a small town called Nafplio, that was something out of a Wes Anderson film. We have decided this is where we are going to retire and we have 30 years to learn Greek. If you are considering traveling to Greece we would HIGHLY recommend it!
Quite a wild story on how we all met and came to this shoot! Chrissy and I took a great walk through Oia and decided we were going to go to Amoudi Bay for a swim and some cliff jumping. After sitting and swimming for a while we see this cool (english speaking) couple come up and sit next to us. After exchanging some pleasantries I decided to do a jump off the cliff before we left. After jumping and swimming back I pass Lauren in the water and just happened to ask where they were from....and of all places in the world they were from Jacksonville, FL.....My home for several years and the place I started my business! After that quick conversation Chrissy and I left and that was it....see ya later! But NO....scrolling through Instagram I randomly see Jared's post and find out they are a wedding photography team known as We are the Bowsers. Obviously I was excited to see this and sent a message to hook up and possibly do a super quick morning shoot before Chrissy and I left back for Athens. Well, it worked out and we exchanged super quick shoots and without a doubt made some awesome new friends! The world is a small place. You never know where and when you are going to meet new friends!

What an awesome engagement session! The Mexican War Streets always has a special spot in our hearts, because it is our Neighborhood! We know so many people, we walk our dog, have made friends and we LOVE when couples want to come be a part of the fun, history and beauty! We took Kim and Robert on the walking tour of the Mexican War Streets for their engagement session and we had so much fun!
