When we asked Andy + Tala what their idea of a perfect date was, they told us going on a hike, and eating some homemade sandwiches made my Andy. Little did we know that WE would get to go with them on a perfect date for their engagement session! We got to photograph their fun AND romantic desert engagement session in Joshua Tree and we totally ended our ‘date’ by warming up in the car, munching on some AMAZING sandwiches that Andy brought for us!!!

Andy + Tala met a couple of years ago through Andy’s sister, and it’s been quite the adventure together ever since! They just recently moved to the desert area from Orange County, and we’re so glad that they did!! This area is perfect for them, with all the hiking and biking available – which is how they really love to spend their spare time, when they aren’t busy working or planning their wedding for next year.

We had so much fun hanging out with these two, and we know it’s going to be such a fun wedding at the Westin Mission Hills, with their big families and all the beautiful things planned! We can’t wait for all the fun next year – especially after how much fun we had for their engagement session!
