We first met Courtney + Matt when Matt was a groomsman and Courtney was a guest at another awesome couples wedding (Tiffany + Brian). We were thrilled when they contacted us to shoot their Santa Babara Zoo Wedding (which is going to be epic and include a giraffe feeding..what?!?). After chatting with them a bit we decided that shooting near their home in Long Beach was going to be the perfect fit for their engagement session, add in their super cool Russian wolfhound pup (who much prefers standing to laying down) and we were all set to have some fun!

Nate and Beth’s wedding was two weeks ago up in Paso Robles and it was so incredibly beautiful. As we were editing their wedding images we realized we had an engagement blog post all ready to go for them and we had yet to post it! So, here’s their engagement and keep a look out for their wedding images coming to a blog near you soon.

Now, buckle up blog fans because you are about to read the greatest example of small world-ness to occur since the opening of the Disneyland ride sharing the same theme! Are you ready? Ok, let’s go on this journey together:

Nate has a brother named Matt. Matt and Joe were roommates for a few years. When Beth and Nate booked us for their wedding, Nate didn’t know that Matt and Joe had lived together and we didn’t know that Nate and Matt were related! It was a total coincidence and none of us realized it until right before we shot their engagement session! Whaaaaaaat!?!?!? Ok, maybe comparing that odd coincidence to the opening of It’s A Small World across 5 Disneyland resorts around the world (thanks Wikipedia!) was a bit hyperbolic… but it was a pretty crazy coincidence!
