Our very first day out west, we drove out at sunrise to meet with Jess and Todd in the Valley of Fire! What troopers! I know we were super excited because we got to meet up with a gorgeous couple in the middle of the desert and capture some sweet moments, but as a couple, I know getting up at 5AM and driving out to the middle of no where could be a little exhausting – but not for Jess and Todd! They were so happy and energetic, completely adventurous and didn’t even mind climbing up big rocks and boulders so we could get “that shot.”

The coolest part about traveling and having couples model for us is that we end up making amazing friendships with them! We all went over their house later that night and got to play with their adorable little pups. So thank you, Jess and Todd, for being so cool and such welcoming faces to start our trip off on the best start possible. You two are the best!
