"There are days in a life when thus to climb out of the lowlands seems like scaling heaven."
- Robert Louis Stevenson

From film photographer Louise of Taylor & Porter: "Starting with this beautiful quote we envisioned this inspirational engagement shoot as a celebration of the wild and beautiful landscape of this part of California. A showcase of what makes this part of the world unique, it's floral and fauna, colours, textures and the feeling we get by visiting it. A suggestion of the love story between our couple who have chosen to follow the hill trail for a rustic and elegant picnic, enjoying artisan organic local foods and finding peace, serenity and romance on their adventure through this dramatic landscape with incredible views.
