Amy & Keegan // Thousand Oaks Engagement Session

My SWEET FRIENDS ARE GETTING MARRIED!!! I am beyond excited to share these photos of one of my longest-time pals & his beautiful fiancé.

Amy & Keegan first met back in high school when Amy was a teacher’s assistant, & Keegan was an absolute class clown. They were opposites in almost every way—Amy was helping grade homework assignments, quietly working alongside an American Sign Language teacher, and Keegan was cracking jokes and making everyone & anyone laugh in the back corner of the class. They noticed one another & interacted minimally, but it wasn’t until about 5 years later that the spark between them really ignited.

Reconnecting on a night out while home for the holidays, Amy & Keegan finally really hit it off. They began dating pretty quickly after, and three years later, Keegan dropped to one knee in Mammoth & asked Amy to be his wife. She.. spoiler coming.. said yes. :)

I’ve known Keegan since 6th grade, and have loved him dearly every moment since our paths first crossed. As a TRUE class clown myself, people like us really gravitate towards one another, and I have countless amazing memories with this goofy boy. We stayed close until we graduated high school, and when I heard (a few years later) that he was dating my beautiful Sign Language Teacher’s Assistant AMY (yep, she was MY T.A. too, yet we somehow only had 6 solid conversations.. all in ASL), I was so overjoyed for the two of them.

I was even MORE stoked when I finally met Amy for coffee to chat about their wedding plans. Within an hour, I realized I’d been SERIOUSLY missing out on the years I could’ve been friends with this gal! She is kind to the core, warm as the sun, sweet as a pie, and juuust the easiest person to get along with. She is a GOOD egg, and I am so (selfishly) grateful that her marrying Keegan has brought us closer together. After planning & replanning their day in the face of a pandemic, nursing school, job changes, and a handful of unexpected events, these two sweet angels are finally getting married in October. And I am so excited I do not know what to do besides blast their beautiful engagement photos into the internet-sphere.

I love u, Amy & Keegs. :’)
