Anastasiya and Brendan celebrated one year of marriage with a gorgeous anniversary session at Pasadena City Hall and Arlington Garden. Brendan messaged me about doing this session a few months in advance and I was so pumped. I took their engagement photos, so of course I was stoked to get to photograph another special moment in their life. He made an adorable card telling her he had a session booked with me for her. She texted me right away so excited to start planning.

Brendan and I had already made somewhat of a plan, which included a first look. I planned to pick her up at their apartment while Brendan was supposedly still hard at work, except Brendan and I also made a little plan to re-create a first look since they didn’t have one on their wedding day. They were going to be in their wedding attire, so. I told him to be ready and standing in the middle of garden. He and I were in communication so he knew when I picked her up and our ETA. After she and I parked, I told her I would run up and get set up so I could get photos of her walking into the garden. As she started walking up, she realized he was there and was so stunned. It was such a special moment!! If you didn’t experience a first look on your wedding day, why not recreate one during an anniversary session or a vow renewal?
