Karina and Sam are currently managing a long distance relationship, as that's a sacrifice you gotta make when dating a Marine, especially if you are the one who encouraged him to sign up for military to get an opportunity to go to college. Smart girl, she is a keeper!

Sam is stationed in Camp Pendelton at the moment and Karina lives about 5 hours away in the valley. They try to see each other as often as they can, but for now couple of times a months is all they can afford. This year Annual Military Ball was held in San Diego and of course they wouldn't miss a chance to spend the weekend together in sunny SD, dress up and go have some fun.

Capturing these happy moments for them made my day, they both were so sweet. I'm wishing nothing but the best for them, as their love becomes stronger by the day and hoping to receive an email one day to shoot their ENGAGEMENT session. XOXO ;)

Love,

Kristina.
