After a whole week of rain, we spent a sunny New year’s in Laguna. We ran around the beach laughing and splashing until the sun was completely gone. I love how their energetic, outgoing personalities shine through every image.

Coronado Beach Engagement Session | San Diego Photographer

For their engagement shoot, we started by the sand dunes at Coronado beach, then made our way over to the water for some epic shots with Point Loma and the sunset as a backdrop. We got the best golden hour light that warmed up their skin and made for gorgeous photos.

The blown sand made it feel like the Arabian desert and the wind added to the drama. It created a hazy and soft effect that made it even better than we could’ve anticipated.

Malibu Beach Engagement Session

Malibu Beach Engagement Session

Not only are they fun, generous, and have the kindest hearts, but their love story is unlike any other.

When we did their engagement photos, we expected a beautiful sunny day in Malibu, but instead we got a high tide, overcast sunset. But it ended up being even better than expected!!!

As they golf carted up to the viewpoint, we hid and waited for the perfect moment to pop out and photograph her reaction to the proposal!

We took some rad shots of them skateboarding, since it’s a huge part of their relationship. I thought it was so special that they wanted that captured on the day he asked her to marry him!

These sessions are for those who are down to get a little messy, have their hair blown, and maybe stand on the edge of a cliff (literally). They’ll blow your hiking socks off. The sky is the limit for these, and they’re my specialty!

If you’d rather frolic in the desert, climb a mountain, or visit a desolate stormy beach instead of your typical engagement session, let’s just say I’m already on my way.

10 SoCal Florists for Bright & Natural Wedding Blooms

As a wedding photographer, I’ve seen a lot of florals, and I’ve worked with a LOT of florists. Flowers are my favorite thing ever. And since happy, natural, modern, and bright flowers make me so happy, I’ll focus on florists that KILL this look.

Awkward to Candid - My Tool For Capturing Natural Images

Awkward to Candid - My Tool For Capturing Natural Images

It is the #1 reason why my photos look so genuine and fun. It gives me great ideas on how to pose people naturally, get lots of movement, AND allow them to connect with each other in a meaningful way that gets great emotion out of it.

Lake Cuyamaca Smoke Bomb Engagement

Lake Cuyamaca Smoke Bomb Engagement

Tip for couples taking their pics:

Wear outfits that catch movement — long dresses and hair flowing in the wind are what Vivian chose, and it SLAYED. Anything that is comfy and can provide movement and fun makes your photos even more stunning!!!

Bring a fun prop! In this case, epic smoke bombs will do. SCROLL DOWN to see!!
