Heidi and Carlos’s Engagement Portraits in the Park

LOS ANGELES, CALIFORNIA

Love was in the air when I photographed Heidi and Carlos, and rightly so as they were a few months away from getting married! We photographed their Los Angeles engagement portrait session at Kenneth Hann Park, a beautiful, and rather large park that overlooked the city once you get up top (you’ll see once you get to the end of the post).

These photos were actually taken a few months ago, and since then, they’ve tied the knot! I can’t wait to show you the photos from their wedding soon!

Ashley and Dylan’s Santa Monica Pier Engagement Portraits

On a busy weekend, I met up with Ashley and Dylan on the Santa Monica Pier to photograph their engagement portraits.As far as beaches go, there’s none more iconic than the Santa Monica pier. The colors, the carnival games, the street entertainers, and of course, the ferris wheel.

Dylan actually works in Sacramento and comes down to Los Angeles as often as he can to reunite with his fiance Ashley. How romantic! After swooning enough with these images, I can’t wait to photograph their wedding!

Christine & Abdul’s DTLA Engagement

On a beautiful Sunday afternoon, I met up with Christine and Abdul in the Arts District of downtown Los Angeles to photograph their engagement session. They wanted an urban setting and DTLA became the perfect backdrop. With large pink and white balloons in tow, we wandered the streets aimlessly and found so many little areas within a few short blocks.

It’s always a pleasure meeting couples that met online, as that is how I met my fiance, and hearing the story of how Christine met Abdul through a community website that he started warms my heart. She has such a gentle personality and he a can-do attitude, photographing these two for their DTLA engagement portraits was so effortless. I can’t wait to document their wedding in a few months!

Los Angeles Same Sex Engagement Session

With El Nino looming in the air, I was excited to find that the day we were shooting Alex and Lucia’s engagement portraits, the weather was beautifully crisp and clear. We started the session in a quiet park overlooking downtown Los Angeles that I never knew about!

The last time I saw these two were in the summer of last year, so it was really nice to see them again, all dolled up and ready for the camera, haha. But seriously, how photogenic do these ladies look?! They also brought their adorable English Pug in his cute bow-tie with them to the shoot. Ah, I can’t wait to photograph their wedding in a few months!
