More Than a Photoshoot

Here's something couples don't expect: your engagement session is the best thing you can do to prepare for your wedding day. Most people have never been professionally photographed as a couple, and that first time in front of the camera can feel awkward. The engagement session fixes that. By your wedding day, you already know how we work, you're relaxed together, and you trust the process. That comfort shows in every wedding photo that follows. A great engagement session makes your wedding day ten times better.

We Plan It With You, A to Z

A session is only 90 minutes, so every detail counts. We don't just show up and shoot. We help you plan the whole thing from start to finish, location, timing, what to wear, and how to make the most of the light. Outfit changes are optional and something we talk through together based on the look you want. Come with an idea or come with nothing, either way we'll shape a session that feels like you.

Where We Shoot

The best location is the one that fits you, so we discuss it together to find the right backdrop for your story. A few Orange County and Southern California spots we love for engagement sessions: the dramatic rocks and tide pools of El Matador Beach in Malibu, the seaside cliffs at Trump National in Palos Verdes, the industrial arches of the Sixth Street Viaduct in downtown LA, and the iconic bridge at Newport Beach. Have a place that's meaningful to the two of you? Even better. This is where you shoot for the wedding too. Take a look at our Wedding Photography work.

What You'll Receive

Your engagement session is delivered as edited high-resolution digital files in a private online gallery, ready to download and share. Every image is hand-edited in our signature style, and these photos are perfect for save-the-dates, wedding websites, and guest book displays. From there, you can turn your favorites into framed prints or album pieces for your home.

Engagement sessions are available on their own or as part of a wedding collection. However you book, this is where your story with us begins. We work with couples in English and Spanish, and we'd love to help you plan a session that sets the tone for everything to come. Hablamos español.
