Engagement Sessions
With Excitement
Beach & lifestyle engagement sessions throughout San Clemente, Dana Point, Laguna Beach, San Juan Capistrano and South Orange County.
A Little Style.
A Little Adventure.
Pick a location that fits the two of you and we’ll take it from there.
Beach, harbor, downtown, cliffs or trails — I’ll keep things moving, give you direction when you need it, and make sure we get plenty of variety.
Make It Yours
Pick Your Backdrop
San Clemente — beaches, cliffs, the pier, downtown, and trails.
Dana Point — harbor views, beaches, bluff-top parks, and coastal trails.
Laguna Beach — coves, cliffs, rocky beaches, parks, and some of the best
coastal backdrops in Orange County.
San Juan Capistrano — historic streets, greenery, trails, and the Mission area.
Have another place in mind? We can build the session around that too.

Q&A
When is the best time for an engagement session?
For beach sessions and trails, late afternoon usually gives us the best light. Parks and Mission San Juan Capistrano can work well at almost any time of day.
Where can we do our engagement session?
San Clemente, Dana Point, San Juan Capistrano, and other Orange County locations all give us plenty of options. Beach, harbor, downtown, trails, cliffs, or somewhere that actually means something to you.
Can we use more than one location?
Yes. The two-hour Engagement Experience is built for that. We can use multiple nearby settings, change outfits, or create a completely different look during the second half.
What should we wear?
Wear something you feel good in. Coordinating usually works better than matching, and I’d stay away from busy patterns that can pull attention away from the two of you.
Can we use the photos for Save the Dates?
Absolutely. Your edited high-resolution images can be used for Save the Dates, your wedding website, prints, and personal use.
