One of the many reasons I love living in Southern California, even an overcast day at the beach is beautiful. Lucky for us, since the clouds rolled in just hours before we started Shay and Joe’s engagement shoot. I have to say I’m loving the soft creamy light and pastel colors, plus Shay and Joe are the kind of people that light up a room. So naturally they brought some fantastic energy with them on the shoot!

It’s always such a treat to spend an hour photographing my couples for their engagement. I learn so much about them, their mannerisms, and relationship in general. It couldn’t be more clear what sweet and warm people Shay and Joe are, and together you can just feel the connection.
