I took these photos a few months back for Cynthia, Mike and their super cutie little Kinley in Palos Verdes. This shoot was super laid back and fun! I love that she wanted to wear her boots and had a couple props as well! We went to a few of my fave spots around Palos Verdes where we could dance, play and just be ourselves.

On your engagement shoot I think it is truly important to be who you are – this is YOUR time to shine and show the world who you are – whether it be a rustic photo shoot in the woods, at a coffee shop, the mountains, a brewery downtown or even in your own home. We are definitely lucky to live in such a beautiful place where we actually have all of those options available to us.

The engagement session is also very important to me because that is where I get to know you! We have a ton more time to see what poses you like and what makes you feel comfortable and beautiful too. I loved my time with their little family! I definitely see a lot of myself and Igor in their relationship – very down to earth…love living in Lomita, going to country concerts and drinking craft beer! Their daughter is just adorable and I can’t wait to see her in her little dress walking down the aisle.

Today they say I do! I am so excited to see their celebration with family and friends! It’s supposed to drizzle a tad today but clearing up in the afternoon which will make for some great skies…Congrats Mike, Cynthia & Kinley! I decided to make you a little video instead of the usual blog post..Enjoy!
