Razan + Andy | Gaslamp, Seaport Village and Coronado

This was such an awesome shoot! Yes, the locations were great, and the weather was wonderful…but most importantly, this couple was just amazing. Razan and Andy were ready to have fun and just radiated with love for one another during the entire shoot. We explored downtown San Diego’s garages, alleys, loading docks, textures, shadows, steps (the many, many steps of the Convention Center!) and views.  During the shoot, we really just felt like we were hanging out with some friends, doing what we love to do…finding cool spots for taking photos.  I did end up on Rick’s shoulders for the first three photos you see here.  I needed to get higher up to get this shot, so Rick just set his camera down and said, “hop on.”  It’s always an adventure with Rick!  And I’m sure the sight was amusing for Razan and Andy.  In fact, I bet in the photo above, they are laughing at us! After downtown, we then ventured on to Seaport Village and ended up in Coronado for sunset.  This shoot was like a little sample of some of the best San Diego has to offer… And it all ended perfectly when Andy started playing Weezer’s “Island in the Sun” over on Coronado, while they looked out towards the San Diego skyline.  What a sweet, sweet couple! We cannot wait for this wedding!

Lusha + Rodion | North Park + Torrey Pines

Rodion and Lusha are a laid back couple who are enjoying life together with their doggies in their neighborhood of North Park.  Lusha is in school for fashion design, and her fashion sense really added a lot to this shoot.  I love how each outfit perfectly fit the location. We started at Torrey Pines, down on the beach. We then headed up to the trails for some more rustic/naturey shots.  The shoot ended in their North Park neighborhood where we stole some urban shots pre-dusk and also had some fun with night photography.  During the shoot, we actually ran into a couple whose wedding we photographed last year.  It was pretty awesome to be shooting on the street and hear “Bernadette and Rick!”  We felt very celebrity-like.  (Just kidding!) We had a blast with Rodion and Lusha and can’t wait until their wedding!

Missy + Juraj | Balboa Park

Some images from an engagement session in Balboa Park.  I’m telling you, I never get tired of this place! We find new spots to shoot in every time we shoot there. Or we see old spaces in a new way.  I love the light on the bridge here! Missy and Juraj were so chill and easy to work with…this shoot really was a walk in the park:-)
