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!

Love the photos guys! Especially the one of your reflection in the water. And maybe just because it also features Winston.
Love the photos guys, especially the one of where you are reflected in the water. And maybe just because it also features Winston.
Love the 5th one, it is so romantic when you guys hold hands and walking by the beach, and the reflection in the water is amazing too!!
Beautiful pictures. I love all of them but my favorite is the one that see you are kissing from the reflection in the water. You two look great together. Congrats! 🙂
Love the photos, especially the one with the pants Rodion would only ever wear in an engagement photo. Congrats guys!
Awesome photos! Love the one with you on the beach and the one with the photographer
My favorite of you two is the fourth from the bottom (Ro in green polo, Lusha in polka dots), but I also love the one of you guys on the beach (fifth from top).
Gorgeous couple, captured beautifully! My favorite is the reflection photo. Congratulations!!
I love, love, love them all!!! The 7th one down is my favorite! 🙂 Also, the reflection in the water is awesome too. I love the last one with the North Park sign, it looks great in the background, but you and Lusha are cleary focus of the picture! The picure with the Torrey Pines Sandstone in the background is a bonus too! 🙂
Hey Ro & Lusha,
Great shots… really. You picked one hell of a photographer. I must admit when Yulia told me “pre-wedding” shots, my “schmaltz / staged photo hell” radar went off, well because that’s what I usually see. These are very genuine, slice-of-life, beautiful shots of you two. And the best part is how much the photos evoke your love for one another. Bravo.

What a great couple and amazing photos! I love them all, but the one of you guys in the reflection with the doggies is amazing!
So hard to choose a favorite! Love the reflection photo and the polka dot dress close up – your expressions look really natural in that photo! Ro – I think the thumbs/hands in the pockets is your signature look?!
Look guys look awesome! Each picture is like a snapshot of your life. I feel very privileged to see them! Loved each one!
Congratulations to both of you. I especially like one under the tree which reminds me of a cover from a storybook.
These pictures are all great. I think the best one is the one with the reflection since it tells the complete story in a single picture. Great work capturing the happy couple…
love all the photos!sweet love birds!!! c’t wait to see u guys!
