Sometimes all it takes to spark a love story is the dance floor at a work party — that’s exactly how Lainey & TJ’s story began! The details of that night might be blurry, but each remembers that moment & will forever. Fast forward a bit & TJ is proposing to Lainey on the Malibu pier during what she thought was supposed to be a doggie date with their pup, Lissie, & her bestie! Needless to say, Lissie needed to be included in their Joshua Tree engagement photos since she’s been such a big part of their engagement!

Not only is Lissie the cutest, Lainey & TJ have a personal style all their own & I am here for it! We all had so much fun running all over Joshua Tree National Park for their Joshua Tree engagement photos & were even blessed with an epic cotton candy colored sunset – yay! I’m still not over how cute her heart shaped engagement ring is & how perfect her jewelry complimented her session outfits (oh & she made the jewelry herself!) Truly, I cannot wait for their desert wedding this Fall!

Psst…get your curser ready to hit that “pin it” button because these pics are about to give you some major Joshua Tree engagement photos inspo! And don’t forget to see more of our beautiful engagement photos!

Monica & Ethan were the winners of my engagement session giveaway when we launched the Cheers Babe Wedding Freebies! It was so much fun to get to know these two & run all over Abbot Kinney Boulevard in Venice for these adorable Abbot Kinney Engagement Photos! Can’t wait to capture their colorful wedding at The Fig House in April!

Okay not only are Kendal & Devon like the most attractive couple, they’re super smart, they can dance and we got to do their San Francisco engagement photos in SF’s most colorful neighborhood, The Mission. #Blessed! These two also had just about the most adorable meet cute. They actually met in Lake Tahoe at a New Year’s Eve party & shared their first kiss together that night! Anyone else feeling the high school musical vibes? Like so cute!! I know you’re gonna wanna pin like every single one for inspo for your San Francisco engagement photos! Let’s go!

Don’t forget to pin these cuties as you plan your engagement session!

Niko & Coury are just too much, y’all. 🥰 Yeah I said y’all — it’s cool because Coury is from TX, okay? Anyway, these two lovebirds are 2 of the nicest humans I’ve ever met. They give me all the feels & I cannot wait to capture their wedding day this April. In the meantime, you can scroll through their Venice Canals engagement photos below!

I LOVE how unique this Oakland Port engagement session turned out! Barbara & Justin are two very busy medical residents and thankfully we were able to squeeze in their session right before we made our move down to LA! They used to spend a lot of time in Oakland, so we made sure to include that piece of their love story into their Oakland Port engagement session. Barb also really loves the port, so we popped some bubbly and ran around the Oakland Port – it was so fun! We even got lucky & there was a huge freight boat (do you call it a boat? haha) unloading during the shoot! Ended with a dance party at Drake’s Dealership, which is always a good idea!!

I am truly obsessed with Pauline & Scott’s Colorful San Francisco engagement session! From their personal style to their game-for-anything attitudes, these two are just so fun! In true fun fashion, they wanted their engagement photos to be full of color & the SF Mission District didn’t disappoint. Here are some of my faves from their very colorful San Francisco engagement photo shoot!

I feel so lucky to have gotten to meet this amazing couple during this exciting season of their lives! They are actually getting married in Iowa, where Alex is originally from, and there was a predicament with their engagement session – their Iowa photographer was unable to travel to California (where Alex & Ben live now) for these Santa Cruz engagement photos. I was so thrilled to step in and help out! We had so much fun getting to know these two & talk all about wine and weddings! We started their engagement session at a winery in Santa Cruz and then drove to the beach for the rest of the session. My favorite moment was when Ben surprised Alex with a ukulele serenade for these Santa Cruz Engagement photos! Keep scrolling to catch all the poppin’ bubbly!

It never gets old to photograph a bride who was a bridesmaid at another one of my weddings! I got to know Meg briefly at Erica & Rob’s NYE wedding last season & I was thrilled when she & her fiancé, Spencer, reached out about their own wedding! These two were way too much fun for the at home engagement photos, I just know they are going to throw an incredible celebration in SLO next Fall!! CANNOT WAIT!
