Jen + Matt live in Long Beach so we decided to shoot their engagement at a few of their favorite spots: Bo-Beau, Naples and Seal Beach. They are adorable and I can’t wait for their wedding next year!

We have been having the most magical sunsets lately. This one was cloudy and the light was just gorgeous. Nicole + Anthony made it even more beautiful.

You might remember Ally + Jeff from their romantic Mission San Juan engagement session. That shoot got cut a little short because the weather was cold and cloudy, not good beach weather. We tried again. This time the tide was crazy high in Laguna so we took a few shots and ended up in Newport. It was perfect!

Can’t wait for their amazing Santa Barbara wedding in November!

Taleen posted this on my Facebook page today and I just had to share!

We just LOVE you so much for capturing those memorable moments in a such a unique fantastic way! we enjoyed every second of the photo shooting session with you! <3We loved your company, you were so easy going and you make us both feel very comfortable,and be ourselves.
THANK YOU DANA !! GREAT JOB!

Those are the best compliments I can receive! Thank you so much you two!

This was such a fun, romantic session full of movement and action. We walked around downtown Laguna and then went to one of Laguna’s prettiest beaches, Victoria Beach. The tide was super high and the light was spectacular. We were able to get some really nice shots of them standing on rocks, surrounded by water. I was a little worried with the how high the tide was but they were so adventurous, they climbed right out there.

They went back to Jordan for their wedding, which I’m sure was amazing.

Taleen + Rami, you two are so lovely. Thank you for being up for anything!
