We love this sweet La Jolla engagement session on our wedding blog today! The bride to-be wore a beachy braid perfect for the breezy locale and both her & her fiancé walked barefoot on the rocks. They cuddled picnic style with blankets and pillows and posed with the perfect prop – a beach cruiser! It goes to show that all you really need for a gorgeous engagement shoot is a loving couple and pretty location (this favorite engagement took place here too!), but the fun California theme doesn’t hurt :).
Renee Hollingshead shares, The inspiration from this styled engagement shoot came from creating a natural and organic Southern California vibe. Kate and Matt, both originally from the east coast, wanted to create an authentic west coast wedding experience at one of their favorite locations, La Jolla. The rocky cliffs against the pacific ocean proved to be a romantic, natural backdrop for their super romantic session. We love the pop of color from the florals and the sweet beach cruiser that is so typical of southern Cali. This day meant so much to them and us as vendors.
