Blake and Severina’s wedding is THIS Saturday!! Time sure flies! For their Engagement Session we went down to where Blake is a Life Guard at Crystal Cove. Not only was this location super personal because of his connection with it, it is also a gorgeous beach. It also has The Beachcomber Cafe so we were able to stop by for a drink mid shoot!
Severina wrote about her Engagement Session experience and put together some really helpful E-Session Tips:
Engagement Session Tips from the Bride-To-Be
Here’s an excerpt from her blog:
“Tip #6. Focus on EACH OTHER, not on your poses: Don’t try to be too posey; it’ll come off forced and unnatural in the photos. Your photographer will give you plenty of direction (“okay now kiss her cheek” or “look to your left” or “put your hand on his shoulder”) so don’t worry about any of that. Sure, it’s kind of an odd idea – taking romantic photos in public for a couple hours – but if you decide to just have fun with it, it’s a blast! Be yourselves! Be goofy, be flirty, make each other laugh, and when in doubt – just smooch! Some of my favorite photos are the candid moments and giggles.” Read more.
Blake and Severina!! I am so stoked for you two and excited for your wedding on Saturday! You two are a perfect balance for each other and I can see so much joy in you both. Congratulations!!

Tracy and Andrew had the sweetest, intimate wedding ceremony on the bluffs of Laguna Beach, overlooking the gorgeous coastline.
Tracy’s two daughters stood proudly by her side as bridesmaids, while Andrew’s two sons stood with him—making this beautiful day even more meaningful and special. 🥂
@ocbeachweddings brought the perfect touches for a coastal celebration, including parasols and fans for the guests, plus champagne for the bride and groom to cheers with. They made sure everything ran smoothly so Tracy and Andrew could simply soak in every moment of their beautiful day. ✨

Nicolette & Tyler had the most gorgeous wedding day on the bluffs of Dana Point, overlooking the harbor.
Their ceremony took place at the beautiful Heritage Park Alcove, followed by an intimate reception at the Chart House. As the evening unfolded, the warm, romantic golden sunset lit up the coast, creating the most magical backdrop for celebrating their love. ✨🌅
A truly beautiful Dana Point wedding filled with love, laughter, and unforgettable coastal views.

I can’t believe my sweet little Skyla Jade is already two months new and my daughter Cali will be three this week! I’m such a lucky mama to have such sweet girls.
