san diego engagement session

Balboa Park is one of the most beautiful locations in all of San Diego. It even holds our own San Diego Zoo. So when Humberto & Candace asked me to photograph their engagement session at the Balboa Park I was quite excited!

What I love most about Balboa Park are the Spanish Colonial style buildings. There are marvelous Spanish and Latin American architectural details covering almost every wall. It’s a top choice for portraiture with many nooks and crannies. Balboa Park really gets the creative juices flowing and it’s just the perfect spot to capture two people in love.

Humberto wore a gray vest over a white long sleeve shirt with matching slacks. Very clean cut and GQ looking. He pulled the look off perfectly. Candace wore 2 outfits. The first being a cute red dress. Candace’s dress came out great against the bright greens of Balboa Park. It really made her and Humberto stand out. Her second dress was just completely AWESOME. A black and white vintage inspired dress complete with the vintage lace gloves. It was such an authentic look and feel even with the black flower headpiece.

So we roamed around Balboa Park as I captured their story, their laughter, their lives.

We ended the engagement session in Coronado against the pastel colors of the sky, ocean and beach.

Do you have a great idea for your engagement session? I’m very flexible with multiple locations. If it sounds good it will look good on camera! Here’s a continuation of Mark & Rachelle’s engagement session from Balboa Park.

It was another beautiful day in San Diego. You know what that means! It’s 2010 and we have our first engagement session on the way in Balboa Park. This is just one of the two locations chosen and I really love the images you are about to see.

Engagement sessions are really one of the best times to really show everyone the love and bond you share. You show them your favorite places to make memories but this time you put it in a photo!

I hope you all enjoy these
