Michelle + Joel // Temecula Engagement Session

Michelle, Joel, their pup GG and I spent the day in Temecula for their engagement session. We began at the cutest coffee shop in Old Town and made our way to Mount Palomar Winery, where the two became engaged! Check out the fun here.

Ugh, I’m the worst at blogging sessions! Moving forward through 2019 I will make sure I blog more. I will start with this beautiful engagement session from October 2018.

Michelle and Joel have been together since they were teenagers and this coming September they are becoming Mr. and Mrs. and they chose little ole’ me to capture it. (S/O to my sorority sister Marissa for recommending me - you’re a real one ;) ! )

After debating all the beautiful places to shoot at in Southern California, we decided on the most special one - Mount Palomar Winery - where the two became engaged. (And a cute little coffee shop just for fun.) The day was filled with laughter, love, and beautiful photos. Michelle had the cutest jean jacket made that said “Mrs. Ortiz” on the back and brought the sweetest Mr. and Mrs. mugs. We also had to include their fur child Gigi, the cutest little pup around. Their engagement session only made me that much more excited for their big day. Thank you Michelle and Joel for trusting me to capture this next chapter of your lives!

Take a look at our day below:

Pelin + Jake // Newport Beach, Ca Engagement Session

Pelin, Jake and I made our way to Newport Beach where their love story began for their second engagement shoot. We got in the water, popped some champagne and ended it at Stag Bar, which is where they met! Can we we all say "Awww" in unison? Check out the pics here!

On July 4, 2016 Pelin laid eyes on the man of her dreams at Stag Bar in Newport Beach. Thanks to a friend for forcing her to "bump" into him, they began talking and the rest is history - a history I selfishly get to celebrate being apart of. This was my second engagement shoot with Pelin and Jake. While we loved the first round of photos, they both recently got super fit and wanted to show off their hard work. AND I MEAN, LOOK AT THEM!! They are as beautiful outside as they are in. Their love truly radiates on and off the camera and I feel so grateful to be trusted with this big chapter in their lives. October 6th can't come soon enough! Take a look at the fun we had here!
