Congratulations on your engagement, Ariana + AJ! To celebrate, they booked me for an engagement shoot at Morro Rock.

Ariana + AJ are brand-new clients, so it was fantastic getting to know them during our session! AJ loves collecting old cars and Ariana is a tattoo artist.

This couple is truly meant for each other! Through the entire session, I felt their peace and warmth towards one another. They are super in love, and there’s no doubt in my mind that they’re soulmates!

Since it was their first time taking professional photos, I was so impressed with how comfortable they were together in front of the camera!

They actually came all the way from Los Angeles to have their photos taken, which is about a three or four hour drive from here. They look so beautiful that I can’t even tell based on the photos!

Sadly, the Morro Rock wasn’t visible in our shoot because of the crazy amount of fog. However, that didn’t stop us from capturing an awesome session!

Since fog is pretty unpredictable, I knew it was going to be difficult to make the photos pop, but we fearlessly took on the challenge.

It was great Ariana + AJ chose to dress in black! That made them really stand out from the light background.

In the end, I think we did a fantastic job! We came out with a stunningly unique session with a spectacular couple. The misty fog suits their style and personality perfectly, but I still hope that it will be clear for the wedding!

I’m so excited to be photographing your wedding later next month! It will be so exciting to come back here to Morro Rock. I hope you both cherish this exciting time of life!
