Bryce + Desiree - Engagement - Snow Covered Mountain Session - Angelus Oaks CA

When I first talked to Bryce + Desiree about their engagement session, they already knew they wanted to do something adventurous. We planned on doing a mountain session in hopes of finding snow. Well the snow found us! The week we planned on having their session, we had a nice winter storm that more than guaranteed snow. Luckily for us, Bryce’s truck was built for this.

On the way up the mountain headed towards Angelus Oaks, we were a little concerned about finding a place to play in the snow that wouldn’t be over-populated with everyone who had the same idea that weekend. As we entered the snow covered mountains, we ended up getting into a mile-long line of traffic with people waiting to put their chains on.

We made a last minute decision to take a side road that was already covered in snow and had not been plowed yet. That road just happen to lead us up to the perfect empty trailhead where we had full range of mountains and forest completely covered in snow all to ourselves.

We got to run and play in the snow and take some pretty epic photos. Surprisingly it wasn’t event hat cold. it could not have been a more perfect way to spend an engagement session. Towards the end of our session it even started to snow on us. This really will be an engagement session i will never forget.

Alex + Lauren - Engagement - Claremont CA

Claremont Village is a vibe for photos! Had a blast walking around Downtown Claremont CA with Alex + Lauren for their engagement session. I love that we can just hang with our couples, go to downtown, walk around get some coffee and ice cream together and let them enjoy their shoot like its another date night. Loved every spot we hit in this session and their wedding is going to be such an amazing time!

Irvin + Jocelyn - Engagement - Foggy Mountain Adventure in Lake Arrowhead

Here in Southern California, fog isn’t something you can always plan for, so when we do get a little fog, we know it’s going to be a fun session. Irvin and Jocelyn were pretty excited about it too, they knew it was going to make for some pretty awesome photos here near Lake Arrowhead! It also helped that these two are also one of the cutest couples! They were forest ready with their Redwings tied high, we ran around and had a blast just laughing and watching these two fall for each other all over again.
