Woohoo! Summer is finally here and I’m not sure where you are in the world, but you can definitely feel it here in Southern California. But I’m definitely complaining. While I’m not a huuuuge outdoorsy guy, I do appreciate bright sunny days and do love taking in the beautiful scenery that SoCal has to offer. I was so stoked when Lydia and Gene said that they wanted to have their engagement session at the Ramona Grassland Preserve because it’s a location I’ve been wanting to shoot at for a while and just haven’t gotten the chance to do so…until now! But enough about this gorgeous location…Let’s talk about this couple and the reason why you’re all here!

I had such an amazing time getting to know Lydia & Gene and instantly fell in love with how sweet and gentle they are toward each other. These two told me that they’re awkward in front of the camera, which I soon found out was a LIE. They took my direction and prompts with such ease and made my job so easy. Plus, look at them.. They’re adorable.

Lydia + Gene, it was SO fun photographing you two and your loooove and I can’t wait for your wedding later this year!

If you’re thinking of having your engagement session here, I’d love to chat with you! Feel free to contact me here!

BEHIND THE LENS

ABOUT Justin

I've always been drawn to all things creative, but didn't pick up a camera until my senior year in high school to document a trip my friends and I were taking to San Francisco.  I had no idea how to correctly work my camera, but instantly fell in love with the concept of capturing moments in an artistic way.  I became obsessed with photographing anything and anyone willing to get in front of my lens.  Still lifes, landscapes, pets, people.  People.  What started out as a passion for photography quickly turned into a passion for people and the love they share.  I can't put words to the feeling of capturing fleeting moments, celebratory tears, warm embraces,  or loving glances.  What I can say is how incredibly fulfilling photographing weddings all over the west coast for the past twelve  years has been.  I'm thrilled to have you here and can't wait to work with you!
