Engagement Photography in Long Beach & Los Angeles

We recommend scheduling your engagement session 6-8 months before your wedding date. This timing allows for optimal use of the photos for save-the-dates, wedding websites, and guest books. We can also plan around seasonal changes for the perfect backdrop that matches your vision.

We recommend bringing 2-3 outfit changes that range from casual to dressy. Choose coordinating (not matching) colors and avoid busy patterns. Consider your location and the season when selecting outfits. We'll provide a detailed style guide upon booking to help you plan the perfect looks.

Our standard engagement sessions typically last 1-2 hours, which allows time for multiple locations, outfit changes, and both posed and candid shots. We'll work at a relaxed pace to ensure you feel comfortable and natural in front of the camera.

We can shoot at meaningful locations like where you first met or got engaged, or explore scenic spots that match your style. We have a curated list of beautiful locations ranging from urban settings to natural landscapes, and we're always happy to scout new locations that are special to you.

You'll receive a curated online gallery of fully edited images within 2-3 weeks after your session. The gallery includes both high-resolution images for printing and web-optimized versions for social media sharing. You'll have full downloading rights to all your images.
