Flavia & Brent - La Jolla Scripps Coastal Reserve & Scripps Pier Engagement Session

Flavia and Brent met in Peru while Brent was visiting for his 30th birthday. He went there without knowing that he would leave having met the love of his life. The two of them lived thousands of miles apart (he in America and she in Peru) for three years, visiting each other from time to time, growing in their love for each other even while physically apart. Until one day, Flavia left all that she knew in Peru to be with him.

Fast forward to 2016, when Brent proposed to Flavia and she said yes, ready to spend the rest of her life with him. The two of them now live in sunny San Diego, and they wanted their engagement session to take place by the ocean. What better location for a gorgeous couple than the gorgeous Scripps Coastal Reserve Cliffside, and then Scripps Pier. Not only are these two incredibly good looking, they are also very much in love and it showed during the time I spent with them. Scroll below to see photographs from their beautiful session.

What can I say about Jeff and Annie's engagement session? When I arrived at the iconic Salk Institute, they were dressed to the nines. Even though there was some construction going on around the facility, the weather provided some gorgeous clouds and the view was spectacular nonetheless. As soon as I started shooting, Jeff and Annie got comfortable real quick and, like professional models, they worked the camera effortlessly.
After Salk, we drove to the second location at the famous La Jolla cliffs. Having gone to UCSD, this had always been one of my favorite photo spots, so it was always on my bucket list to photograph a couple here. So glad Jeff and Annie suggested this location so I could cross that off my list. Again, the weather and light were perfect and as Jeff and Annie cozied up to keep each other warm as the sun began setting, I snapped away. Did I mention how amazing they looked? You can see for yourself.
Lastly, we headed to the beach at La Jolla Shores by the pier. As we were driving down the road I caught a glimpse of the pink and purple sky and the sun just started hitting the horizon. 'Oh no!' I thought, 'we might not make it down there before the sun is completely gone'! But five minutes later we were out of our cars, walking down the path to the beach. Although the light was dwindling down, there was still enough for me to get some spectacular shots of Jeff and Annie as they enjoyed the romantic sunset together.
