There’s something undeniably romantic about an El Matador Beach Engagement session in Malibu. The way the ocean kisses the shore, the cliffs standing quietly in the background, and the golden light that wraps around everything as the sun begins to set, it feels like a dream. And when you pair that setting with a couple as effortlessly beautiful and connected as Shannon and Daniel, the result is pure magic!
From the moment we began their El Matador Beach Engagement session, everything just flowed. Daniel and Shannon have this soft, sweet way of being around each other—gentle laughter, quiet glances that lead to bursts of laughter, and the kind of chemistry that doesn’t need to be loud to be powerful.
These are the kinds of sessions that remind me why I love capturing love. It’s in the soft touches, the in-between moments, and the quiet joy of simply being together. Shannon and Daniel’s engagement session was perfection, and I loved capturing those sweet and quiet moments between them.
Shannon and Daniel, thank you SO much for allowing me to be part of such a special time in your lives. I can’t wait for your big day!
XO!
