Julie and Dustin’s engagement session was the perfect reminder that sometimes the best moments happen when plans change.
We originally had our sights set on Palm Springs, but with the heat wave rolling in, we pivoted and headed to the coast and honestly, it could not have worked out more beautifully. The weather was dreamy, the light was soft, and the entire evening felt effortless from start to finish.
These two are the kind of couple that make my job so fun! There was so much laughter, the kind that just keeps going and pulls you in with it. Every moment felt natural, easy, and full of joy. As the sun started to dip, they popped champagne and soaked it all in. Golden light, ocean breeze, and the two of them just celebrating this season of life together. It was simple, fun, and felt so them.
Julie and Dustin, I am already counting down the days until your wedding later this year. If your engagement session was any indication, it is going to be something really special and full of joy!

















If you’re planning your engagement session and feeling unsure about locations, timing, or even the vibe, just know you don’t have to have it all figured out. Julie and Dustin’s Los Angeles beach engagement might have not been the original plan, but turned out so perfect! The magic comes from choosing what feels right for you and being open to the unexpected. Whether we pivot locations, chase better light, or simply lean into the moment, your session should feel fun, relaxed, and completely you. If that sounds like your kind of experience, I’d love to help you bring it to life and create something you’ll never forget.
