Romantic Beach Engagement Shoot

This romantic engagement session could not be any dreamier - with this sweet couple, the beautiful beach setting and a cozy beach bonfire all captured by Josh Elliott. This picture-perfect engagement session was styled with beautiful furnishings, fabrics and props sourced from Folklore Vintage Rentals and the beautiful blooms and greenery by Isari Floral Studio.  

This couple was stunning walking hand-in-hand on the beach, telling each other secrets, soaking up the moment and sharing in some favorite memories while making s’mores. We made sure there was a great balance of sand seeping between their toes, a cozy beach set up filled with pillows, a gentle sea breeze at their back all while topping off their engagement session with a romantic, crackling and warm bonfire while the sun was setting over the pacific shore. There is no denying that their was something so incredibly romantic and touching about this entire shoot, their love, the ocean the set up… was perfection.

Love Is In The Air: Olivia and Jeff's Engagement Session

Love is in the air over here at Before I Do events! We are so thrilled for one of our beautiful team members Olivia and her fiancé Jeff on their upcoming wedding! We are in love with their dreamy, fun and light-filled engagement session with Aaron Huniu Photography.

Jeff and Olivia met when they were set up on a blind date in 2011 by a mutual friend. The only words of encouragement offered up to the two by this mutual friend were "It won't be so bad..". Well, it turned out she was right, it wasn't so bad at all, it was GREAT! 

Five years of dating later, Jeff proposed to Liv at their home in Encinitas on New Year's Eve. Jeff had invited both of their families there to surprise Liv and to make the occasion even more special for the couple! 

Liv and Jeff chose to take their engagement photos in the darling surf town of Encinitas, which they call home. Encinitas is so special to them as a couple; they bought their first home there and spend almost every weekend there. They loved both exploring the hidden parts of Encinitas they had never seen before and a few of their old favorite spots with Aaron. They even had a passerby question Aaron asking, "Who are they?", assuming only celebrities would have their picture taken while drinking beers on a Sunday! 

We love you Liv and cannot wait for your wedding!! All the best wishes to this beautiful and joyful couple!! oxoxo
