A Downtown Engagement

Los Angeles, California
Downtown L.A. is a great place for an engagement portrait session and the perfect backdrop to photograph the lovely urbanites C.C. and her fiance Adrian.

The couple met when Adrian came to L.A. on tour from Australia. After dating long loooong distance, he made the move to California and now they’re planning their wedding! They are both funny and a little silly. C.C. has a beautiful smile and Adrian knows just what to say to make her laugh.

Having an assistant along on a shoot is invaluable especially in a situation like this with a two flash set-up. I’m super lucky that my husband Michael is helping today. (He also shot some awesome photos which will be in a separate blog post.)

Thank you C.C. and Adrian for a fun portrait session! And the cow jokes.
