California Engagement Photographer

Adventure
Written By Flora Gibson

Andy and Vicki’s Engagement session in Big Sur California in the rain was one of my favorite sessions this year. I absolutely love when couples just embrace the weather and have fun no matter what, because I’m all about the mood. From the rain to the sun shining through the clouds at sunset it was seriously breathtaking. A stormy sea is by far my favorite; the low mist on the mountains the cozy light, there’s just nothing better. Andy and Vicki are from the Bay Area and familiar with our crazy unpredictable weather and were such troopers. With a dress change and a dress Vicki thrifted for 20 dollars, Vicki totally embraced the mud and rainy weather.

C + N eloped last week at the beautiful Cannon Beach in Oregon. The fog slowly rolled in on their wedding afternoon as they got ready amongst their closest family members. They stayed at an Airbnb right on Cannon Beach, which was perfect for their first look. They had their ceremony with family and friends on Indian Beach with the beautiful black pebbles and driftwood, and shared cake on the tall beach grass. I couldn’t imagine a more beautiful wedding day!

In my opinion, one of the most beautiful places along the Oregon Coastline to elope would have to be Cannon Beach. The romantic coastline with its sandy beaches and large rock formations makes for a beautiful backdrop for your elopement. This guide will help you envision your dream elopement.

I’ve been shooting non stop weddings and elopements lately and even my adventure shoots have been arriving in long dresses which has made it hard to capture movement. I really wanted to have a full session shooting with a slow shutter, ZERO expectations of anything being perfectly in focus. I wanted rolling in the grass, running as fast as you can and gripping each other tightly. I was so excited when this couple responded willing to do it! With a brain that immediately wants to create when inspiration hits, I was so grateful for them coming out to spend the afternoon with me!
