Downtown Laguna Beach Couples Session

Lauren and Brian hold hands and smile on a sandy beach at sunset during their Laguna Beach engagement.
Engaged! Lauren & Brian will be celebrating their wedding at 7° in Laguna Beach, Orange County.

Location:
Downtown Laguna Beach offers a huge variety of awesome and unique backgrounds for an engagement session! We started the session in the downtown area and then did a quick outfit change to finish on the beach and boardwalk of iconic Laguna Beach California!

Vision or Style:
Lauren & Brian have a very classic and modern look. It was perfect with all the backgrounds we had to choose from in downtown Laguna Beach!

Favorite Moment:
My favorite part of the engagement photo shoot was walking around the downtown area of Laguna Beach. I just love the variety of vintage and modern buildings and backdrops for the photos.

Favorite Photo:
It’s so hard to decide but here is a selection of my favorites. Let me know which one is your favorites in the comments!

One of my favorite things to photograph is the relationship between siblings. The friendships, the games, the inside jokes, and all the little things that make this stage uniquely theirs.

I can`t tell you how many families say, "We keep meaning to do photos." Then another year goes by. Then another. Sometimes the hardest part is simply deciding now is the time.

One of the sweetest things about photographing babies is capturing their curiosity. The way they study the world before they can even put words to it. #VallentynePhotography #BabyPortraits #CarlsbadPhotographer #NorthCountyFamilies #MilestonePhotography #BabyPhotography #OceansidePhotographer #FamilyMemories #NaturalLightPhotography

The baby stage is exhausting and beautiful all at once. Somewhere between the sleepless nights and endless snuggles, you`re creating memories you`ll wish you could revisit forever.

Most families don`t call because they need photographs. They call because they suddenly realize how much has changed.
