Balboa Park Engagement Photos

I’ve said it five times by now, but wow wow wow Balboa Park is a special place. If you don’t want to venture too far but get variety in your images – this is THE place. From the luscious cactus garden minutes away from the zoo, to mini-jungle spots, to dope Spanish architecture… there is nothing not to love about Balboa Park. And yes, cactus can be luscious. 😛

 
 
Merissa + Jacque

One little snippet from their story that stuck with me: they were brought together because they shared the same ex… if that’s not serendipitous I don’t know what is. All I know is that THAT part of their story was meant to be. Merissa and Jacque share the most beautiful love, light and happiness. It pours out of their eyes when they look at each other and makes me so giddy for them. 

THANK YOU to all my couples who come to their photoshoot with good vibes and the words “we trust you” rolling off their tongues. Merissa and Jacque not only opened up to me, but they came with the most badass style! Dressed in all black (yes yes yes) they added in a little flair with a cool brimmed hat, a luscious bouquet and a custom leather jacket donning the words “ride or die.” I ADORE YOU BOTH!

Mer + Jac are BFF’s with Laura over at Fawn Events, who will (obvi) be designing and planning their wedding day. She’s also part of the wedding party, so that’s a real treat for me! (Hint hint, check the Instagram Stories this weekend for mad behind the scenes action).
