While we have great locations listed below, many places originally came as personal suggestions from couples, as their “favorite hangout” – so don’t feel obligated to follow what other couples have done. The best is when you make it your own, and take us to a place we’ve never been!

NOTE: San Diego, Santa Barbara and Palm Springs locations may be subject to a travel fee.

Can’t make up your mind on where you want to shoot your session? We have ideas for you!

In order to have the dreamiest, onelove-style lighting at your shoot, then timing is everything:

On a sunny day we generally begin shooting 2 hours before sunset.
On a cloudy day, do not fear! Lighting is actually soft and beautiful, but we do need to start earlier (appx 3 hours before sunset).
