Nicholas Canyon Beach Engagement Photos

I love new locations. I had never shot at this beach before and am so glad that this couple requested it for their engagement photos. It is a special place for them which is always my preference when I do engagement shoots. I find that if the location has meaning for you it always translates emotionally into the photos.  It was cool and cloudy and moody with no sunset to be had whatsoever...which mattered not at all.

While editing the photos I just really started loving the black and white for this one...I am a little obsessed with black and white at the moment. I have another couple who is doing their entire wedding album in black and white right now and it is going to be spectacular.

We had such a ball doing this shoot that I can't wait to shoot the wedding at the fabulous Bel-Air Bay Club in the fall...in both color and black and white of course!
