Rodeo Drive / LACMA Engagement Photos

Photographing Marja and Noel’s engagement portraits at Rodeo Drive in Beverly Hills and LACMA (Los Angeles County Museum of Art) made for a great collection of classy, urban engagement pictures, which suits them well. I was lucky to be able to spend the afternoon with such a great couple. Less than three weeks after this engagement shoot, I photographed their wedding in Newport Beach. It was especially nice shooting at LACMA because my father worked as a foreman on the recent renovations and additions to the buildings there. This was the first time I’d been there since the changes.

I love how obvious it is that Marja and Noel are totally in love and 100% comfortable with each other, even in front of a camera with plenty of people around. The next shot exudes genuine love.

Marja and Noel’s clothing choices and coordination were perfect for the environment at LACMA. Dressing up a bit for your engagement session can make the photographs that much more special and different from the casual photos you have together.
