One of my favorite spots to shoot in SoCal is on Balboa Island right next to the docks. So many fun elements to work with! I've know Katie's family for a super long time, in fact, I shot her older sister's wedding waaaaaaay before I started blogging and I've also shot another older sister's family portraits a few times! So excited to shoot Katie + Kyle's wedding this upcoming July!

I have to say, there is something about the 4th image up from the bottom, there are all these subtle lines pointing at them. The eye is lead directly into the couple, its amazing.

Such a beautiful shoot and couple. Your fave is my fave too. I think it's because the light is just across their faces which are so gorgeous and peaceful.

I love it when clients travel all the way to Southern California for a shoot in the sun! Krystal + Yegor came all the way from Maine! Krystal + Yegor are engaged as well as expecting! Krystal had her baby just a few short days after their visit to SoCal, glad her and baby are doing well so far!
I shot the first half of this session at the ever-so-amazingly-designed SLS Hotel and then the second half in Santa Monica on the beach. Krystal + Yegor wanted to couple the shoot celebrating their engagement as well as the anticipated coming of their first son. Congratulations to them in both instances, what an exciting time in their lives!

Justin and I shot this session or Rachel + Todd in San Francisco! I was DELIGHTED to take a quick trip to San Fran for this engagement session, especially because I LOVE the food and city life there! Any excuse to travel to the Bay Area is a good excuse to me!
Rachel + Todd were fun & playful, we had such a sweet afternoon with them!
Sara said:

'Tis the season! Everyone is engaged and everyone wants their engagement photos to be take in preparation for the big wedding day. What a fun time of year for Amelia Lyon Photography, so busy shooting, it's awesome to have a full bucket and a full schedule!















Had such a hard time choosing one, so I'm choosing two favorite shots of the day! Love these two photos together as a diptych!
Justin and I shot this engagement session of Tiffany + Wylie at a park we've always loved. So many elements to work with, it was sweet!

I love the playful nature of the picture near the tree. Hand held heads together. Reminds me of scenes with small children, bashful even.

Glad I got to work with Bekah + Yohan shooting their engagement session. We shot this session at the Griffith Observatory overlooking Downtown LA. I was a bit nervous because the only time Yohan + Bekah were available for the shoot was at 11am and mid-day lighting is a challenge, but I faced the challenge head on and LOVED it!
