Engaged: Brad & Gabby | Analisa Joy Photography | Southern CA Photographer

Happy Monday everyone! I am so excited to share my favorites from Brad and Gabby’s engagement session. I recently just met these two on their photo shoot and I enjoyed capturing the effortless love that they share. Brad is from Texas and he has this natural Southern charm about him. It’s sweet to watch how much he adores Gabby and it’s evident in the way that he is always smiling, kissing, and hugging on her. Gabby is outgoing, bubbly, and has such a fun spirit! She has the ability to make you feel like an instant friend which I always appreciate. I met these two in Santa Monica at a park only a few blocks away from their home. After exploring the park we headed down toward the beach and we were greeted with a gorgeous sunset! They chased the birds, cuddled in the sand, and splashed in the water. We had many “Notebook” moments and it was so much fun photographing the joy that these two have when they are together. I feel very lucky to be their wedding photographer and I’m already counting down the days until they say, “I do!” Congrats Brad and Gabby!

I love her smile! So joyful!

How cute is this fringe dress?!

Found this awesome tree in the parking lot… You never know what will you inspire you mid session! 

Surrounded by dumpsters and trashcans, but we couldn’t pass up the “Fun” sign!!

My favorite color scheme all in one photo! That pale teal is my all time fave!

Love this!
