Engagement Session: Kenny & Amy | Newport Beach, CA | Analisa Joy Photography

I loved photographing Kenny and Amy’s engagement session at my favorite beach! My family has been visiting Newport since I was a kid and I feel so lucky to live close by and use it as my backdrop. Kenny and Amy met in high school and they became official during their junior year. After they graduated, Kenny and Amy both attended UCI (which I love because my husband graduated from UCI as well). Going to the same college wasn’t planned, but the schooling was the best fit for both of them individually. After college, these gained a passion for travel and they even got to release lanterns at a festival in Thailand. That has always been on my bucket list! They day after their 9th anniversary, Kenny proposed to Amy (even though he had the ring for 4 months leading up to it) and Amy describes it as the perfect proposal! I have loved getting to know these two and I feel so lucky to be their wedding photographer. I’m already counting down the days. Congrats Kenny and Amy!

How cute are these two?

I love that golden light!

Such a gorgeous day! We couldn’t have asked for a prettier setting.

Dancing at sunset. Always a favorite of mine!
