Cactus Garden San Diego Engagement Session: Ivy and Bryan, Part One

Ivy and Bryan are a couple who's interests I can relate to: lovers of travel - they got engaged during their second trip to Thailand! - and complete foodies, often making intricate dishes themselves at home, these two have been together since college. Having met at Arizona State University, they wanted a southwestern vibe for their first engagement session location and I immediately thought of the Cactus Garden at Balboa Park. With plenty of dirt paths and cacti greenery, the Cactus Garden is as much 'desert vibe' as we can get in San Diego proper, and Ivy's red-orange dress completely popped and coordinated so well with Bryan's chambray button up: please file these two under 'super chic engagement outfits' Ha!

Downtown San Diego Engagement Session: Ivy and Bryan, Part Two

Ivy and Bryan's love story started in Arizona as college students and has evolved where they are now residents of the East Village in San Diego, so what better backdrop for the second part of their engagement session than Downtown San Diego. With champagne in hand, an iconic sunset, and decked out in chic outfits ready to take on the town, Ivy and Bryan's San Diego rooftop engagement session is one of my favorite sessions to date!

Ivy and Bryan, thank you for asking me to document this very special time in your lives: no pressure on me, right?! Ha! I adore you both and am grateful to call you both friends. xo, Evmo
