The Jeffrey Open Space Trail in Irvine is one of our favorite Engagement session locations. It has several backdrops from a modern steel bride, to a more natural dried out rock bed surrounded by flowers and trees.

Kelly is an acting client of mine, so we have known each other for quite a while; I knew she would be a lot of fun! Her and her fiance Preston did not disappoint. They were all smiles and laughs throughout our shoot. Kelly and Preston radiate warmth and happiness. I loved capturing them being playful with one another, which included perfecting their dance dip!  Kelly had fun with her attire choosing two flowing dresses, with white sneakers to add a touch of personality.

Kelly brought along her daughter Presley, so we could sneak in a few family photos which I was happy to do. What a cute family they are and will be officially this year when they say their I do’s—we can’t wait! Kelly and Preston’s friend came along to help watch Presley, while we photographed the couple's portraits—always great to have another set of hands to help. In a welcomed and surprise appearance, Kelly’s parents who were passing through the area stopped by to support the pair as well.

I hope you enjoy perusing these engagement photos at the Jeffrey Open Space Trail as much as I enjoyed taking them!
