Los Osos Couples Portrait Session

sydney-josh_200-7

Ahh, nothing like a Los Osos Couples Portrait Session ~ it is my hometown, after all! Which also means that I know pretty beautiful locations to capture couples portraits at, such as Montana de Oro State Park & Sweet Springs Nature Preserve. But you didn’t hear that from me… πŸ˜‰

Speaking of beautiful, the lovely Sydney & Josh here really brought their A-game to our photoshoot! Our conditions weren’t exactly perfect ~ in fact, the winds were so fierce that they nearly knocked me over a few times. But when life gives you lemons…you make art! We worked with the gusts and created gorgeously cinematic shots simply by exploring around and letting Mother Nature do her thing. Scroll down for the highlights and enjoy the fun!

You can also peep the full couples portrait gallery here. πŸ™‚
