You could say that I am mildly obsessed with Lizards Mouth Rock trail in Santa Barbara, Ca. It’s hard to not be though, and it is definitely one of my favorite places for an engagement session, or a picnic, or a walk. After showing Rachel and Jon some pictures of this incredible place, it wasn’t hard to convince them that it was the perfect place for us to photograph their engagement. Rachel and Jon are getting married next October at Bella Vista Groves in Fillmore, Ca; so having some grandeur views of Santa Barbara was the absolute perfect juxtaposition for the grandeur views of Santa Clarita we will have then.

Rachel and Jon were met back in College, and Jon says that from the first moment that he saw Rachel, he knew that she was going to be the one he married. There is nothing sweeter than love at first sight, and the way that these two look at each other still, you can see that how much love there is. 5 years after meeting, Jon proposed under the starry Cabo San Lucas, Mexico sky. I am so excited for their upcoming wedding, and can’t wait to continue capturing these two and all of their love.
