San Francisco Engagement Session | Carly & Carlos

Engagement, Portraits

Baker Beach Engagement Session | San Francisco | Bay Area Wedding Photographers | Laura & Rachel Photography

San Francisco engagement sessions always so dreamy! The light, the views, the magic of the city, always takes our breath away. Carly and Carlos we’re referred to us by one of our past couples since they’re getting married in North Carolina later this year, but since home is San Francisco, we just had to fly back to California to capture their engagement session!

Starting along the Lyon Street steps, where Carlos actually proposed, we walked, twirled, and danced around the gardens and overgrown ivy walls. We literally felt like we were in another country!

An outfit change and short drive later, we ended with the most spectacular sunset at Baker Beach. Oh, these two just stole our hearts! They’re absolutely perfect together, melting into each pose with ease and grace…. it SO incredibly romantic!

After this session we cannot wait for their Wilmington, North Carolina wedding at Wrightsville Manor, and our first time working alongside Kickstand Events! The lineup we’ve already heard about sounds like a dream team!

This shoot was a joy and we loved every minute of it! Carly and Carlos, let the countdown begin!

The actual proposal spot beneath the eucalyptus trees overlooking the bay was a must have photo spot!
