Why it Pays to Travel for Your Engagement Session

There are several key factors that come into play when you’re trying to achieve dreamy e-sesh captures… finding a photographer you love and feel comfortable with, curating your style, and scouting that perfect location. The latter being what this sweet couple made the trek for, from Texas to California. They of course, nailed the fashion and beauty with TEAM Hair and Makeup and chose to work with the incredible Rebecca Yale to boot, so the results are dishing out all the heart eyes.

From Rebecca YaleAlex and Chris came all the way from Texas to California to photograph their beautiful Spring engagement session in the beautiful rolling hills of Santa Barbara and Santa Ynez. Alex chose four incredible outfits, a mix from casual to gowns to perfectly suit the gorgeous backdrop of Central California. We began the session in the Santa Barbara botanical gardens exploring the redwood grove and fields of white flowers. Next we headed over to Santa Ynez to photograph in the beautiful Sycamore Allee among the giant live oaks at Kestrel Park.
