Photographing Gabby and Tucker’s lovely engagement session right here in beautiful Big Sur, California was my absolute delight! Not only did I get to capture this special day, but I ALSO have the honor of shooting their wedding next year too! These two are so darling and were a joy to spend the day with. Keep reading for their lovely engagement photos!

What Do You Love the Most About Your Partner?

“I love how caring and sensitive Tucker is. He feels and cares so deeply for his friends, family, and me. I also love how driven he is in his work and just life in general. He is always looking to make the best of things.”
– Gabby

“I love how Gabby pushes me to be the best version of myself. I love how we can be each other’s rock after a hard day and nothing makes me feel better than knowing she is happy and content. She is not only stunning and beautiful but she has a mind and heart of gold. Gabby, simply speaking, is the most amazing person that has ever graced me with her presence and I love her more than words can describe.” – Tucker

This is a question I ask all my couples. It always brings a smile to my face reading and then seeing down my camera lens how head over heels you are for one another! Love languages can manifest themselves in so many different ways. Sweet and adoring words are so classically romantic.

In fact, for Gabby and Tucker’s 5 year anniversary, they went to Tahoe and took the gondola up to Heavenly to walk around the lake. They went to a secluded area and he had her read a POEM that he wrote himself! After that was when he was on one knee. Isn’t that wonderful? I love hearing what you have to say about the one you love! In my opinion, one can never say enough!

Big Adventures In Big Sur

One of the many MANY things I love about being a local Big Sur photographer is that there’s so much Big Sur has to offer. Even to locals! In Gabby and Tucker’s adventures up and down the coastline, we found new locations I’ve never seen before! That’s another thing I love: finding new locations with and for my couples. Big Sur has no shortage of these to be sure! And one more thing: Gabby’s white boho dress was absolutely darling! I especially loved her cute hat! Tucker’s outfit paired with hers so well and cohesively.

From A Lovely Engagement In Beautiful Big Sur To…

These two love the beach and are thinking of doing a destination wedding! Coincidentally, all the ideal places happened to be in Carmel, Monterey, and Big Sur- all places where I’m a local photographer! The Bay Area has a spectacular destination feel. I was especially delighted to hear they fell in love with the Perry House! It’s such a quaint and charming venue with a gorgeous view of the Pacific.

Everything about being Gabby and Tucker’s local photographer for their lovely engagement session in beautiful Big Sur was wonderful. And as a shoutout to my 2021 couples: we’re still booking and have a few more spots open! Connect with me here and let’s make it happen!
