This past Sunday I met up with Nina & Rommel at Griffith Park for their engagement session. It was our third attempt at trying to make this shoot happen, after the previous 2 attempts didn’t work out for various reasons. I am so glad we waited because the weather on Sunday was near perfect. My former client and friend, Justin came along to assist with the shoot. Keep reading below to see some of my favorites from the shoot.
We began our session by meeting in the park near the Merry-go-Round. There was beautiful light coming from over the hill. I just loved how it was hitting the trees, grass, and Nina & Rommel.
Nina and Rommel are so much fun. Without my direction Rommel kept cracking jokes making Nina laugh creating several great moments throughout the day.
After a little while we headed up the Griffith Park Observatory. Being a weekend and an extremely beautiful clear day made it hard to find angles without large crowds of people while shooting there. We did manage to find a few places that worked well.
I love the high-key look on this photo.
While on the roof of the observatory I noticed the shadows the sun was creating hitting the Observatory architecture.
