Morning, friends! Did you catch yesterday’s Catalina Island wedding? Pretty unique, huh? Today we’re all about what leads up to the big day, and one of those moments is the engagement shoot! Seeing all the possibilities for locations, styles, and poses can be really overwhelming, but we’ve definitely noticed a theme when it comes to those most iconic have-to-have shots. Such as… that clifftop shot with the flowing dress. You know the one. Read on for the rest of our fave portraits to capture during your shoot!
