When Ashley and Ross told me they wanted their engagement photos shot at their favorite local bar here in San Diego, I knew we were going to create something special. As a San Diego engagement and wedding photographer, I'm always excited when couples choose locations that truly represent who they are.

When I asked Courtney what she loves most about wedding planning, her answer perfectly captures why she's such a joy to work with:

"I personally love seeing loved ones and different families and cultures come together to celebrate a couple starting their lives together. I also love that each wedding is completely unique, and the couple can personalize their day!"
