Helen + Rodolfo hold a special place in our hearts, we’ve had the honorrrrrrr of documenting their love story as it’s unfolded. From the proposal in the Bahamas, their engagement in Joshua Tree, California, to now their elopement in Balboa Park & Terry Pines State Beach San Diego California. Time flies :’)

Elopement in Balboa Park, San Diego, California

We started at Balboa Park in San Diego, California. This park is like a city in it’s own. The architecture is so beautiful, it almost makes me feel like I am in Spain somewhere, so i suppose that makes it Spanish inspired. haha. Balboa park is honestly such a beautiful space to document your elopement, wedding, engagement, or even a fun couples shoot, it takes me back in time.

You don’t have to make your elopement this big extravaganza if you don’t want to- it can be just you two, go and exchange vows some where of significance for you, or somewhere beautiful, or both, and have fun. It’s so simple! Feel your best, look your best, do your own bouquet of flowers if you want, and go out there and enjoy each others presence. An intimate elopement, in somewhere beautiful, could be Balboa Park, or not, is so special.

all the vintage feels in this elopement session

Terry Pines State Beach in San Diego, California

Second Location: Terry Pines State Beach San Diego, California

California sunsets serve as the best backdrop for your elopement session, or couples session, engagement or not. It’s so dang perfect. And when it’s low tide, the shore feels endless and it’s so beautiful! We decided on coming to Terry Pines State Beach in San Diego as their final location for their elopement. The purpose was to close out with a bang, and a gorgeous sunset. It’s so pretty!!!!! There is nothing like beach pictures for your photos with your loved one. They allow so much space to be playful and run around. Having fun is my #1 priority when i photograph my couples. Im a fun photographer hehe.

Their love, the sunset, and the documentation was all brought to you by them- and well yea, by me hehe. I hope you felt something going through this elopement gallery.
