I like to think Balboa Park is just filled with hidden wonders. I’ve been there so many times and it still never fails to surprise me with a corner I’ve never been around. It’s pretty cool to come here with different couples and see how they experience the park with each other.

When Michelle and Brent started dating, they met up at Panama 66, a bar in Balboa Park, pretty regularly! I totally recommend starting your engagement photos somewhere familiar and comfortable (and grabbing a beer never hurts!), so Panama 66 was our meeting spot. After grabbing a drink and goofing around, Michelle and Brent changed into another outfit. Michelle asked me if her dress was “too Miss Maisel-y” and I immediately responded with “There’s no such thing”.

These two are total magic and seem to bring out even more sparkle in each other. Laughing and hanging out with these two was such a treat and I can not freaking WAIT for their wedding at BLDG 177. IS IT APRIL YET?!?
