David + Jasmine - Engagement - Redlands Ca by Ulices Del Toro

David and Jasmine are such incredible couple. From the minute we met, I knew their wedding was going to be amazing. We met at the J Riley Distillery for their engagement session. It was a special place they loved to go on dates together, we decided to make a date of their entire session.

After having a few drinks, we went to downtown Redlands to explore some of the towns beautiful art installations and get to know each other some more. Their passion and love for each other was clear, and it made for some really beautiful photographs.

We ended our session with some Augie’s Coffee, a Redlands staple and must try when in town. We had so much fun getting to know each other, and this was only the begining!

Jonathon + Lane - Engagement - Beaumont, Ca by Ulices Del Toro

When Jon told me that him and Lane wanted to do something a little different for their engagement session, it came with no surprise. I have known Jon for some time now, he himself is a creative, and I knew when they had chosen us to be their photographers that our time with them would be anything but conventional.

Jon asked me if i knew of any abandoned buildings or areas covered in graffiti. Luckily for them, I had been eyeing this abandoned house, sitting on top of a hill over looking a valley of fields near Beaumont Ca. How convenient. We took our chances by driving out there and checking it out. Lo and behold, our trip was a success. Not only did we find our way to the house on the hill, but we discovered many more abandoned houses and beautiful fields to fix as our setting. We are beyond excited to photograph these two at their upcoming wedding, it really cannot come quick enough!
