Romantic Southern California Styled Anniversary Session

The inspiration for this anniversary styled shoot was the couple’s bond of marriage. They have been together for 9.5 years and have been married for 3.5 years. Their marriage was built on their faith, which was the inspiration for the verses that were hand painted on wood. Since the couple was also long distance for a short while during their college years, the shoot incorporated love letters as a symbol of their steadfast love.

The husband is half Hispanic and his wife loves Spanish architecture, so the venue, “Rancho Las Lomas”, was a perfect fit. Despite the fact that the venue is quite large, it has a very warm and intimate vibe , which truly helped capture the couple’s love.

Get inspired and check out this styled anniversary session below, as beautifully captured by Kayla Illies Photography.
