James + Andrea LA Engagement Session

It’s been a while since my last blog post but I thought sharing one of my favorite engagement sessions to date is the perfect opportunity to start blogging again.

Andrea reached out to me wanting a retro vibe for their session and the original In N Out Burger replica was one of the locations for her engagement photos with James. Naturally, I was beyond excited. What southern Californian doesn’t enjoy a classic burger and fries from In N Out? I would highly recommend making a pit stop at this spot in Baldwin Park, LA. Unfortunately, it’s only a tiny museum with patties and buns made out of felt but there is an actual In N Out just a block away where you can enjoy your animal style fries and Neapolitan shake. There was an In N Out employee manning the replica, who was ridiculously friendly and shared some neat historical facts of the famous burger spot. She even walked off site for a while letting us have the place to ourselves for photos.

Afterwards we explored the arts district and downtown, finishing off our session at The Last Bookstore. This place has gotten so popular, that it’s crawling with people not even genuinely there for books but for photos of the clever and Instagram worthy decor. Mind you, we were guilty of the same thing, but that doesn’t make it easier to work around everybody and make it look like we had the place to ourselves.

I had an amazing time exploring with these two. Their style and love for each other is definitely evident in these photos.
