Enchanting Engagement Photos at the Coastal Ritz-Carlton Bacara
We love a romantic and playful engagement shoot and Chris J. Evans helped to create just that while working with today’s featured couple. The photo session started at Santa Barbara’s Ritz-Carlton Bacara luxury resort. The bride-to-be wore a dark blue silk dress with heels while the groom-to-be kept it more casual in dark jeans, a button-up, and white sneakers. The two took loving photos outside the resort strolling on the brick walkways surrounded by the natural landscape and in front of the building’s gorgeous architecture, including on the site’s iconic stairs.
From there, the couple made their way down to the beach, but not before an outfit change from the bride-to-be and a few photos on the sandy path tucked between lush greens and yellow flowers. Chris J. Evans captured a few magical shots while the couple ran and twirled in the sand while the sun began to set. Before the session was over, the husband even got behind the camera himself to take a few pictures of his fiancée.
