Shannon and Tony at Torrey Pines State Reserve


if you are looking for a great place to go spend a day in san diego try this place on for size. Shannon and Tony invited us up to Torrey Pines State Reserve to hit the trails for a unique engagement photo session.




by the beard of zeus! the view from the trails atop the cliffs was awesome, not that these two would have known though. we could see right from the start that they are very much in love and the view in each others eyes is all the awesome they'll ever need.







moving on




Shannon and Tony found a sweet front row seat to the Pacific Ocean while walking along the trails.




cliff top seat...check. cool ocean breeze...check. the one you love...check. nothing better to do...check.




shannon and tony were on top of the world! or to be more specific, they were on top of the rock, but it was still a cool place to be.




by now you should know what shannon and tony look like. in case you were wondering what a torrey pine looks like, here ya go. :)
thank you so much for choosing this location shannon and tony. we absolutely love it up there and plan on taking the ohana back up there lots in the upcoming year. speaking of the upcoming year, your wedding seems so far away right now, but june will be here before you know it. we can't wait! see you soon.

These are great! I have always wanted to go there. My husband and I took a day trip to SD and drove to a bunch of different spots. We tried to go to Torrey Pines but got a little lost. Is this the same beach that has a cave or something?

OHANA PHOTOGRAPHERS said...

katy ~ i know. the sad thing is i've lived here all my life, surf at the beach regularly and never been up there! so sad.

marta ~ thank you! they are a fun couple and hot! the best kind :)

amy ~ thanks! the cave is actually at la jolla cove.

Hi Friends,

I LOVE LOVE LOVE your new avatar picture that comes up next to your comment.
So great and SO funny. I must see more. Do share, and soon.

How do you find time to keep up. I'm so jealous. I also have to say
thank you very much for all your warm comments. It means a lot and
helps keep me going.

It doesn't look good for me to make lunch on the 13th. I'm going out
of town and we may be leaving that day. If not, I'll be there. If not,
hopefully Donna will be able to make it this time and she can fill me
in on all that I missed out on. Man I hope I don't miss out.

If you guys ever need any help with a session or a wedding, I'd love
to do. No money, just the chance to see you guys work. I LOVE the
finished images, and I so get your humor. I'd love to see you with
customers someday. Just in case, I thought I'd put it out there.

I hope you have a great night and I do hope to see you soon. Maybe
even that photographer's lunch.

Take care,
Geri
