If you know me, you know I love the Coast. Borderline obsessed. Something about being near the ocean makes my soul come alive. I also love beautiful design and spaces that make you feel comfortable. Hello, Meena Lodge. It is the most beautiful space. When the opportunity came along to photograph this styled elopement it was an immediate yes.
The Couple
Echo + Brandon are quite literally the cutest couple in the world. They are both just gorgeous humans, but when you get to know them and realize they are also kind, funny, smart, and crazy in love – you can’t help but love them too. I had to shout out to them first because without their beautiful chemistry and willingness to trust in the process, we wouldn’t be looking at a gallery this fire. I digress, I love these two and I’m so glad I got to photograph their connection.
Meena Lodge
Have you heard of Meena Lodge? If not, please check that link right now and feast your eyes on this beautiful and serene place. Yes, you can rent it for your own adventures. It’s near the Ocean and it’s just as stunning in person as it is online.
I literally did not want to leave this place. It’s welcoming, warm, and relaxing. You honestly just feel good being in there. Having such a warm space as a backdrop for a styled elopement was truly a dream. I am actually dying to shoot an elopement there for real.
SO many thank you’s to Kristie and Craig for creating such a unique and dreamy space for us creatives to get lost in.
