When Angelica and Jacob decided to capture their love story, they chose the stunning Elena Gallegos Open Space in Albuquerque, New Mexico. This picturesque location provided the perfect blend of natural beauty and romantic ambiance, making their engagement session truly unforgettable. During the session, they surprised us with the joyous news that they were expecting, adding an extra layer of magic to an already special day.

Why Elena Gallegos Open Space?

Elena Gallegos Open Space is a gem in Albuquerque, offering panoramic views of the Sandia Mountains, lush meadows, and serene desert landscapes. This diverse scenery makes it an ideal spot for engagement photos, providing a variety of backdrops that can cater to different styles and moods.

Timing is Everything

We scheduled Angelica and Jacob’s session during the golden hour, just before sunset. The soft, golden light during this time of day adds a warm, romantic glow to the photos, enhancing the natural beauty of the surroundings and highlighting the couple’s emotions.


Capturing Genuine Moments

To ensure the photos felt authentic, we encouraged Angelica and Jacob to interact naturally. Whether they were sharing a laugh, stealing a kiss, or simply enjoying each other’s company, the genuine emotions and candid moments created stunning, heartfelt images that truly reflect their relationship.


Styling for the Session

Angelica wore a flowing, lightly-colored dress that complemented the natural tones of the open space, while Jacob’s casual yet stylish outfit of a button-down shirt and jeans matched the relaxed, outdoor setting. Their attire not only looked great on camera but also made them feel comfortable and confident.
