El Matador Beach in Malibu is one of the most beautiful and picturesque beaches in Southern California. With its rocky coastline, turquoise waters, and stunning sunsets, it’s a popular location for romantic photo shoots, including engagement sessions.

In January, I had the pleasure of photographing an engagement session at El Matador Beach. My clients, Tina and Aria, wanted to capture their love in a lasting and wonderful way, and El Matador Beach provided the perfect backdrop.

During Tina & Aria’s engagement session, we took advantage of the incredible rock formations and dramatic cliffs by capturing some breathtaking photos of the couple against these beautiful backdrops. The crystal clear waters of the ocean provide a stunning contrast to the rugged terrain. The happy couple had an outfit change into more casual date night wear, which created a romantic and intimate atmosphere.

Tina & Aria’s engagement session at El Matador Beach was just a prequel to their upcoming wedding at the Spanish Hills Club in Camarillo in September. The Spanish Hills Club is a stunning wedding venue that offers a beautiful and elegant setting for couples to tie the knot.
