Crystal Cove, in Laguna Beach is an ideal location for a professional photographer to take engagement shots.
Most engaged couples look for beauty, variety, and accessibility when selecting the location for their engagement photo shoot. Crystal Cove State Park is an excellent choice for this type of photography because as a park its natural beauty has been consciously preserved. In addition, a number of settings are available-such as: beach, woods, tunnels and quaint buildings. The park entrance fee is modest and is central to significant Orange County cities.
Many of Orange County’s beaches have been heavily developed. Thus, it is often difficult to get a beach engagement shot with a panoramic view of the beach and the ocean without including some distracting beach houses. This is not the case at Crystal Cove. While there are a few old beach houses at the entrance, the beach is large and it is easy to find a background that includes a large stretches of sandy beaches, rocky cliffs and ocean waves.
In addition to beach shots there are number of wooded areas. One of the most accessible is the path that leads from the parking lot down to the beach. The path is downhill along a beautiful forested and flowered preserve. Thus, engaging shots can be had before the actual beach is ever reached. At around the midpoint along the path, between the parking structure and the beach, is a long tunnel. A memorable and artistic shot can be had at the mouth of the tunnel with the sunlight streaming into the long dark cylinder. Directly in front of the entrance into the beach area, there are a number of pastel blue, red and purple wood buildings. Shooting in front of these building creates a rustic country feel.
All of this variety at Crystal Cove is easily accessible. Crystal Cove is only a short drive from Newport Beach, Laguna Beach and Newport Coast. Unlike many other beaches in these cities which charge hundreds of dollars for a photo shoot permit, Crystal Cove only charges $50 (at the time of this writing). However, before scheduling a couple should call (or have their photographer call the park to confirm a time), there are some times when the park is not available to photographers.
Crystal Cove is a wonderful location to take engagement pictures as it is beautiful, varied, and accessible.
