Scoops & Sunsets: A Playful Corona Del Mar Beach Engagement

When it comes to planning the perfect Corona Del Mar beach engagement, most couples think of the sand and the surf. But for this Vincent and Mae, the magic started somewhere a little sweeter: Stella Jean’s Ice Cream.

A Sweet Start at Stella Jean’s Ice Cream

There is something inherently nostalgic and effortless about a date at an ice cream parlor. For this session, we skipped the stiff poses and headed straight to the couple’s favorite local spot.

The energy at Stella Jean’s Ice Cream provided the perfect backdrop for their playful chemistry. Between flirty glances over melting scoops and natural laughter that filled the parlor, the session felt less like a photoshoot and more like a standard Friday afternoon for them. Ice cream has been their go-to treat for years, making this location a genuine reflection of their relationship.

90s R&B Vibes at Corona Del Mar Beach

As the golden hour approached, we traded the waffle cones for the coastline. We made our way down to the shore for a Corona Del Mar beach engagement shoot that felt straight out of a classic music video.

The goal? Pure 90s R&B vibes. With a stunning peachy sunset painting the California sky, the couple ran into the warm Pacific waters. The atmosphere was romantic, cinematic, and slightly addictive to watch. Whether they were splashing in the tide or sharing a quiet moment against the orange horizon, the connection was undeniable.
