Simone + Antonio's Desert Engagement Session | Leighton DaCosta, San Diego Photographer

What is it about love that when captured seems so effortless? Is it grace? Is it the beauty? Or, is it that pause before the breath is taken?

Simone and Antonio's engagement session in the Anza- Borrego Desert was a beautiful and romantic affair captured by San Diego photographer Leighton DaCosta. The couple chose the stunning natural setting of the desert as the backdrop for their engagement photos, and the result was a series of breathtaking images that perfectly captured the love and joy they share.

It was a blast being able to work in a unique environment in order to take a creative approach to this photography session. I hope it brought out the best in Simone and Antonio, highlighting their connection and capturing their personalities.

From the stunning desert landscapes to the intimate moments shared between the couple, every detail was captured with grace and beauty.

I am really fortunate to have been able to capture their love story and the beauty of the Borrego Desert to create a truly unforgettable experience.



Also be sure to check out the highlight reel video below captured by Wade Curry of WJC Media @WJCMedia. It was a great pleasure working with Wade, and I can’t wait to work on future projects with him.
