NOTE —

If your blog post's featured images are fairly low resolution, you may want to delete the top image canvas. Your blog will still look gorgeous, but the top banner section looks best when you upload an image that's 2500px on the long side. You can also use our fave TinyJpeg to make them small so your blog posts still load quickly!

The Pearl in San Antonio Engagement Photos

The Pearl in San Antonio makes the greatest venue for engagement photos! It is a gorgeous downtown area that has so much going on. Their website says “When you visit Pearl, we’d bet you won’t ever walk the same path twice,” and I’m sure that’s correct! Lillie, Trey, and I had so much fun walking around and finding the best spots for pictures. When you scroll down you’ll see we found beautiful fountains, unique architecture, and even a stunning waterfront. I will definitely be returning to the Pearl for more photos, so if you like what you see, reach out to me and let’s get your session on the calendar!

You might be thinking, if this place is so amazing why are there no people in the background of these photos? Well, that is the biggest reason why I love to shoot at sunrise! A sunrise session is always my recommendation to couples who want to avoid crowds. It can be a bit tough to get up so early in the morning, but you can see from these photos that it was so worth it. These two wore the perfect outfits and were natural in front of the camera! I will never stop talking about the importance of your outfit at your session. Even if you chose the most beautiful place for your session if your outfit clashes with the scenery it can throw off the look of the photos. If you’re unsure of what to wear to avoid this, just ask. I’m always here for tips before your session.

Feel free to browse through some of my favorites from Lillie and Trey’s engagement session.

I hope you enjoyed these Engagement Photos at the Pearl in San Antonio! If you would love a session at this location or another gorgeous spot click here, I would love to chat with you! For more engagement session inspiration click here.

BEHIND THE LENS

MEET lois

Art with soul. Moments with meaning. Work led by intention.

Photography has always felt like second nature—an extension of how I move through the world. I grew up on a country property in Oregon, where most days were spent outside—filming home movies, dreaming up scenes, and photographing whatever caught my eye. I studied viola and piano, and that early love for rhythm and light still shapes the way I photograph today: with presence, intention, and feeling.

I’m the second youngest of eight, raised by Romanian immigrants who taught me to dream boldly and love deeply. Over the years, I found myself drawn to beautiful, refined storytelling—creative in approach and rooted in capturing true emotion. In 2021, I officially launched Lois M Photography. Since then, it has grown into a full-time business anchored in story, soul, and imagery that reflects life at its most honest and beautiful.

Today, I live just outside San Antonio with my husband, our three kids, and Luna, our mini dachshund. I find joy in the everyday—faith, family, music, strong coffee, and the kind of love stories that endure.
