If you’ve spent any amount of time in San Antonio, Texas, you’ve been to Pearl. The vibrant and lively community is filled with people who love to create and share with everyone around them. Every time I’ve been to Pearl, I’ve been impressed—from the beautiful buildings, talented artisans, and well-maintained public spaces to the high-end, quality feel. There’s always somewhere to see and something incredible to experience at Pearl, which made it the perfect place for an engagement session with a very San Antonio feel.
About The Historic Pearl
Pearl was founded in 1883 and has been a beloved place to visit in San Antonio ever since. One of the best reasons to visit Pearl is that there are so many different things to see and do that you’ll always have a new experience every time you visit. The property offers a little of everything—stunning living spaces, amazing food, creative retail shops, overnight accommodations like Hotel Emma, and a gorgeous weekend farmers market. You’ll never run out of places to go.
One of my favorite restaurants to visit is Brasserie Mon Chou Chou; it’s the number one French restaurant in San Antonio, and offers a peek into the romance of wandering around a European city while enjoying quintessential French comfort food.
I love Pearl as a setting for engagement photos—not only for the special feeling you get as you walk through the streets, but because there are so many places to visit and explore. Wandering through the different buildings and businesses is ideal for a session that feels like we’ve captured a day in your lives together; one that you can look back on fondly for many years to come.
About The Session
My sweet couple, Lars and Lauren, were looking for casual yet romantic engagement photos to preserve this special time in their lives. The weather was calling for rain, but they wanted to move forward with their session, which created a moody, intimate vibe in their photos. The mist in the air felt so serene, and added to the emotion in each photo.
Lars is originally from Europe and he’s a very stylish guy, so he decided to coordinate their outfits for their engagement session. The result was beautiful, with neutral outfits that complimented each other and showed off their style. They looked absolutely adorable together and were truly the perfect match! The colors Lars chose were great for a photo session with many different backgrounds featuring all of the different architecture and areas at Pearl.
To end their engagement session, Lars and Lauren decided to head over to Larder located within Hotel Emma for a coffee date. Larder is an artisanal shop featuring groceries and housemade food patrons can enjoy on their patio. It was the perfect finale to their session as they were able to cuddle up at their table, sip coffee, and enjoy each other’s company while I captured it all on camera.
