Thinking about your engagement session and not sure where to begin? First, head over to our past engagement session discussion post for what to expect for the perfect engagement session with the help of Sawyer Baird. Next, peek through these adorable photos from a real engagement session by Carmen Santorelli in Venice. This bride to be, Juliet, has some serious style and we are in love with the Jen's Pirate Booty (sold out- similar here) gown she chose for her photos! Could Juliet and Ryan be any sweeter? Carmen flawlessly captured the playfulness these two exude and the extent of their love. We bet their wedding will be stylish and oh-so-fun...

From Carmen Santorelli: "Juliet and Ryan met in the enchanting city of Venice, California. On their first date they strolled through the Historic Venice Canals, then found themselves on a rooftop gazing at the most beautiful sunset! At that moment, they both knew, something magical was about to happen... When Ryan proposed to Juliet she had no idea. He blindfolded her and took her to the Venice Canals where they had their first date. It was so romantic and when he got down on one knee was just magical. Juliet and Ryan wanted to shoot their engagement session in Venice where their story began."
