Lizette and Conor arrived at their engagement session in Upper Bidwell Park looking amazing, and the bright spring floral bouquet was the icing on the cake. They must have looked happy, because people passing by were consistently congratulating them. The natural spring environment complemented Lizette and Conor, and this allowed them and the love they share to be the main focus. You can view more engagement sessions here.

How They Met

Lizette and Conor are high school sweethearts! They met their freshman and sophomore years of high school; and once they started dating, they did not stop.

The Proposal

Lizette and Conor traveled to Fort Bragg in July 2020 to join Conor’s family for their annual camping trip. Lizette has been on this same trip for the past five years, and she was not expecting anything different from the previous years. Little did she know that Conor had something special up his sleeve for this year’s camping trip! They had spent the whole day relaxing at the beach with Conor’s family and friends, and then they returned to the trailer for dinner. Just before sunset, Conor’s brother and his brother’s girlfriend asked Lizette and Conor to join them on a sunset walk on the beach. Conor executed his plan well. They were right in the middle of taking pictures on the beach, and Conor bent down to one knee just as the sun was setting behind them. When Conor proposed, Lizette said yes!

Lizette and Conor, it was wonderful to meet you in person! I am so excited about your wedding in 2022! You two made my job so easy! We smoothly moved through locations and poses which has provided you with quite the large engagement gallery! It is easy to see how well you two know each other and the close relationship you two share. You did a fabulous job on your wardrobe.

What a wonderful man. I am so excited for you to see some of my many favorites from your engagement session in Upper Bidwell Park.
