Jessie began Melissa and Ryan’s Manhattan Beach engagement session along the charming Greenbelt path, where the tree-lined trail and soft coastal light created an intimate, romantic start to their story. As they strolled hand in hand beneath the greenery, she captured candid laughter, quiet glances, and sweet in-between moments that felt natural and effortless. The session then flowed down toward the sand, where the iconic pier stretched into the horizon and the sky began to glow with warm sunset hues. With the ocean breeze in Melissa’s hair and Ryan’s arms wrapped around her, Jessie framed them against the golden shoreline and pastel skies, preserving every tender touch and joyful smile. From the lush calm of the Greenbelt to the breathtaking sunset at the pier, each image beautifully reflected their love and the magic of a Manhattan Beach evening.
