Long Beach Elopement Photographer for Creative Photo and Video Love Stories: our favorite ideas!

  • Before the ceremony: we spend part of the morning walk through the Earl Burns Miller Japanese Garden for couple portraits, or bridals. 
  • First Look: at Long Beach Museum of Art. 
  • After the ceremony, smoke bomb: let's go for an adventure at Sunken City in San Pedro.
  • Gondola Getaway: A private boat tour through the Naples Canals we follow your boat with our drone shots.
  • Aquarium of the Pacific Glass Tunnel: Underwater wedding portraits? We do that, too.
  • Rent a Duffy boat
  • Get a drink at Secret Island Tiki Lounge: A hidden tiki bar designed as a tropical escape with Polynesian decor, strong themed cocktails, and a dark, immersive interior atmosphere.
  • Eat a street taco together: we’re foodies who know the best trucks in town
  • Art-District Speakeasies: Head to the East Village Arts District for high-end cocktails. The neon lights and brick alleys are perfect for late-night, "visual biography" style portraits.
  • Harbor Water-Taxi Escape: Instead of a car, hop on the AquaLink water taxi and say goodbye to your guests among the waves.
  • Signal Hill (Hilltop Park):  Views extend to the Santa Monica Mountains, Catalina Island, and downtown Los Angeles.
  • The Peninsula Jetty (End of Ocean Blvd): A boardwalk runs along the ocean side.
  • Shoreline Aquatic Park: If you want a classic Long Beach postcard moment with the  Queen Mary, this is the spot!!!
  • Belmont Veterans Memorial Pier: Walk to the end of the pier and you’ve got 360 degrees of open water in every direction.
  • Bluff Park (Ocean Blvd): Long stretches of grass overlooking the water with retro streetlamps.
  • The Industrial Wetlands: Perfect for candid shots at the sunset.
  • Colorado Lagoon: The calm, salt-water area acts as a perfect mirror for sunset colors.
  • Boathouse on the Bay: Waterfront Restaurant where every single table has a view of Alamitos Bay, and the patio sits right on the water.
