Happy Friday, friends! Can’t you tell this e-sesh is already going to be so sweet and stylish just from this first photo Jenna Bechtholt Photography sent over? James + Chelsea traveled all the way to SoCal from Florida for an engagement session in the Mojave Desert, using the landscape around Joshua Tree and inside a quaint desert bungalow as their backdrops.

Just wait till you see all the home decor in the Joshua Tree Cabin. So well designed.

Jenna says, If I could dream up my ideal engagement session this would be exactly it: A combination of an in home session with an outdoor component, great décor and styling, a location in the desert with cacti and a neutral color palette, some yummy golden light, and a ridiculously awesome couple that sip beers and eat spicy guacamole in between shots!

We’re big on desert inspired color palettes around here, so of course we’re head over heels for this duo’s style.

Chelsea’s palm dress was also a little nod to their Florida roots. See more of from this shoot below!

Cheers to the bride- and groom-to-be!
