If you are in the market for your engagement photo session and are not familiar with this particular part of Orange County, you are missing out on a real treat. Just as you drive onto Balboa Island on your left-hand side is a location that brings that Cape Cod atmosphere to Southern California. Lido Marina Village Engagement Photos in Newport Beach by Three16 Photography will provide you with truly beautiful keepsakes.

Lido Marina Village is home to several various types of shopping experiences, food and beverages, and things to do. The village starts off at Newport Blvd and extends to the Newport Beach Harbor. The dock area on both levels has that look and feel that you are walking along the boardwalk that you would find on the east coast of the country. Boats docked in the harbor make for great backgrounds to your engagement shots. In fact, most of the area makes for some great backdrops. One other aspect to consider is the renting of electric boats that we can putt around the harbor in and get more photo opportunities with the ocean front properties behind you, as well as the beauty of the ocean itself. Pure perfection.

A couple of items to be aware of if you opt for this location is their dock space availability is on a first come, first serve basis and because the dock capacity is limited, there are no guarantees once we arrive that there will be availability to do the shoot. But it is worth the try.

In addition to the Lido Marina Village, there are many other nearby locations to have additional photos taken at. Just across the street is the Lido Theater and of course if you continue driving down Newport Blvd, we will start hitting places such as the Balboa Fun Zone, Newport Beach Pier and a variety of beaches.
