Engagements
53 postsI had such an amazing time at Malibu Creek Engagement Session with Kelly and Mason a few weeks ago! This was my first time ever shooting medium format film mixed with digital, and I must say, I'm hooked! Kelly and Mason were just as excited as I was when I shot a few frames of film. Everything about this afternoon was perfect. The love Kelly and Mason have for each...
I am so unbelievably fortunate to have clients like Kelsey and Sam. These are the people who make me love what I do. We knew going into this Ventura engagement session that there was the possibility of rain, so the entire week leading up to it, we would text back and forth, checking up on the weather status. It didn't matter though, we were gonna shoot regardless and needless to say,...
You know when you meet someone and you feel like you've know them your whole life? Well, that is exactly how I felt with Daria and Dewey at their McCormick Ranch engagement session! Right off the bat, I knew our friendship would continue on after their wedding. My main goal during an engagement session is to have my clients relax and enjoy themselves. There should be zero stress, as it's a...
Christina and Adam live in New York, so naturally, you'd think that a visit to California for their engagement session at Walnut Grove would mean they could enjoy the sunny weather that we're known for... but not this time! The day before our scheduled engagement shoot, it was windy and raining like crazy, but luckily, it stopped right in time for us to hang out and take some photos. We wound...
This is exactly why I have my clients choose their engagement session locations! Christine had two locations in mind - Arlington Gardens and Downtown Pasadena. Well, these are now going to be some of my favorites places to shoot for the future! This past Sunday was nothing short of perfect; the weather was perfect, the location was perfect, Christine and Robert were perfect…oh, and the Philadelphia Eagles beat the New England...
What an awesome day it was at Rocky Oaks Park last week! Carly and Matt were so much fun to hang out with for the afternoon. I always have my clients pick their engagement session locations - I do this, because I believe the place that they pick tends to reflect them the best! Carly passes Rocky Oaks Park every single day on her way to work, so when I asked where they...
I had so much fun working with Kaitlin and Ryan a few weeks ago for their engagement session at Walnut Grove in Moorpark, CA. These two are so clearly in love, and I think that truly shines through in every photo. Kaitlin and Ryan met when they both worked at California Pizza Kitchen and they said whenever they go back there, it’s like one big family. I love that! I...
I had such a great time last week with Kelli and Jamie in Calabasas for their engagement session. They were extremely outgoing and a breeze to work with - what more could I ask for?! They came prepared, on time, and totally relaxed! During our shoot, you could really see how truly in love Kelli and Jamie were and are. Whether it’s Kelli’s infectious smile or Jamie’s wicked awesome hair...
I continue to be so extremely lucky to photograph such amazing couples. Grace and Matt came prepared!... And when I say prepared, I mean they brought a tent! I can’t stress enough to my clients how much I love when they bring props! Even if it's only for a few photos, I think it adds so much character. Grace and Matt were true pros - so relaxed and confident, it...
This engagement session was so special to me. I’ve known Stephanie practically my entire life, who would have thought one day I’d be photographing her wedding! Stephanie and Rudy (and their two boys) were so much fun to hang out with, the photo shoot was such a breeze! Not only did I have beautiful subjects to photograph, but Peter Strauss Ranch in Agoura Hills is such a picturesque location with...
