Beautiful lighting and a beautiful family makes for fabulous portraits! The McCarthy family really delivered. Not only did we have a lot of fun, we zipped through the Mission capturing so many beautiful family shots, it was really hard for me to choose my favorites. I guess my one of my favorites from the day was the family walking! I love the way the boys are messing with each other! It is so typical of siblings and every time I look at it, I get a big smile on my face! Enjoy!
One of my favorite things is discovering a new beautiful place in Southern California to shoot! This spot was a fabulous find! The lighting was yummy, the architecture was gorgeous and the couple was stunning! Not to mention that the Ana (the soon to be bride) is Victoria’s best friend (if you ever visited our original location in Laguna Hills, you will remember Victoria the fun & fab photographer)! I had such a great time on this shoot! Victoria supervised and I got to take all of the in between moments. I honestly felt like I was in Europe with the City Hall building as our backdrop. Enjoy all the images!
Anna and I were so fortunately last week to be involved in all of the festivities leading up to Angela and Ali’s Wedding Number one (Wedding number two will be in India, complete with an elephant!) Angela looked stunning is her fuchsia Sari with all the beautiful accessories to match. Ali was so easy going and fun and even let us take a portrait of him getting his hair done by two stylist! You could tell immediately that these two were loved by friends and family alike. I heard so many words of praise for Angela, from her employers to her family to her best friends! And Ali’s family and friends all flew out from New York on very short notice to share the wedding day. For me, the day was a dream come true. I loved all of the details of the ceremony itself and the beautiful colors and fragrances that were a part of the ceremony. Thank you so much for letting us share the day with both of you! Enjoy~
The brides hands!
After lots of planning, and replanning, we finally managed to get Katie and Travis’s engagement session underway. Though the forecast called for rain last Thursday, the sun peaked through the clouds and we stayed dry at the Mission. The Mission is such a beautiful setting for an engagement session! Katie and Travis are such a sweet couple and the camera LOVES them! Travis joined the military recently, just like his Dad did before his wedding, so we didn’t have much time to shoot the engagement session prior to the wedding (which is in March). I love, love, love all the variety of each of their shots. They both brought several outfits, which helped the overall look and feel of the shoot go from casual to seriously sassy! I can’t wait for the wedding! Enjoy!
One of my best gals brought this little cutie out to play last month in San Juan. He was a perfect angel, and at less than two years old, he had already perfected the “Blue Steel”! I just can’t get over his beautiful eyes. I know Mama is never going to be able to say no to this little guy. AND at the tender age of less than 2, he already has a modeling contract. Enjoy!
Could you just die at his yummy lips???
Beautiful Smile!
