I am sure you will recognize this beautiful couple!  Last year I captured A.J. asking Dana to marry him at the mission, after that we did a fun engagement shoot at the “Fun Zone” in Newport Beach, followed by a pinup shoot in my studio!  Well, they finally tied the knot and what an amazing affair!  Dana wanted to create a 1940s vibe and she definitely succeeded!  Everything from her dress, to the vintage airplane and car to the photo booth at the event was perfect!  One of my favorite things was the In and Out Burger truck!  Now that is what I call great wedding food!  And of course an AJ & Dana event would not be complete without their baby!  I am sure you can figure out who that is!  Thanks for a ton of fun!

We just got back from Austin, Texas!  It was a great trip and I am in love with the city.  If it wasn’t for my LOVE of the ocean, I would seriously considering moving.  I have a lot of blogging to do in the next few days so you can see what we were up to before I left.   This first wedding was one of the few occasions when I was a second shooter for a good friend of mine Carolyn Rife!   It was a lot of fun to get to work with all the guys and seriously this was a gorgeous wedding party!  I think it is always inspiring to get to see another professional photographer in action.  I think we fed off of each other and I hope she had as much fun as I did.  Enjoy the images.  As you can see, I was working with a lively crew!

My great friend Staci called me up to say that her daughter was getting her braces off and ready to capture her new smile!  I always want to try something different, so I suggested that we go to my new favorite urban spot!  She packed up the car with several “crazy cute” outfits and met me bright and early in the morning.    I think her daughter is stunning!  Enjoy!

I really like to capture several generations of a family and the Reichard’s did not disappoint!  Their parents/ grandparents are in town and they wanted to take advantage of the opportunity by taking portraits in the park.  Even though there was some “harassing” of the photographer (LOL), I had a great time playing with the entire family.   I can’t believe how much the newest member of the family looks like my son when he was a baby.  Maybe we are long lost family members?????  Anyway, enjoy the photos and wave to Grandpa for me!

Okay, so here is a suggestion for everyone out there…… if you see an image you love in a magazine, or other publication, cut it out and show it to me.  That is exactly what happened with my great friend, Sriti.  She had this image that she found and LOVED, probably because that girl LOVES shoes, and she showed it to me.  A week later, we set up an inspired shoot.   This was such a fun shoot for me because I got to be really creative.  I hope you enjoy, and Sriti….. I LOVE the shoes!
