What's more romantic than kissing barefoot on the beach?
At Sunset Beach in Zuma the day was flawless, and
Ashley and Danny laughed and cried their whole way through the day into the evening.
I know we'll be seeing these guys again for more milestones in their lives.

Denise & Josh E-Shoot Pasadena

2011-11-15T02:30:00.000-08:00

Denise and Josh chose their favorite places in Pasadena to shoot. An awesome bar, Rocket Fizz, and the surrounding neighborhood park. They know how to have fun and be goofy with each other.

I think their pics really show who they are.

We can't wait to shot their wedding day.

E-Shoot: Armando & Carolina , Downtown Los Angeles

2011-10-20T22:37:00.000-07:00

We went all over down town LA with Armando and Carolina. There are so many places to shoot that we literally shot till the sun went down.
One of their favorite famous movies shots was a must on the bench.
These guys are so elegant, downtown was a perfect place for their engagement.

Morgan & Matt Wedding

2011-10-03T16:55:00.000-07:00

Beautiful Morgan. I loved the way the way it looked like she had angel wings in the church. Even though these guys have been together for a while, you wouldn't know it by the way they looked at each other. After the ceremony we went to Occidental College where there were so many places to shoot them. We had such a fun time walking around with them and the wedding party taking tons of fun and goofy shots.

Amy & Brad Wedding -Gull's Way, Malibu

2011-09-26T00:05:00.000-07:00

Amy and Brad were wed at Gulls Way. This beautiful beach house had the glamor elegance and style mixed with the warmth of comfy that was ideal for the union between these two. After an emotional ceremony with lots of tears and laughter, they definitely knew how to have fun and kick up their heels and dance the night away with everyone.

Slywia and Brandon grew up and went to school here in Huntington Beach. So it was very fitting to shoot them on the school grounds. These guys are so cute and playful together and are so in tune with each other. We'll be shooting them again on November 5th in there big Polish wedding. Can't wait :)

Arlyne, Dante & Austin~ Crystal Cove Beach, CA

2011-08-30T00:02:00.000-07:00

This Crystal Cove Beach shoot was fantastic. It was our first time there to shoot. Arlyne and Dante were super low keyed and really easy to shoot. The tide pools where full of sea creatures and Austin could have spent all day looking and poking at things. He was a cool 9 year old with tons of energy. It was fun trying to capture glimpses of his personality. We definitely want to go back here.

Amy & Brad E-Shoot

2011-08-29T23:53:00.000-07:00

We went to El Matador Beach with Amy and Brad. It was the first time we had actually had the surf so high that all the caves were covered and the wind blowing like crazy. These two were totally great about it, even though we all got soaked a few times we ended up getting some wonderful pics.
We can't wait to shoot their wedding day on Sept 10th 2011

Vanessa, Jacob & Bailey Wedding

2011-07-25T23:54:00.000-07:00

Vanessa & Jacobs wedding day was full of events. After we left the church we went to this awesome cool old bar in Eagle rock area called The Verdugo Bar. These guys had met each other there. I love this bar. It is one of those unassuming bars and from the outside looks like a dive bar, but once you enter is surely magical! We then headed off to Occidental for the reception where they were met by Bailey for some family pics. Vanessa kicked off her bridal shoes and changed them for a pair of worn yellow Toms. If you notice the cake, Bailey is on top of it with them.

Cynthia & Juan Carlos and his 2 lil girls :)

These guys had so much fun on their wedding day, and we had just as much fun shooting them.

The San Fernando Mission had all the ideal elements for a Catholic ceremony, and then off we went to the Odyssey.

We had perfect weather for the day and plenty of time to shoot.

I think this is a match made in heaven!

Beautiful Liana. This is my friend and hairdresser with her husband Ole.

The bun in the oven is Sawyer. I love taking preggy shots against a black backdrop, I just think it makes for such serene and tasteful pics to frame on your wall.

Sara & ShaunTeasers

2011-07-08T17:22:00.000-07:00

On Sara & Shaun's wedding day it threatened to rain all day, and did a little sprinkle here and there. We were able to shoot some amazing pics of everyone outside before the ceremony, but just when Sara was coming down the stairs the sky opened up. But no worries. The Sterling Hills country club where so quick to move everything inside and all went well. You can't stop love from happening.

Sara was one beautiful bride!

Mollie & Zach E-Shoot, Monrovia,CA

2011-07-08T02:25:00.000-07:00

This shoot was a lot of fun. We went up into the hills in Monrovia to a wonderful foresty park.
Mollie and Zach are just a great couple. We hit the library and walked about in downtown Monrovia where these guys grew up.
We can't wait to shoot their wedding in April next year.

Amy & Eduardo-Occidental College Wedding April 23rd 2011

2011-05-15T22:15:00.000-07:00

Amy and Ed had a wonderfully unique wedding.
The details were a beautiful combination of Buddhas and lots of ferns and roses. It was such a serene setting for their life as newly weds to begin.

   It was a gorgeous day to get married.
   The colours Amy chose were perfect,
   and she looked like a princess in turquoise.

This is one of my fave pics. They both just pop out so nicely
against the dark background. What a stunning couple!

  These guys are best friends with a twist. They also happen to be in love. So perfect!
  We had such a great time working with them.

This is one of my choice pics. I love the colours and it worked perfectly with their black clothes.

Jason is into cool old cars, so next time we see them we are hoping he'll bring it. Maybe they can dec it out for the wedding. Hint hint ;)

Gorgeous day in Laguna. Natalie and Justin both look fantastic and were a lot of fun to shoot.

The wind was fabulous, it created the ultimate feel and captured Natalie's natural beauty.

We were lucky enough to have some clouds roll in later that day giving us a surreal look and the perfect pics.

We were supposed to go and shoot up in laguna town, but didn't make it off of the beach.

It's hard to leave when these guys are so romantic, can't wait to shoot their wedding day.

Love is all you need

2011-04-16T02:51:00.000-07:00

This day was the crazy day on March 20th that rained over 7 inches.

This may have gotten some brides down, but Amanda and Joshua's wedding went unscathed.

Looking glamorous as ever, they had one of the most touching ceremonies, lots of tears and laughs.

(Click on image for larger version)

Amanda has such a beautiful classic look. We are hoping to shoot them again soon. You will have to wait and see what we do!

Joshua had some really fun stuff up his sleeve, and come reception time, he serenaded Amanda while his 3 best men stood in support and sang back up.

These guys knew how to have fun, and it was a joy shooting their day.

Amanda & Joshua. The Moreno Mafia look!

Chloe's Bat Mitzvah March 5th 2011

2011-03-18T11:52:00.000-07:00

It was a perfect day in the Marina for a Bat Mitzvah.

Chloe... what can I say. This 13 year old is so wise. Not only was it a pleasure shooting this special day, but it was also a reminder of what is important in life. Chloe's speeches regarding her religion, family and friends were wise beyond her years, spoken with passion, honesty and from the heart.

Linda & Marc Wedding-Buerge Chapel

2011-02-14T11:31:00.000-08:00

Linda and Marc's story is one that is so romantic it made me cry.

They met in grade school, went on trips with their families together, and spent many occasion hanging out. Linda finding her Barbie's more fun to play with at 11 than the boy who waited patiently for her. They would see each other throughout the years, and then one day these two friends realized that they weren't waiting for anyone else to come along and that they had fallen in love. This was a love worth waiting for.

Tani & Craig Wedding 2010

2011-01-20T21:59:00.000-08:00

Tani & Craig,

These guys grew up and both still live in Burbank, so it was very fitting that they were Married at St. Finbars.

The ceremony was beautiful and you could feel the love inside the church.

We had so much fun on their wedding day, we went from the church to Pasadena where we took some amazing shots of the wedding party. Craig and the guys were wearing killer socks.

I love this classic Beatles shot...this is one of my personal faves. These guys were one of the coolest couples to shoot.

and also romantic......

In this shot we took it feels like we are in Europe, caught the cyclist perfectly as the wedding party gathers outside the Pasadena city Hall

Natalia & Abraham Wedding Nov 20 2010

2011-01-09T00:31:00.000-08:00

It's Sunday evening, Abe & I get to 5:30pm mass at Our Lady of Refuge and I'm stressing about wedding planning. Mass has already started mind you and I'm worrying about my Wedding Dress. I Turn to Abe and say "I just want everything to be perfect." Abe turns to me and with a soft whisper says "Honey, It is going to be perfect, as long as at the end of the day I'm your Husband and you're my Wife."

Abe and Natalia are such an inspirational couple. Natalia a teacher and Abe a former Red Socks player, they are a divine pair. I couldn't help taking a few lines from their wedding blog. There is so much love in the air one cannot help feeling a sensation of complete bliss around these two.

We shot the ceremony at Saint Martin and the reception at Mount St. Mary's College where Natalia is continuing her education.

Nothing makes sense when you're not here

As if my whole world disappears

Without you what's the point of it

A Simple Man and a Simple Women.

Castaways, Burbank, CA
On their wedding day the rain came down, but this did not dampen Marisols spirit. Instead of taking the ceremony inside, they went ahead with their plans and said their vows in the sprinkling rain. This just confirmed their love for life and willingness to take whatever comes their way. A great start to the life that they will share.. We just adored shooting them.

were crashing. It was the perfect

setting for Candace, Dan and their

two beautiful children. We had to

concentrate on shooting cause it was

wonderful just to watch them play.

They are truly blessed. Ali & Noel
