Wedding.
I must first say that I thought the church was beautiful! I loved the style of it.. a mix of traditional but still somewhat modern… and I loved the lighting! It was a great start to a beautiful and fun wedding! Vivian’s color scheme was red and done beautifully! And her furry shawl was to die for! So cute! Anyway~ here are some favored shots from the church!








The reception was at Brookside Golf Course near the Rose Bowl in Pasadena. The banquet hall had a nicely lit gazebo waiting for us… and we took advantage!



I love to cry at weddings… so touching sometimes
Well Vivian and Albert definitely had me sniffling during their dance. A large amount of Vivian’s family was overseas, so they Skyped during the reception. I got some tender photos of Vivian’s emotion and of Albert comforting her.



So many talented family members and friends performed for Vivian and Albert during the ceremony and reception… only seemed right to get the ring shot on the piano…

Once the dinner had been eaten and the cake was cut, it was time to “cut a rug” out on the dance floor! I know that was cheesy but its totally true!




There were soooo many more images I liked but I cant put them all up. I do want to end with a photo of Vivian saying good night to her family.

It was more than a pleasure to be a part of Vivian and Albert’s very personal wedding day. It was very special. Congrats to them!

Wedding.
Hey all! Just wanted to share that little kisses have been added to packages! They have been so popular with clients I decided to make them a bonus to select packages! Whats a little kiss you say?? Its a 4×4 mini of your full size album! They come in linen or leather and are flush mount just like the regular albums. Little Kises are the perfect gift to a family member or friend who wants a keepsake of your day, or even for your desk at work



When I met Donnette for the first time, we really clicked. We talked for almost 2 hours over lunch… and Heath was just as awesome. During the engagement session, we really enjoyed strolling down Abbot Kinney in Venice. It was a relaxing time and I think we got some awesome shots too.









And lastly, their Save The Dates! Craig’s design, my photo

Really looking forward to the wedding in May! With as much as they have been so far, I know its gonna be a good time.

Travel.
In November, Craig and I took his younger brother on a road trip up to northern California to check out some colleges. We stopped in San Francisco! It was my first time there! I had a great time! I loved riding the classic cable car and visiting the different Forts. My favorite was Fort Point under the Golden Gate Bridge. We also had a chance to go to the very awesome Alcatraz. Take a look:





I cant wait to visit again for longer! What a great city

This engagement shoot was soooo much fun! My hubby and I met up with Michi and David at Disneyland! We spent the day getting together at various times to get some great shots throughout the 2 parks! We spent a large bit of the day all together just hanging out, being casual, and snapping shots too
Here are some favs…








After the session, my very talented graphic designer (and husband), Craig made them some Save The Date postcards! They loved both of these 2 designs. Photo by me of course


Michi and David are tying the knot in San Francisco, CA. I know she will be a beautiful bride! Congrats to them!
