More coming soon, but this is one of my favorite shots of these two fun peeps.

An image from one of my recent engagement session of Monique + Peter in UCLA.  It was super fun!

Yasmine + Jack + Wrigley the dog in Pasadena, CA. I love my job. :)

These two fun-loving people are now my friends.  Sometimes, things in life are easy – You call, you talk, and you meet, and you just hit it off.  Sorry, I am not talking about how they met, but more about how {Frances + Bryan} and I met.  The story about them will be revealed in the wedding post, and the time is not now :).  I had the opportunity of meeting their closest friends in Frances’ Birthday Party, and chatted and thrown around sarcastic jokes towards each other till late.  It was awesome like meeting an old friend, but they’re new.

In looking at their relationship and their friends, 2 words describe it:  They fit.  I can see this when they hug each other, joke around with each other, or just normal “little-things-that-you-do-for-your-love” type of thing.  A fit is a great thing.  Simply.

Locations: Santa Monica Pier,  LACMA

World, meet LOLA.

Here’s a quick post about Michelle + Rudy’s engagement session.  I normally ask my clients to pick the locations for their engagement session, either based on the location that they really liked, or something that is close to their hearts.  The reason I do this is to get the engagement images to mean something more than just beautiful images by infusing things that are true to them.

When I asked this question to Michelle, she answered that whenever they are together they go shopping and hang out at 3rd St. Promenade in Santa Monica – which is a thumbs up for me, since when I needed some exercise I would actually drive up and just walk around there as well :).  We shot in front of stores, in the back alley ways, in front of a construction, top of a cliff, parking garage, etc.  Bottom line is, we had fun and hope you enjoy the images!

Ok, I’m going to save the interesting details for their wedding post!  2012.  Can’t wait!
