We’ve been reading Rangefinder since we started this business, so of course we said yes!  The issue is now out in conjunction with WPPI in Las Vegas and we couldn’t be more excited and honored to be part of it all. :)

We’ve been getting more and more requests for maternity shoots :)
This time, it is our dear friends and previous clients, Julie + Roozbeh! Although it rained pretty much the whole session, we managed to get some awesome shots around Santa Monica Pier areas. Here are some of our favorite images:

Nancy + Ed had a truly epic wedding to end our 2009 wedding season! We really felt like we connected like old friends since the meeting all the way through the afterparty. It’s a union between Korean, Mexican, and Chinese culture all in one giant celebration with the bridal party karaoke, hip-hop dance routine, and …..wait for it……  a floating cake!  We had the pleasure of working with an all-star team of vendors and it was a great way to finish the year.
