This fabulous cover shot by Eight20 Photography

Here’s my full page ad!  Ziva was such a gorgeous bride!

Here’s all the bio information. Here’s my little “about me” section!  They also used one of my images to introduce the photography section. I love that I’m featured on the Great List!!!!

I love this image from Alyssa and Jeff’s wedding.  Such a beautiful way to decorate for the cocktail hour!

Love these spreads on bridesmaids and groomsmen.  My images are the lower left groomsmen pic from Meg & Judson’s wedding.  The other image that’s mine is Andrea’s bridesmaids from the Westlake Village Inn!  It’s featured in the middle on the bridesmaids page.

Two really great spreads!  The image of the church & La Venta Inn are mine!

Love the details & engagement sessions!  My images are the purple Roberto Cavalli’sLauren + Matt’s Santa Barbara engagement session in front of the Arlington theater.

My featured wedding was Karmela & Sal! Thanks to Sera from the Dezign Shop for the amazing florals & details. She is amazing!

Pasadena Wedding Photography

I had the pleasure of photographing this amazing wedding for the extremely talented Meghan Aileen.  This was such a beautiful wedding mixed with modern details and rich in tradition.  The getting ready and reception was held at the Pasadena Westin hotel.  The church and portraits were taken at the neighborhood church in Pasadena.  My favorite part was the lion dance!  There is nothing like experiencing your first lion dance with a face full of lettuce!!!! I loved it!
