Hailey and Bryan had such a fun engagement session!  I loved exploring this fabulous orange orchard. Of course, Bryan brought his harley and we took some great pics on the bike!  Can’t wait to see the Harley again at the wedding :)

I love these sign in books. I use these fine art albums as wedding sign in books. It’s such a great way to display your engagement images.  This wedding had 72 guests, so this album was designed with just enough white space so that guests could leave a little message year book style.

Part 1 of Polly & Chips beautiful Del Mar wedding is up on the blog!  What a gorgeous day for a wedding on the beach!!!  The wedding was held at the Powerhouse right next to Jake’s.  I love Polly’s dress!!! She looked amazing :)

Part 2 to be posted soon :)

Jaclyn and Henry got some amazing California light for their engagement session!  We met up at Pasadena City Hall, one of my favorite places to shoot.  It’s just so gorgeous!!  Not as gorgeous at New York City though ;)  I just love the Apple Jacks & Oh Henry shirts!  I need some candy :)  I can’t wait for their wedding in June!

I had the pleasure of shooting with some great photographers during out Bolero style shoot for The Wedding Yentas.  Nicky got a great collection of Bolero’s from a variety of Etsy vendors.  The Wedding Yentas is displaying some cute look books on the blog today!

Doing an engagement session in LA around 5 can be a challenge! We survived the LA traffic and made it to the beach!  We got some great twilight light :)  It seems like everytime I’m losing light it’s high tide and I’m losing land just as fast ;)  I think Stacy & Niall look amazing!  Two young kids in love :)

It rained on Michele & Kurt’s wedding day so we couldn’t get most of the portraits we had planned on.  They got engaged underneath the pier in Manhattan beach so we planned on doing the first glance underneath the pier.  Unfortunately, it was entirely flooded.  So here we are, a month later, and walking around Manhattan beach like it’s the wedding day ;)  I sure had fun!!!  Michele & Kurt were such troopers running around in the sand & stopping traffic on the street. I think it was worth it :)  Best day after session ever!
