Still catching up here.

I joined Leilani and David on a cloudy day down in Laguna Beach. It was a little nippy but at least it wasn’t raining! We a bit of fun by the water and they did great. Their passion was so evident during the whole session, it was a treat to see. Their wedding is coming up really fast in May and we can’t wait. Photography is so important to them and I’m glad that we’re gonna be there to capture everything that day. Here’s some candy for you!

I’m a bit behind in posting, so I’m gonna try to catch up here.

I actually met Amanda and Colm for the first time last week for their engagement session. It really is an honor when clients hire us without meeting us first. I was happy to say that they were super nice and a treat to hang out with. They both flew down from San Francisco to do some planning and visit family and we squeezed in some photo time before they had to jet home. It was a glorious day in So Cal…as usual. They are getting married this coming August in San Diego. Check out some highlights below:

Finally, I’m ready to go! Here is the lovely couple that brought us the Philippines. I went to college with Woolim and I was so happy to be there for him and Shiloah. Shiloah was great and I tried my best to get her “good side” :) Here’s a sample of our engagement session that we did a few weeks before their wedding. We were wandering around Morato Avenue in Quezon City which is known for their entertainment and night life. Some awesome wedding photos coming up soon!

Some background on this one. In many spots in the Philippines, there are areas that are marked “Bawal umihi dito” which is loosely translated to “Illegal to urinate here” ! Anyway, that’s what that wall said, so I had to set this up. BTW, nothing was flowing :)

How weird is it to say that we finally got a good non-rainy day in Southern California?! Well, that day was Saturday and I was able to join Kimberly and Stephen for their engagement portraits. I really loved their attire that day and thought they looked great going from a semi-formal to a more casual look halfway through our session. After some initial jitters, they became naturals in front of the camera and I can’t wait for their wedding this coming August at Verandas in Manhattan Beach, CA. Here’s a quick peek of what we did…

I was a little early to our scheduled shoot. I looked up and saw the super dark rain clouds and knew that the forecast was right on the money…it’s gonna pour. But I’m thankful that the rain drops gave us about another hour before they decided to join us down here. Here are Shanel and David. So easy going and up for anything. Just like I like it! We got in some good camera time in the woods and on the beach. They are getting married this coming July at the Pala Mesa Resort which should be fantastic. I just love venues that are full of greenery. Can’t wait…thanks you two!
