I had a blast romping around Downtown Los Angeles with Clarisse and Joel. We hit a few cool spots in the Artists District and spent the evening at LACMA. Pretty awesome places and we had some really great light for their session. They are so fun loving and the laughs were non-stop. Just a fun, fun time!

It was one of those special days for Ilyse and David’s wedding. It really was an amazing wedding with so many different emotions through out the day.

Los Angeles Engagement Session : Kim and Brian

      

I had the pleasure of meeting up with Kim and Brian at UCLA. It’s always awesome when we get to shoot at a very special place. In Kim and Brian’s case, where they met! After an awesome session in and around campus, we went to Santa Monica to get some shots at the beach. It’s always cool to get a mixture of scenery and we got just that. Looking forward to their wedding in San Diego coming up this coming August! Here are a few hightlights: < View complete post >

Pasadena Engagement Session : Liz and John

      



It was such a pleasure to capture Liz and John’s engagement portraits in Pasadena. They have this great chemistry that made being around them so much fun. I was able to just sit back, watch them enjoy each other and it was great to see. We were able to walk around a bit and find spots here and there. It’s absolutely my favorite way to shoot. Thanks so much to Liz and John for their trust and for being so open to my suggestions. I cannot wait for their wedding coming up in September! Here are a few highlights:

Joshua Tree Engagement Session : Beverly and Arthur

      

Beverly and Arthur really wanted to something out of the norm for their engagement session. When they mentioned that they really loved going to Joshua Tree, I said “Let’s do it!” It was a bit far from OC/LA, but the striking landscape really made it worth the drive. We were able to find some really cool spots and had a great time. Beverly and Arthur have an amazing chemistry and I was so happy to see them have fun with it all. Here are some highlights from this great day/night:

The Story of Avery

      

So, we have a newborn baby. Same old story, but not really. This time around we have a little lady to add to the family. Avery Rose Garcia was born on June 2, 2011. We were hoping that she would be here sooner, but she really didn’t want to come out. So since Avery was way too comfy in Mommy’s tummy, Tey was scheduled for for a 9am Caesarian in Newport Beach. It was a surreal day.
