Brit+Bran Engaged!

5 Comments

These two, I pretty much love them. I met Brit a year ago when we did a shoot of just her, which was also just a few weeks before she got engaged…in Paris…to an incredible guy. Yep, pretty much my dream. They came up to San Francisco from LA to do an engagement session and I don’t think it could have been more fun! We found amazing new spots even in locations I’ve shot in tons of times and they were totally up for anything. We got so many awesome shots that you’ll definitely be seeing more of these two soon :).

Be excited. The awesomeness has just begun.

Sara & Ben

I love this family. And not just these two beautiful people. I’ve photographed Sara’s whole family…several times. And yes, they’re all just as stunning as her!

I also love a good trade! I met up with Sara in LA and she gave me a private cooking class! When Ben got home we went out on the town, and then up to their rooftop! They live in an amazing apartment right in downtown LA. They watched Michael Jackson’s funeral from their patio. I was drooling over the amazing amenities their building had to offer and it made me so want to move to LA.

LOVE this one! Definitely favorite.

Another favorite!

I had to post this last one again. Awesomeness.

I had such a blast with the cooking class and discovering cool spots around LA! Thanks so much for the trade Sara!

The Day Before

3 Comments

Some of my out of state weddings choose to do an engagement-type session the day before their wedding so they can get some cute pictures together without being dressed up and I always love it! Angelin and Ryan got married in Florida (well, in a boat off the coast of Florida) and the evening before we went out to the pier in Cocoa Beach and did some shooting!

Angelin and Ryan have been together since high school! They were obviously so comfortable and in-love and fun around each other. It’s always so fun to see how two people in-love interact and be able to capture that :).

This first shot is one of my favs!

I often have people tell me they love how a lot of my portraits seem more candid and photo-journalistic. I think this is a good post to point out that, while most of these pictures seem pretty non-invasive, I actually posed them (told them where to put their hands, to look at each other, to look at me, how to sit/stand, nuzzle each other, etc) in most of the shots and then let them do their thing so it looks natural and unforced. I think they did a pretty good job with all my orders :).

upI’ll probably be blogging less in the next month or so I can get all my client’s proofing galleries, but I’ll try to sneak in a picture or two every few days!

What I’ve been up to!

I need to apologize for neglecting my blog so much lately! I’ve been traveling like crazy the last few months and have been working on TONS of shoots! Washington, San Francisco (twice), LA, Minnesota, Salt Lake City, St. George, not to mention my home in Houston, and this weekend I’m headed to Virginia! Next week is Utah :).

Here’s a taste of what I’ve been doing!
