Katherine & Luke | Love in Downtown Los Angeles

April 28, 2013

I met Katherine and Luke a few months ago at the Feet First photography workshop in LA. Besides being outstanding photographers, they are the sweetest and coolest couple, totally in love with each other. The idea of the shoot came up when Katherine said that they got married but never had engagement photos taken. And coincidentally, I told her that my husband and I never had engagement photos taken either! So we did a photo swap. We had a great time taking photos of each other while walking around the Art District and LA River in Downtown LA. Check out Katherine and Luke’s amazing work here. And you can see us through their super talented eyes here. Below are some of my favorite shots of the afternoon we spent together.

Aleece & Tony | Urban Los Angeles Engagement

April 6, 2013

Aleece and Tony story began at the art-dorms of UC Irvine during their freshman year, over 10 years ago. They met and soon started to form a bond over their love for art and… horror movies. They are a very special couple who share an unbelievable amount of creativity and excitement about life and its adventures. And as part of one of their biggest adventures, they chose to get married at the Arches National Park in Utah. They got to know the Arches park thanks to an unplanned detour on their way back from a Daft Punk concert in Denver and immediately fell in love with what they describe as one of the most beautiful places they’ve ever seen. So, I can tell you that I can’t wait to be part of this adventurous wedding! When thinking about a place to do their engagement session, we decided to do it in an urban setting to show their other side connected to the city. Aleece and Tony are preparing a lot of the wedding details themselves, including folding one thousand paper cranes each, as a gift to each other. An ancient Japanese legend promises that anyone who folds a thousand origami cranes will be granted a wish. So they have their wishes of eternal love for each other. It’s so romantic! Below are some of my favorite images from our engagement shoot in LA.

The Rivera Family | Los Angeles Portrait Photography

March 16, 2013

I’ve been friends with Mayra and Fernando since I moved to LA and this is the second time I photograph their growing family. I always have a great time with them and this afternoon was no different. Photographing families in their element is great since you get to capture true natural moments and I love it. It was a wonderful day. The kids were truly having fun, there were lots of laughter and much love.
