Sneak Peak Marissa and EJ MASON’s E-session

…with their permission, of course!  So many great shots from this SUPER fun shoot. Seriously, they were up for ANYTHING. Can’t wait to post the rest.

And I Love the way this shot worked out!    I feel like this should be the cover of the next Twilight or something.   We were going to hang a bunch of lanterns in the trees and do some dancing but then Aaron stuck a flash in the lantern and it was magic!   We started with a “lost in the woods” thing but when he pulled her in tight to keep her warm I knew we had what we were looking for with this Kiss.   Shooting these images really brings back the rush of passion I’m always seeking when shooting. I’m still on the high from it.  It’s like manna for the soul. Hope you enjoy!

Olliviah’s Bridals in Huntington Beach

Olliviah and Sam Hull are dear friends of ours, so when they asked if I could grab a quick bridal session after their ceremony in the Hoods BEAUTIFUL backyard, it was a simple, “let me grab my camera”  (and let the actual event photog know i’m taking his bride ;)

BRIDAL
Congratulations again Olliviah!   You look amazing!!

Oh and the cake from Vanessa Smith was incredible.  (My wife did make one of the 20 odd flowers for it too!)

Allie + Joe @ Corona Del Mar

Allie and Joe are such a fun couple.  It was hard to get a straight face on either of them.  I started off by making them dance in front of the camera, which was hilarious to witness.   Check out Joe’s High Kick!  (Sorry Joe, but i couldn’t resist… ) They loved the look of the rocky coast, so I had to take them to my favorite beach.  We started with some classic shots up around the Sherman Library (brings back great memories of my own wedding which was there).  Can’t wait to see them on the big wedding day next year!

Brigit & Brad @ Coronado Island

These are the kind of pictures that just make you exhale, they are so awesome. What a perfect beach wedding! I have been excited to make this post for weeks. A BIG shout out to  Natalie Williams, the photographer, who tag teamed with me again and totally ROCKED it. The pictures speak for themselves. Get ready to exhale. And congrats Brigit and Brad!
