Colleen + Kevin

I'm very excited to release Colleen and Kevin's wedding to you today (finally! I know, I've been busy busy busy!). It was a very gorgeous wedding and I am so happy that I was able to photograph it for them. I met Colleen through a friend who had referred me, and she is the sweetest girl! Colleen was so nice and helpful to me throughout the process and would shoot me emails once in a while to check up, or because she had noticed something I had blogged about and liked. Kevin and Colleen's wedding was fun and full of emotion. I especially loved the moment her dad saw her for the first time in the bride's room, I got a little teary-eyed myself! And the reception dance floor was fun as well, I found myself bouncing around with my camera all over! So congrats Colleen and Kevin! Thank you again for letting me be apart of your wedding day!

Katlin + Johann full post

I have soo many fun things to share about Katlin and Johann's wedding. I went to high school with Katlin so it was nice to meet back up with someone and get to shoot their wedding! Katlin and Johann have been together 5 years (on their wedding day, exactly!) and are so sweet with each other. They were the so laid back during the wedding day and it was relaxing for me, as well. I felt more like a friend than an observer, so that was great. Katlin had seen my "first look" from another wedding, and had decided she wanted to do it as well (much to my excitement! I try and tell all my brides about it). She was still a little hesitant the day of, and asked me to see if Johann still was willing to do it. When I asked him he said "I'll do whatever she wants to do. If she wants to, lets do it." UMM how sweet is that! He was so willing to please her and that just shows their kind of love to one another. Anyways, the ceremony was great, the bridal party was funny, and the reception dance floor was hilarious! Always moving and dancing (and getting a little bit crazy). Enjoy!

















Their first look was so sweet. They both said they wouldn't cry, but how cute it was when they did! The natural reaction of both of them was one of my favorites. We even had to end it and separate them because it got a little bit too emotional to handle. Didn't want to ruin too much make-up. I still love these pictures!

Ashley Lovett

Yesterday I had the chance to meet Ashley Lovett at the Santa Monica Pier for some fun photos. She had seen my work through a relative, and was nice enough to volunteer to model for me should I need anyone.

WELL! She was just super nice. We first met up at Urth Caffe in Santa Monica for some breakfast, and got to talk a little bit. We have a lot of things in common! So that was fun. Then we headed to the pier where I've been wanting to take pictures for some time; so glad I did! And, being girls, we walked the promenade. I had never seen it so I was loving all the stores. So clean and nice. Enjoy these photos from the day!





And thank you Ashley for such a good time!

10 things...

The only thing I love about this Wednesday is that in a few short hours this beautiful new lens will be all MINE! I've been dreaming of owning this lens for almost a year now, and I am soooooo excited to finally upgrade! I get to use it this weekend on my beautiful friend Nikki for her grad pictures, and I am super excited! Pretty pictures to come!

Teaser

FORGIVE ME! I was not able to post my "10 things I love about Wednesday" this week due to an overwhelming lack of work done on my part. I was swamped with projects, errands, and misc things that got in the way. So, to (hopefully) make up for some of that, I'm posting a little teaser from Colleen and Kevin's wedding I did two weeks ago (you remember their previous teaser on here?). Enjoy!



(I do love details!)
