I photographed Shannon and her kids this weekend in Pasadena. Shannon loved a previous shoot we did there and decided to have her holiday session in Pasadena. I love shooting there with the old buildings creating lots of texture and wonderful backgrounds. We stuck to a few spots and got some wonderful family shots for Holiday cards and orders. Can’t wait to see what she picks.

Colleen & Connor | e-session
Ventura

I had the pleasure of meeting and photographing Colleen and Connor on the same day. We had talked and scheduled their engagement session all via e-mail, lol. Needless to say we hit it off right away. Colleen and Conner are both very sweet and photographed very well. Colleen says she has never modeled before but based on the wonderful images and ease of taking directions I think she has (at least in another life, lol). We walked around Ventura and just chatted and had a great time (oh yeah and got some amazing images). Too bad Colleen and Connor are getting married and moving out of state and already found their photographer. We would have loved the opportunity to continue onto photographing the wedding. Out of State weddings can be so much fun. Enjoy your images guys and if you change your mind we would love to photograph the wedding, lol.

Molly & Valerie | October 10, 2009
Knollwood Country Club

Molly and Valerie were married at Knollwood Country Club on October 10, 2009, well technically. Molly and Valerie had their event on 10/10/09 but were actually married previously when same sex marriage was legal. They had kept it secret from everyone (as you can see from the bridal parties expressions) and announced it during their ceremony. It was a very special and emotional moment they shared with everyone and I am glad I was part of it and able to capture family and friends reactions. It was a beautiful day for Molly and Val to be married and we had such a good time. The photo sessions were awesome and the bridal party was a riot. I had a blast with you guys and hope everyone else did as well. Congratulations Molly and Valerie.

{ el gran jubileo | product}

This post is a little late, but as they say better late than never, lol. Last month Aldo had a wonderful opportunity to photograph some product shots for El Gran Jubileo a new brand of tequila in the United States. The brand has been booming in Mexico and they decided to launch it here in the States. As most of you know Aldo assists me with photoshoots, but he is a wonderful photographer himself. His passion is product/commercial photography and his work is amazing. With his help and stellar photography skills we are expanding to include a product/commercial side of Transition Photography. He has a few jobs down the pipeline, and hopefully plenty more to come. So stay tuned for more posts.
