{griffin | portrait}

The Griffins had their third session of the year in Pasadena for a more modern urban look. They all were a bit tired from a rough night of partying the night before in celebration of Carolyn’s birthday (happy belated birthday). But as always we still got some stunning images. They are all so photogenic and the kids are very cooperative, for the most part, lol. I always enjoy photographing the Griffins and am thrilled at how wonderful the images always come out!

{felice productions | vendor}

I had the pleasure of meeting with Felice Keller last week and I just love the idea of what she does and had to share. Felice Keller Productions writes personal songs with the help of hit songwriters for your special moments in life. Weather its your wedding, birthday, engagement, anniversary, Bar/Bat Mitzvah, baby, company or tribute she can customize a song that is personal to you. I thought this was the coolest thing ever and what better way to personalize something than have a one of a kind song to cherish for a lifetime. For our brides out there this is perfect for you first dance. Felice actually found herself promoting this idea after her own wedding. She just couldn’t find that perfect song for her to walk down the isle to and thought why not create my own. So with the help of songwriters she made the perfect song for her and her soon to be husband. How awesome is that! We are always looking for ways to make things personal and unique what better way than a personalized song. Check out her promo video below, it is so cute!

{brooke & nick | wedding}

We started the day with Brooke and her girls at Nick and Brooke’s home. Although we were a little behind we got some amazing shots with Brooke getting ready. She even did a few fun classy boudoir shots before we headed to the church. Brook and Nick got married at Lady of Guadalupe in La Habra, a beautiful church with thousands of wonderful spots to get creative. I could have spent all day there, but unfortunately they had mass right after and we weren’t able to get back inside. Good thing we got a few before the ceremony started. Brooke and Nick allowed plenty of time (2 hours) in between ceremony and reception to allow for photography, thanks guys. The bridal party was awesome, so cooperative, easy going and fun. I had a great time photographing with everyone. Brooke and Nick were chill and up for anything we asked, which always makes photographing easier. We got some really stunning shots and had a fantastic time. The reception was held at South Hills Country Club in West Covina, another great location. The site was very elegant and the red details added an attractive touch. The party was kicking and the DJ was amazing. We had a terrific time with Brooke and Nick and the wedding was marvelous.

























{cindy & andrew | wedding}

Cindy and Andrew got married at Pacific Palms Resort a beautiful location in the City of Industry. From the outside it looks like an office building, but once you walk in the lobby it is gorgeous and the ceremony site and golf course have amazing views. Both the indoor and outdoor locations have wonderful spots to photograph and some fun hidden ones that we took advantage of. Cindy and Andrew had a nice short ceremony and the release of the doves added a wonderful touch. They opted for no bridal party, which allowed much more time for family shots and romantics. We had a fun time and got some wonderful shots.
