Kristy and Brian’s Wedding – 1.16.10

I have known Brian for all the many years now as I have been photographing portraits for Loyola Law School’s Alumnae Magazine “The Lawyer”.  One of the many gigs I never have time to blog, but you can always go to www.lls.edu and see the flash aninmation of some of my portraits.  Anyway, Brian has been engaged to Kristy FOREVER  and it was just one of those things where they were both too busy to deal with having a wedding, although it was always in the back of their minds.  I’m not sure of Kristy’s schedule but Brian works full time at Loyola and is also in Law School.  So you can imagine….planning a wedding gets put off, and put off, and put off.  Well….then you get pregnant and you are realize…”oh, we should really get married”.  In this day and age, there is really no stigma to it.  As  a matter of fact, I probably do a shotgun wedding at least once a year, either intended or unintended.  It was actually very fun to work around the belly bump.  Brian’s beautiful bride Kristy was so much fun and I was so happy to get to know her.  This was such a fun, relaxed, intimate, lunchtime wedding.  I just love those.  Their ceremony and reception was at Cafe del Mar in the Marina but we did most of the photos at The Custom Hotel.…which I LOOOVED shooting at.  So hip and modern!

Megan and John’s Engagement Shoot – The Mission and San Juan Capistrano

I am so excited to be photographing Megan and John’s wedding at Rancho Las Lomas in a couple of weeks!  We got rained out several times for their engagement shoot but everything finally worked out and we were able to do the shoot in the incredible scenic Mission at San Jan Capistrano.  Yes, a major schlep for me but worth it!  It’s funny, it’s been a while since I’ve had to photograph a couple of such huge height difference.  For some reason, most of my couple’s recently have been relatively the same size.  The difference creates it’s own set of challenges and advantages as well.  These two are both so photogenic, though…so my job was easy!   There were so many photos I just loved from this shoot.  I couldn’t decide what to blog but here ya go!

The Price Family

I photographed Laura and Will’s  wedding in 2007 and I was so thrilled to hear from her sister Ellen to do a Family Portrait!   I was supposed to photograph her son in NYC a year or two ago but we just couldn’t get it together.  And now, a new addition to the family…Luisa!    It was also so wonderful to see Laura’s family again and take photos parent’s amazing Rancho Palos Verdes Estate.  Super cute family of 4 generations!

Kim and Mark’s Engagement Shoot

Kim and Mark are this fabulous couple who were referred and are friends with Jocelyn and Matt (Blog post Below). We did their engagement shoot both at the business school at UCLA where they met and at the Santa Monica Pier. Can’t wait for their wedding at Sherwood Country Club in April! I’ve never worked there before and it looks fabulous.
