orange county engagement session

The minute we sat down for our consultation, it was meant to be. LOVE when that happens. ;) This lovely couple of mine are actually expecting their first baby and am SO excited for them!! They’re going to make AMAZING parents. Can’t wait for their wedding in June at Calamigos Equestrian!

They brought their pup Kaz to the session. Super cute.

What an exciting feeling knowing that soon you will be a family of 4. ;)

Doesn’t Kaz look like he’s having the time of his life?

This picture cracks me up! Preparing for parenthood, H has been practicing holding Kaz like a baby. No joke. I think it’s adorable.

LOVE this pic!

Congrats again guys! See you at your wedding!! ;) xoxo!!

south coast winery wedding

I am SO excited to share with you Julia + Patrick’s wedding at the South Coast Winery in Temecula. I’ve known Julia since we were babies and when she contacted me about her wedding, I couldn’t have been more honored. We immediately scheduled a consultation and talked for hours about life, the wedding and everything in between.

Julia + Patrick!! Thank you SO much for having me be part of your beautiful journey in becoming husband and wife. Your wedding was amazing, beautiful and  full of love. It couldn’t have been more perfect and I wish you guys nothing but the best. Much, MUCH love.

Grab a snack and get ready cuz it’s one doozy of a post. I had such a hard time narrowing down the images!

Sigh. Julia’s dress was simply divine.

The lovely Kelly Zhang team beautifying Julia.

Perfection.

While I was with the girls, Eddie was with the boys.

Waiting for the First Look.

These two are going to make beautiful babies. ;)

I LOVE this photo of Julia.

The ceremony site at the winery was absolutely beautiful. And baby’s breath?? I LOVE baby’s breath!

griffith observatory engagement

The Griffith Observatory is a beautiful place. I can’t believe it was my first time there. I know. I know. ;) I love the City of Angels. And I love Jane + Felipe. Here is part 2 of their engagement session at the Griffith. If you missed part one, you can click here.

Lovely hair & makeup by Jane of glamoh.

At the beginning of our session, Jane told me Felipe NEVER smiles for photos. Like NEVER. She also told me she only has one or two photos of the both of them where Felipe is smiling and that if I can even get ONE photo of him smiling, it’d be a miracle. Um. Do I see a miracle below? ;)

Can’t wait to see Jane on her big day!

Thanks guys for the amazing time! See you guys soon! xo!!
