Let’s Talk About… Previews

And here we go! Another installment of ‘Let’s Talk About’! I am all about movies. I love movies. I love going to the theatre. I love eating my hotdog and nachos. I love when the theatre is empty and no one’s around to bother me when I’m watching a movie. I love sitting in the middle of a row so that my neck doesn’t have to turn a little to the left or right. I get major neck pains when I do! I promise! I love the surround sound. I love catching movies the week after it premieres. No lines. No crowd. I love romantic comedies, comedies, action flicks and drama. I love going to the movies during the day and leaving the theatre with the sun still out. But besides all that, I love previews. Yes. Previews. As much as I love watching movies, I have to see previews. It totally makes movie day 101 x’s better.  I mean seriously. How can this not excite you?! Ah the simple things in life. (image shot with my palm pre.)

Anyways, my friend and I were looking over the times and realized I’d we’d miss the previews if we caught the early show (we still had to grab dinner). Um. No. We gotta watch a later showing. Can’t miss previews. She looked at me as if I was crazy. So I thought I’d blog about it. Cuz I thought it was funny. And because previews really are that important! I saw ‘The Switch‘ today with Jennifer Aniston and Jason Bateman. Dun judge. Romantic comedies rule my DVD shelf. But I was totally disappointed. Just watch the trailer. That’s as good as it gets. But I gotta say, Jeff Goldblum and Juliette Lewis totally saved the movie. LOVED his character. So funny. And ofcourse Jason Bateman. He’s a cutie.

All righty. Thanks for tuning in and see you at the previews!

Sandy a la Mode - totally a preview whore too! :) always excited to see what’s coming out next!

lydia {ever ours} - i LOVE previews too!!! except scary ones…then nvm. let’s go watch a movie during the DAY soon. exams are over next week….well for now at least.

Adrienne Gunde - Oh my goodness, previews are like, almost my favorite part of watching movies :) I watched Eat Pray Love yesterday and I literally turned to my sister and said “I LOVE PREVIEWS!” when they came on. Makes the whole movie experience infinitely better!

scraps - there’s ANOTHER reason why i LOOOOOOVE you! i love romantic comedies…. i sold all my dvd’s but kept my fave romantic comedies :)

debbie+alex married

Back in July, I had the honor of documenting Debbie + Alex’s wedding. You can see their engagement session here. It was such a gorgeous day with perfect weather! The ceremony and reception took place at the Beverly Hills Presbyterian Church. And a big thank you to my dear friend Serena for 2nd shooting with me that day!

Debbie seriously made a stunning bride. Don’t you agree? :)

Her awesome bouquet made by one of her bridesmaids.

DIY bridesmaid bouquets! Beautiful!

And While I was photographing the girls, Serena was taking care of the boys.

Love this shot Serena got! Who cares about Alex! We gotta watch The World Cup!

Thanks Serena for the awesome shot of Alex!

As I was getting Debbie walking down the asile…

A big shout out to the amazing Kim’s for enduring the 150 degree heat for our family portrait session!  We started the session at the Huntington Library and ended the session at their lovely home. Thanks guys for being so laid-back and allowing me to document your beautiful family. Can’t wait to see  you guys again for Luke’s first birthday!

Yes. Luke is really that adorable. Don’t you just want to squeeze his cheeks?

Love the mood of this image. And I love how beautiful Michelle looks here!

I wish someone could carry me like that! It’s like going to Magic Mountain and riding Viper for free!

Adore the image on the right! Such a gorgeous family!

:) x100

Harold told me he doesn’t smile for pictures. But add a little connie magic dust and his gorgeous wife and BAM! What do you know. A smile. :)

LOVE LOVE these images of Harold and Luke! The boys having a little quality time. And the best part? I love that you can see both their feet in the image. It’s totally like papa bear and baby bear.

This pic breaks my heart in a good way.

First Birthday Rendondo Beach

Hello my faithful and lovely readers! Welcome to my new blog! :) Just wanted to say HI thank YOU to everyone for always supporting and making me feel like I’m definitely not talking to myself. :p

And for the first post on my brand new blog is Warren’s first birthday! Look how happy he is! LOL! Isn’t he the cutest thing ever! Just look at those juicy tears!

Happy Birthday dear Warren!

The beautiful Lie family.

This picture makes me really happy. Especially with the balloons that got away in the right hand corner. It makes me think of  UP.

The awesome details! Love all the games they made for the kids to play!

And ofcourse. What’s a birthday without a candy buffet!

Warren’s doljabi. Hmmmm. I wonder what I should pick…

Hahaha. YES! Warren’s dad Warren will grow up to be a rich and famous pro golfer! Woohoo!

LOVE these fam pics!

I seriously love mommy and me pics. So adorable.

You can just feel the love grandma has for Warren. :)

I end this post with my fav pic of the day. That’s Warren and Audrey’s grandpa. He flew in all the way from Indonesia for his grandson’s first birthday. I really love this image. The way Audrey is keeping her distance to grandpa and how Warren doesn’t even know it’s his first birthday. It’s so awesome to know that 20 years from now, these are the kind of images Warren and Audrey will look at and imagine what their childhood was like.

Happy Tuesday!

scraps - LOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOVE them ALL!!!!!! i knew you’d be able to capture all the GREAT moments :)
too bad u don’t have a pic of me doing a “menchie’s” dance so Audrey would move over closer to grandpa lol… eek! i love these pics i can’t handle it!

Jayne (Warren's aunt) - AWESOME PICTURES!! I am bummed that I missed the party but your pictures sure made up it! Thanks, Connie! :) Can’t wait to see more of your work in the future!
