Dar and Nazli

Wow, it sure is starting to get warm outside. I can't wait for Summer to finally be here and with that Summer weddings!

I am about to head out and run some errands but I wanted to quickly blog some recent photos.

This weekend I was able to photograph Dar and Nazli and their beautiful Persian wedding.

I got a call from Dar on Thursday asking if I could shoot their wedding this Saturday. Fortunately I was available to shoot that day so I said "Sure thing!" and I am sure glad I was able to because it was such a great time.

Here are just a few of the hundreds of photos taken:











Time to head out...
Keep a look out for more in the next few days!

Julie in the Forest

One of the biggest challenges as a photographer is getting people to feel and act comfortable in front of the camera, I like to think that this is one of my strong points. I just love to get to know the people I am working with and really try to capture their personality.

Yesterday I was able to fit in a quick shoot with a lovely lady, Miss Julie. Julie is a dancer at California Institute of the Arts and is what I would call ' a natural' in front of the camera. We got to frolic through the trees and shoot some great photos together.











I hope everyone is having a great week!

Moving along

Wow, life has been pretty busy lately. I just booked a wedding for May 25th that I am very excited about, the couple is wonderful and we are going to have a blast. Other than that I have just been shooting and working on this fun business of mine (which I love).

Anyways, I thought I would share a glimpse of another shoot I just did with Niyousha and Eric who are getting married December 27th. The shoot kind of took place last minute so there wasn't much daylight left but it was still loads of fun, they are adorable together.




Hope everyone is having a great week!

A Happy Couple

As promised here are a few shots from a recent Engagement shoot. Chuck and Elisha were great fun to work with and I love their 'greaser' style outfits.








Much love!
