Bored of Blogs!

noreply@blogger.com (Yvette Galvan) — Wed, 12 Jan 2011 07:11:00 +0000

Yes, I know I've been neglecting this blog. Honestly, I got bored with blogs in general. Most wedding photographer blogs look the same to me. I see so many wedding photographers copying each other, no originality! I got bored of the same old stories they wrote too. So I just stopped reading wedding photographer blogs a couple of years ago. Right around that time I got hooked on Twitter and Facebook, I even tweeted updates during my labor and delivery of our second son back in 2008 LOL! I loved how quickly I can share something with the world with one quick post and go back to my very busy life. On this blog I have to set aside WAY more time to prepare all the content and code for each new post. I'd rather be taking new pictures or spending time with my little boys and that's exactly what I've been doing. I love being busy! I do have lots of new photography to share. I'll eventually be uploading lots of new images to our website and our facebook page (I hope you "Like" our page). I also created a simple Posterous page which will be an easier place for me to share some photography. That's right PHOTOGRAPHY because I am a PHOTOGRAPHER not a writer of boring articles! Ha!

I must share a recent picture of our sons Miles Roman Galvan and Dexter Sonny Galvan. They are growing up so fast! Miles turned 5yrs old and started school (that was a huge life changer). Dexter (Sonny) just turned 2yrs old!

Follow my work in progress. I'll be adding lots of images:

Rainy Day Wedding | Whittier | Maria & Steven

noreply@blogger.com (Yvette Galvan) — Tue, 09 Mar 2010 00:01:00 +0000

We love rainy day weddings! It is so much fun to get creative and try something different!

Here is our favorite shot. It had stopped raining for a few minutes and the sky looked so cool! As soon as we finished this last shot it started pouring rain....perfect timing!

We also took a quick shot as they walked back to their car in the rain.

So you see, rain isn't a bad thing on your wedding day :-)

El Adobe De Capistrano | San Juan Capistrano | Jill & Steven

noreply@blogger.com (Yvette Galvan) — Wed, 03 Mar 2010 09:04:00 +0000

Jill and Steven were so much fun to work with. Jill got ready at her parents' home in San Clemente and then had a beautiful wedding and reception at El Adobe De Capistrano. In the following pics you'll see great work from the following vendors:

Flowers: Tustin Florist (owner Henry Perez)
DJ: Vox DJs (DJ Roderick Gaerlan)
Venue: El Adobe De Capistrano
Make up Artist: Chris Ann Reuter
Wedding Dress: Nazzy's Bridal designs by Nazzy Nazari

Her Christian Louboutin shoes were awesome!

Check out the back of her dress!

She was just glowing in that light!

So cute!

Thank you Jill and Steven!

Taking a moment...

noreply@blogger.com (Yvette Galvan) — Thu, 26 Nov 2009 06:27:00 +0000

Wow! This year flew by so quickly. This was such a crazy year learning to balance being parents of two wild boys and still getting work done. It is still a busy time for us but I just wanted to update our neglected blog and share a picture Roman took of Sonny and I the other day. We took a short break and walked from the studio to the park. This is the same park that I once stood in my wedding dress. That building in the background is where we had our wedding reception. On my wedding day I never imagined that one day we would be playing with our two beautiful sons in the same park and work together in our own photography studio just around the corner. It's moments like these that I am thankful for.
Happy Thanksgiving!

Orange County Engagement Portraits | Jill and Steven

noreply@blogger.com (Yvette Galvan) — Wed, 03 Jun 2009 07:46:00 +0000

Here is a peek at a few of our favorites from Jill and Steven's engagement session!

Oh Boy!

noreply@blogger.com (Yvette Galvan) — Mon, 01 Jun 2009 07:33:00 +0000

Our new little guy has been keeping us busy! Since I can't keep up with his demand to nurse every two hours I introduced baby food a little early. He was ready and is very interested in food! He would grab the spoon to shove it further into his mouth. He would grunt for more and wanted to eat it all up really fast.

Once he was finished with his food he went back to sucking his big toe!

He is a big boy and wearing clothes that are supposed to fit a one year old! The only problem I hope we can overcome is his eczema. You can see some of the rash it on his cheek. It requires constant care and it has flared up really bad with the heat. If any readers out there know any remedies, please let me know.

So now you can see what has been taking up so much of our time (especially blogging time). There are so many weddings and portraits I didn't post during the toughest months of my pregnancy but I'll be posting them all as I get the chance.
I posted two new weddings below:
Andrea & Erik's Wedding
Nasdy & Manny's Wedding
and there are many more posts to come. I'm looking forward to catching up.

Andrea and Erik's Wedding

noreply@blogger.com (Yvette Galvan) — Mon, 01 Jun 2009 02:21:00 +0000

Andrea & Erik had their wedding ceremony at Our Lady Queen of Angels in Newport Beach and their reception at the University Club in the University of Irvine. It was a beautiful day! It also happened to be my birthday and they are a great couple to spend the day with. Roman and I had a blast with Andrea, Erik, and all their loved ones!

Andrea got ready at the Hilton Irvine.

I love her look here while they where putting on her veil...

Her expression was so cute when a gust of wind blew her veil off!

Immediately after that last shot I ran and picked up the veil before it got dirty or a car would run it over. Remember...I have cat-like reflexes LOL!

Chatting with her girls before the ceremony begins.

Portrait time!

Platinum Weddings by Kerrie did an amazing job the entire day. Just look at what a beautiful job they did on the University Club!

The first dance...

The toast...

The University Club has great window light. I love the natural light and detail in this picture.

Not only did Andrea and Erik have a cake but they served apple pie too...both were delicious!

Andrea and Erik, thank you for a wonderful day!

Nasdy and Manny's Wedding

noreply@blogger.com (Yvette Galvan) — Mon, 01 Jun 2009 02:20:00 +0000

Nasdy and Manny had a beautiful and intimate wedding at The Inn of the Seventh Ray in Topanga Canyon. It was such a joy to photograph them since they are so in love! We are so blessed to work with such amazing people such as Nasdy, Manny, and their family and friends.

I love this shot of Nasdy getting ready with her mom looking on.

Ceremony time!

A private little toast immediately after the ceremony.

Portrait time!

Nasdy and Manny were inseparable and having a great time!

They are too cute!

Thank you Nasdy and Manny! Congratulations!

The Engagement: Nasdy & Manny

noreply@blogger.com (Yvette Galvan) — Sun, 12 Apr 2009 19:45:00 +0000

We had so much fun with Nasdy & Manny. We have so much in common with them. We can totally relate to the fact that they work together and run a business together. Their business is Latin Lingo Clothing and they sell some of coolest t-shirts! Pretty soon, they will be a husband and wife team working together! It takes a very special relationship to be able to spend every day working together ;-)

So these first few were shot at the Griffith Observatory. We played with all the cool lines and architecture...

Since they love our use of color we had to find some cool urban spots to deliver! So here you go :-)

Below is the one they will display at their wedding next week. What a great choice!

We can't wait for their wedding! It is going to be so cool!

Brooklin & Dan's Wedding in San Juan Capistrano & Dana Point

noreply@blogger.com (Yvette Galvan) — Thu, 05 Mar 2009 05:54:00 +0000

Brooklin and Dan's wedding was so much fun. We were looking forward to their wedding ever since their awesome engagement session. They were blessed with such great weather last Saturday! It was a perfect day, gorgeous couple, great family and friends and a beautiful sunny day...what more could you ask for?

We started off at Brook's parent's home in Mission Viejo for some getting ready shots.

Check out her dress, shoes, & garter!

I love the detail and texture of her dress.

Since it was an evening wedding, they did a "first look" and portraits before the wedding ceremony. Smart thinking because they had some good light for their portraits!

Check out her beautiful bouquet! Cindy Babuscio Designs did an awesome job on the flowers.

They are just so cute together!

Brooklin is such a stunning woman! What a gorgeous bride!

This was such a great moment before her dad walked her down the aisle.

The kiss!

The reception was at the O.C. Sailing and Events Center in Dana Point. In The Now Weddings and Events did a great job transforming the place.

They had great details!

The looked so happy during their grand entrance.

A sweet moment during their first dance.

We really enjoyed working with our great friend Ron who was doing the video. Roman took a picture of us together at the end of evening :-)

Family of Four!

noreply@blogger.com (Yvette Galvan) — Tue, 24 Feb 2009 08:53:00 +0000

We are getting the hang of being a family of four. Our new baby boy Dexter is known by his middle name of Sonny by the entire family. He is such a good baby. He rarely cries and he sleeps through the night already! Most of the work is getting Miles to be careful with the baby and to get them on a good/same schedule. They do love each other so much already. Miles is very affectionate towards his little brother and Sonny wants to be with Miles all the time. He smiles at Miles and always has his eyes on him to see what his big brother is up to. Here is a picture of them together...

Here are a few more photos of him at six weeks old. I normally don't leave these in color but I love the color of his hair and eyes.

This little guy is growing up so fast. He already weighs 12lbs. and wearing 3 to 6 month size clothes. He is trying to talk and is showing signs of teething already! I'm trying to hold on to every moment of "babyness." Even though my maternity leave is over and I am back to work, I am very thankful that I have my boys with me most of the time (except when we are shooting of course). Life is good :-)

Welcome Dexter Sonny Galvan

noreply@blogger.com (Yvette Galvan) — Thu, 08 Jan 2009 13:14:00 +0000

We are excited to announce the birth of our son Dexter Sonny Galvan born 12/26/08 at 8pm. He weighs 8lbs 4.2oz and he is 21 inches long.

Look at him! We were so surprised to see this little guy with his light hair & light eyes. We were expecting another Miles with the dark eyes and dark hair like us. But this little guy really looks a lot like my grandmother and my great grandfather, he has their color hair and eyes. We are still trying to get used to it :-)

We had a quick and easy delivery which made up for that difficult pregnancy. Here is a shot of me & Miles in a rare "good moment" in my pregnancy.

Here is the holiday card we never got a chance to mail out :-(

Big brother Miles is very excited and insists on calling his little brother "Sonny" (hence the middle name).

Well I was the most miserable with the pregnancy from Thanksgiving through Christmas. I had weeks of contractions and no progress. So when I woke up the morning after Christmas with real painful contractions I was so excited for it to be the real thing.

The last time I'll see my belly like this. I was hooked up this way several times a week!

I have been hooked on my iPhone during all the time I spent in bed this pregnancy. I was putting my labor updates on Twitter! Since I am still in bed lots right now, I'm still glued to that phone!

This is me looking at Roman with my "I can do this" face. I was so scared to have a repeat of Miles's delivery which was so traumatic! I was emotional but I was ready and determined to get this baby out quickly and safely.

Within a few minutes of pushing, he was out safely! Amazing!

Roman (my labor coach and documentary photographer) cutting the chord and taking the picture at the same time! He is so talented!

The nurse took this picture of us together. I just love my Kaiser Baldwin Park "family" everyone there that took care of me is so great!

We called my mom to bring Miles right away. He was so excited to meet his little brother!

We show Miles lots of love so he knows that he's still our baby too.

Ready for his journey home from the hospital...wearing the outfit big brother Miles picked out for him :-)

Okay off my iPhone for now and back to sleep! We have a few weeks of sleepless nights, feeding every two hours, lots of diaper changes, and lots of adjusting to do. This is an exhausting but precious time and it goes so fast!

Happy New Year! Thank you all for the well wishes, wonderful emails, and phone calls. You have all been so great!

See you soon!

Miles' Favorite Things

noreply@blogger.com (Yvette Galvan) — Thu, 20 Nov 2008 05:58:00 +0000

Miles loves to watch Yo Gabba Gabba. I love how Yo Gabba Gabba comes up with cool stuff using Ska & Reggae that Miles loves to dance too (and that Roman & I can enjoy too)! We can tell that Miles has the same taste as us in music which is nice. I guess ska and reggae is in his blood since that has been our favorite music since we were kids.

One of his favorite songs is "Banana" from The Aggrolites which is a cool band because they sound like real jamaican ska. Here is the video clip:
http://vids.myspace.com/index.cfm?fuseaction=vids.individual&videoid=23374386

This is another one of his favorites called "Pick It Up" it is so cute because if you ever listened to The Specials or Prince Buster you will recognize where they got the idea for this clip:
http://vids.myspace.com/index.cfm?fuseaction=vids.individual&VideoID=45902245

Here is a random picture of Miles taken with my iPhone. He's loved everything pirate since he was a little baby. Roman and I have so much Halloween stuff, skulls, and pirate stuff all over the house that I guess it was only natural :-)

What a great moment!

noreply@blogger.com (Yvette Galvan) — Sun, 09 Nov 2008 06:23:00 +0000

I voted early in the day and was so hopeful that Obama would be our next president. We went out to get our free Ben and Jerry's ice cream which was being given between 5 and 8pm. Then Miles spent time playing in the mall play area with a bunch of kids. All of us parents were glued to our iPhones (watching the returns for sure, I know I was). I was so excited to experience the moment I had been waiting for that I saved a screen capture of it on my iPhone!

Roman and I took Miles and hurried home so we wouldn't miss Obama's speech. It was so great! It was a night we will never forget!

Update 11/3/08

noreply@blogger.com (Yvette Galvan) — Tue, 04 Nov 2008 06:06:00 +0000

Halloween was fun. Since we have been so busy, we just took Miles trick or treating in Monrovia. They have the coolest Victorian and Craftsman homes there. We seriously want to buy a historical home there someday. These home owners really do an awesome job decorating for Halloween! Just take a look at one of our favorite Victorian homes...

Miles looked so cute in his vampire Bat costume! He was so excited to spread his bat wings for anyone who would give him candy :-) Yes, that's me and can you tell I'm 32weeks pregnant in this picture?

You can see my 32 week belly better in this picture taken the next day while shooting Natalie & Jerry's awesome wedding at the Castle Green in Pasadena.

Natalie & Jerry's Engagement Portraits | Los Angeles Portrait Photographer

noreply@blogger.com (Yvette Galvan) — Fri, 31 Oct 2008 08:21:00 +0000

I know I am jumping around again and posting things out of order but this e-session was so timely for Halloween!
We are so looking forward to Natalie and Jerry's wedding this weekend! They are so much fun and they are going to have such a unique wedding. We are so excited that they chose this awesome image to display at their wedding. It is always fun to see the older folks reactions :-) Being Halloween weekend it is totally perfect and it also reflects their fun personalities.

Here are a few more of our favorites...

Check out the funky plant car we found!

They are just too cute together!

Can't wait for the wedding!

Happy Halloween!

noreply@blogger.com (Yvette Galvan) — Fri, 31 Oct 2008 07:40:00 +0000

This is our favorite holiday! We are so glad Miles is a "groovy ghoulie" like us and shares in our excitement for Halloween. He was a Pirate last year and this year he will be a Vampire Bat. I'll make sure to post a picture of him in his costume. Roman is a master pumpkin carver and you can see two of his creations below....

Wow has this year been crazy! Time just flew by so unbelievably fast. I still have a whole summer's worth of awesome weddings and portraits to share here. It's great to be busy and all but when you add a pregnancy that has to be monitored several times a week on top of all of that it becomes a little stressful. We are hanging in there and still working like crazy both behind the camera and on the computer. Holiday portraits are in full swing and still doing weddings all the way through the end of November. We will take maternity leave mid-December through early February and we are looking forward to resting and nesting :-) We will still be handling the phone calls, emails, booking new wedding clients, and doing portrait sessions but on a more limited basis during that time. So don't hesitate to contact us :-)

We will keep you all posted!

A Catholic wedding, an Indian wedding, and the Governator?

noreply@blogger.com (Yvette Galvan) — Thu, 02 Oct 2008 21:18:00 +0000

Pranav and Tamara's wedding was such a fun wedding to shoot! They had us start bright and early in Santa Monica at 7am, the Catholic Ceremony was at Saint Monica's Church at 9am, then we shot the Indian Ceremony at a private estate in Malibu, and we spent the rest of the evening shooting there until about 9pm. Yes, it was a long day, the most images we have ever shot, and so exciting! This is a super long post so hang on :-) I am so excited to finally share these images with you all!

Tamara getting ready at 7am! She looks great for not being a morning person :-)

Roman was photographing Pranav in his room...

Tamara checking to see if she could catch a glimpse of Pranav.

Tamara was checking the weather. It was a rainy morning. She looked amazing in this window light.

Catholic Ceremony time...

The rain clouds broke away for the rest of the day. They were so lucky!

Nice moment during portrait time at Santa Monica Beach...

This was so funny! Governor Arnold Schwarzenegger and his wife Maria Shriver were taking their morning walk and stopped to congratulate the couple. We asked if they would take a picture with the couple and the "Governator" did! Maria was too shy to be photographed though...they were both a little bedhead :-) Don't Tamara and Pranav look a little surprised, it was a quick and funny moment!

Luncheon reception at the private estate in Malibu. This was the fastest I have ever seen a bride throw the bouquet...but I still captured the moment with my catlike reflexes LOL!

The Baraat looked like so much fun! Roman covered that while I covered Tamara getting ready for the Indian Ceremony.

Tamara looked so beautiful! I loved all the details and color!

Hindu Ceremony time!

Portrait Time Round 2

They wanted to recreate a shot that looked vintage. So here you go...

Partying Bollywood style!

What an awesome day!

Pregnancy - 27 weeks - Big Mama!

noreply@blogger.com (Yvette Galvan) — Thu, 02 Oct 2008 07:36:00 +0000

I know it is about time I give an update on my pregnancy. This picture is the latest snapshot of my belly taken with my iPhone. I need to get my maternity portraits taken very soon! I have to say it feels like just yesterday it was April and the beginning of my pregnancy and now its October!?! Where did the time go? Even though we are still super swamped we took a few hours off last week to take Miles to L.A. County Fair. We have all been dealing with his Asthma (all new to us) and he was feeling better that day. So as you can see we didn't want him run around much and kept him in the stroller just to be on the safe side :-)

I am still on my quest to catch up on everything during this crazy pregnancy (including this blog). I am still blogging weddings and portraits from May and June! I have a entire summer's worth of amazing images to share here. Next post I will share will be Pranav and Tamara's amazing wedding that was on Memorial Day weekend. That post will be huge...we even had a celebrity appearance!

Brook & Dan - Engagement Session

noreply@blogger.com (Yvette Galvan) — Mon, 22 Sep 2008 04:41:00 +0000

We are so excited for Brook and Dan's wedding. They were referred to us by Ryan and Amy. We met them for the first time at Ryan and Amy's wedding. They are such a fun and cool couple. They are very photogenic too! We love that they trusted us in finding urban locations that totally fit their style. Their wedding is going to be a blast!

10 Year Anniversary!

noreply@blogger.com (Yvette Galvan) — Fri, 05 Sep 2008 22:54:00 +0000

Roman and I have been married ten years today! We've known each other since we were 5 years old because we lived around the corner from each other. I remember him as the the "show-off" in Kindergarden and the bratty boy who sat in the desk behind me in grades 1, 2, and 3. As we got older we became best friends and then fell in love at the age of 13! We have been together ever since. We were together 11 years before we got married! Most of that time was spent with finishing junior high, high school, college, and starting our photography business together. We enjoyed seven years being married, traveling and having fun together before we decided to have kids. Having Miles definitely changed things but life is still fun. We are excited to have another baby on the way too. It is so amazing having our own family now!

Okay I have some funny pictures to share but they are all scans of really bad prints...like this one that Roman's mom took of us with her 110 camera on Valentines Day in 2nd grade!

This was in a photobooth at the L.A. County Fair when we were 16yrs old.

On our way to Senior Prom...

Roman's 19th birthday. His mom was still using her crappy 110 camera and she liked to have him hold a sign with his age up

This was the funniest moment at our wedding. Roman surprised me by putting on these silly glasses with headlights on them and when he went under my wedding dress to remove the garter with his teeth, my whole dress lit up like a lamp! He was still holding my midnight blue garter in his teeth in this picture. It was hilarious!

Here we are with Miles in a photobooth at WPPI 2007. We just love the way Miles looked in these! He was still a baby...he grew up too fast!

Next year we'll have a new picture of us as a family of four :-)

Monique & Scott's Wedding

noreply@blogger.com (Yvette Galvan) — Thu, 04 Sep 2008 20:39:00 +0000

Monique and Scott got married in a beautiful ceremony at Pilgrim Lutheran Church in Santa Monica. They had an awesome outdoor reception at the California Yacht Club in Marina Del Rey.

I just loved the detail of her dress and bouquet.

Monique's little nephew was the ring boy. He is a gorgeous little guy!

Monique and Scott decided to see each other before the ceremony to do portraits. That was a smart decision since the rest of the day was such a whirlwind!

We just loved the vibrant colors!

Roman did a great job capturing the kiss during the ceremony in available light with his 80-200 2.8 VR lens at 3200 ISO. We have been Nikon shooters since the age of 15 and we are loving the latest Nikon technology!

Then we made a quick ten minute stop at Santa Monica Beach for a few more portraits.

We get fun couples with cool cake toppers! My favorite detail at the reception was the cake! Well it is always our favorite detail, we love to take pretty pictures of them and enjoy a slice at the end of the day ;-)

They had belly dancers to celebrate Monique's Egyptian heritage. This is the third wedding we have shot with belly dancers as entertainment but this was first time we have seen the father of the bride get up and dance with them! He stole the show!

Rosa, Erica, & Isabel | Pasadena Portrait Photographer

noreply@blogger.com (Yvette Galvan) — Wed, 03 Sep 2008 06:53:00 +0000

Rosa and her fiancé Victor are a wonderful couple getting married later this month. They wanted to hire us to shoot their wedding but we are shooting Liz & Andy's wedding that day (you will see that wonderful couple's e-session later in the week). Well, since Rosa is a fan of our work she hired us to shoot some portraits of her with the girls she described as "my two bestest cousins who are going to be my Maids of Honor."

We did portraits of them at some of our favorite spots in downtown Los Angeles. We had a great time with these girls!

Rosa and Victor, we wish you all the best on your wedding day!

Here is Rosa being hugged by her cousins (and Maids of Honor) Isabel and Erica :-)

Amy & Ryan's Wedding

noreply@blogger.com (Yvette Galvan) — Mon, 18 Aug 2008 20:07:00 +0000

I met some very special people during the years that I worked in the Cypress College photography department. I had the pleasure of working with Ron and got know him and his family well. His wife Nancy works in the Careers department and that's where Amy worked too. As Nancy and Ron got to know Amy they grew very fond of her and they would always tell me that she would be the perfect daughter. See Ron and Nancy only have two son's and when Amy started dating their son Ryan they were so excited. Ron would tell me how careful he and Nancy wanted to be to make sure not put any pressure on Amy and Ryan's relationship and just hoped it would blossom.

Well they got their wish! When Ryan proposed to Amy last Christmas. Ron let me know right away. He was so excited that Amy was going to be family.

Roman and I were honored to photograph Amy and Ryan's wedding. We knew it would be so much fun, full of wonderful people, lots happiness, and lots of emotion.

The time we spent getting to know Amy and Ryan this past year has been fun too. You can see how awesome they were in their engagement session! Watching those two together you can tell they really have something special together. They are just perfect for each other and it is obvious that they make each other very happy.

Okay now here are some of our favorite images from the day...

Amy being the beautiful, free spirited, hippie woman that she is, chose to play John Lennon's "Love" when she made her entrance. Here she is with her lovely mom who was also the officiant of the marriage ceremony:

Ron and Nancy were so happy the moment Ryan and Amy were officially announced husband and wife:

I love this moment! As a matter of fact, I wish I could blog this entire wedding because there are sooo many pictures that just ooze happiness, love and excitement!

Ryan's mom Nancy is quite the party animal...

and Ryan's younger brother Andy is a pirate!

All the guys wore their Converse Chuck Taylors:

I love the way these two look at each other...

and make each other laugh!

The Brownstone Cafe at Villa Del Sol is a great place for a wedding!

I love this moment between Amy and her father:

This reception was so much fun since Ryan and Amy's friends and family know how to party!
