I chased this little guy around so much, and he fell so many times I am surprised he didnt leave with a big knot on his head. But as you can see his jumping juice is at full strength and definitely comes through in these images and every one ended the shoot safe and sound. Good luck keeping up with him hes born to run. Love you guys!

Our shoot started in the open fields in Redlands, then we rushed off to shoot at some of the vineyards in Temecula. We almost made it but on the way the sun was setting so fast, and I was afraid of loosing the light, so we decided to pull over in Perris and take advantage of some interesting locations I found there. You know its amazing how sometimes when your not even looking magical places materialize this was really the perfect backdrop for their portraits.
Afterward we went to diner and I learned a bit more about them. Jeremy is a forensic accountant (highly technical sounding profession and some what intimidating - I just keep thinking IRS). And Jill is a nurse. these guys just feel right, real chemistry and you could feel it. Our diner was great, Its so nice to mix my work with good times.
Oh, and Jeremy I gotta apologize for the Fringe spoiler - just forget what I said and enjoy the show. I look forward to your wedding in October.
Look out for the first part of our shoot coming soon!

I really enjoy shooting this line it makes me think about how great and unique the little girl experience can be. The girls had a great time with the cupcakes, candy and giggles we brought as props on this shoot, and of course loved the cloths.

And starting next week I’ll start to show the fall line which features LA artist JAW | (portfolio)

So, today I came up with a few outfits and ideas for you. Here are some things to keep in mind as you make you wardrobe decisions.

  • You don’t all have to match, when I say match I mean everyone does not have to be in a white shirt and jeans. Everyone can be an individual while complementing the rest of the colors and styles in the family.
  • Stay away from busy prints and big logos, you wouldn’t want one person to standout too much from the others.
  • Choose 3 - 4 colors, then create outfits that mix and match those colors
  • Play with a bright accent color that you can sprinkle around everyone’s outfits.
  • Think about who you are as a family, when your all doing the things you love to do together and let that inspire you. Most of all remember to have fun with it.

Its so important to take time with these super important pictures the couple needs time to relax and enjoy each other without being rushed or worried about prying eyes.

We left the Hotel for Castaways in the San Bernardino Mountains and the view there was breathtaking. The bride looked stunning as her father walked her down the aisle. lots of his family flew in from Thailand and India there was a fusion of many cultures.

The thing that i recall mist about the shoot way the way that Rajeev looked at her through out the day, his quiet tender nature and the love I could see in his eyes. His goal was to be sure his brides wishes came true, it was clear he did as they danced together for the first time as husband and wife.

Rajeev and Kay, I wish you true love and happiness.

I have to say that their property was so inspiring, it offered so many incredible photo-ops. I mean look at those old cars, the second I saw them I had an image in mind, tell me if you can pick my favorite. I just loved, loved, loved this shoot! Thank You Kirk family for letting me capture these moments with you.

NOTE: Those of you that have shoot coming up with me take a moment and look around your home and property. Look at the things that you share with your family. Something that ties you to the place you live and love and the people you share that space with. I want you guys to think outside of the box here - bring me into spaces and scenes in your life that connect you. I cant wait until our shoot!

They wanted a beach shoot and they were going to get one, so we headed out to the Santa Monica Pier, we shot under the pier to make the best of things. And just like it was scripted, right before we were ready to leave the sun came out and provided the set for even more amazing images.

I am so grateful that (Hops) took time out of his busy touring schedule to squeeze in this fun filled shoot. They were so much fun, and so easy going that creating these spirited and intimate images was a breeze. I really wished I could have shot them all day!

Hey Guys enjoy the wedding planning. I wish I could be there in November.
