From the moment that I met Jacy and Carlos, I knew they were going to be fabulous. I mean… they loved and appreciated photography, they were super sweet, and we just had such a wonderful connection. When I shot their Santa Monica Pier Engagement Session a few months ago I just knew that their wedding was going to be a blast. I knew at the engagement session that Jacy followed my blog… and was eager to get amazing images. Of course, getting amazing images for these two is really not a difficult task – they’re such a beautiful couple, they’re happy, and they’re in love … I mean how much easier could it get for me?!?! LOL! So I had been looking forward to their wedding for some time 
.
I knew their wedding would be beautiful… they got married at the gorgeous Kerckhoff Grand Salon in UCLA and had their reception at the gorgeous Coffee House Patio. I am thrilled to say, that their wedding was actually FABULOUS to the tenth degree!!!!!!!! Seriously. F-A-B-U-L-O-U-S. What made it so fabulous? They did. Jacy and Carlos. I mean the venue was amazing, their decorations were beautiful, their carefully planned details were gorgeous … but what truly made this wedding fabulous was them and their fabulous personalities that just radiate happiness and love. They knew they wanted amazing images and they truly trusted me.
Jacy and Carlos – you guys absolutely rock! you guys are simply fabulous. I am so honored to have been your wedding photographer and I’m honored just to have met you both!!!!! Thank you for sharing your special day with me and allowing me to capture it for you… and most of all, thank you for trusting me as much as you did!!!!!
Ok… So those handfull of people that follow my blog know that I’m alwasy posting tooo many images…. haha! I just have a hard time narrowing it down to my favorite images. So I’m just going to warn you all that this is about to become one LONG post of images… I just couldn’t even decide! I so sowy…
One of my favorite parts of this already fabulous event was their first dance… they started out with this fabulous and romantic dance….
Then they broke out their ‘moves’ and had a TON OF FUN dancing to a medley of funky songs!!! It was so amazing and so much fun. I had to keep reminding myself that I was there to shoot and document the dance… I was just on the ground laughing my butt off!!!! LOL!!! Seriously, I had such a hard time keeping my camera in focus while laughing!!! haha!!! LOVE IT!!!!

When I first met Alcira and Jose I knew two things right away…. I knew they were super sweet and I knew they were super shy. So when Alcira picked the Santa Monica Pier as her engagement session location, I just knew that she would be willing to have some fun! I love the Pier… so many colors, so many lights, so many people!!!
Alcira was a little camera shy at first – but what I absolutely loved about her is that she totally trusted me and WANTED to have fun. She didn’t even mind laying down ON the sand!!! Now that was a first for me!!! most girls are like ’sand… in my hair… no way!’. So she gets super gold points for suggesting that! (yeah… not my idea… how awesome is that?!?!). Jose mentioned to me that Alcira had been looking over my blog and was getting herself ready for what to expect – I LOVE that!!! I love that they both went into the session with completely open minds and open hearts… even if they felt a little shy at first.
Of course…notice how as the sun went down, they suddenly came out of their shell!?!?! LOL!!! Can we say FABULOUS!!!!!! We definitely had some fun with the fabulous lights of the pier… those were definitely my favorite pictures of all! not only because of the fab lights… but because I knew Alcira and Jose had totally gotten into it! haha!
Love you guys!!! I can’t wait for your wedding!!!

I absolutely love exploring new places with my couples … especially when they absolutely ROCK!!! LOL!!! Adela and Will’s engagement session was nothing short of fabulous! We had so much fun getting to know each other, talking about their wedding (which is coming up shortly!!) and simply taking some amazing images of them.
Adela and Will chose to have 2 settings for their engagement session – so we started off at the South coast Botanic Gardens (in Palos Verdes) then we headed down to the beach for a quick beach setting. It was my first time at the South Coast Botanic Gardens… and I totally fell in love with them… so many places to walk around! I love gardens that have areas that look like a natural forest… not so manicured… such a beautiful and romantic setting. Trust me… romance was what this session was all about – Adela and Will are simply romance and passion. Seriously… they had absolutely no trouble getting into the romantic shots… AT ALL!!! LOL!!! Will… I know we all giggled about how passionate you both are with each other… but that’s what it’s all about – I can totally see you guys in your 60’s, still lovin’ on each other!! how cute is that?!?!?!
I can not wait for your fabulous wedding!!! I’m already imagining how fabulous and romantic your pictures will be!!!!

I was so excited when I met Stephanie for the first time… from that very first moment I knew she was all about style, all about glamour, and all about fabulousness – my type of gal!!! LOL!! Her wedding will seriously be AH-MAZING!!! No joke!!! I didn’t get a chance to meet Louis during our first consult, but how could he NOT have style with such a fab girl by his side… lol!
Stephanie was envisioning an old-hollywood glamour feel for her engagement session – but filled with that ultra-hip modern feel. So she chose to go to the Griffith Park Observatory and then to the Union Station in Downtown Los Angeles… just to get 2 different looks for the day. I loved how she decided to go all dressed up for the session… ultra-fab!!!!
Everyone knows I love getting to know my clients… I love getting to know what makes them laugh, what makes them blush, and what makes them love. Every engagement session is totally different for me… some are sweet, others are sleek, others are romantic – it all depends on the fabulous couple and their personalities. Stephanie and Louis are such an ultra modern couple… and ultra sleek. Stephanie thought Louis would be a little shy in front of the camera, but Louis was such a pro – he embodied GQ style! lol!! Both of them rocked it!!!
Thank you guys for sharing those moments with me… I know we’re going to have a blast on your wedding day next year in Camarillo!!! I can’t wait!!!
Seriously everyone … can everyone just take a quick second to recognize this being my 3rd post in 2 days!!! seriously. wow. Haha!
In all honesty – I’ve been so swamped with processing images and designing albums for so many weeks now that I took the day off today to catch up on my blogging and facebook-ing… just to change it up a bit! LOL! Oh… if you haven’t checked out my facebook page - check it out… I usually post things there before I blog them (just cuz it’s easier and faster to post images there – blogging takes me a LONG time to get the darn post ready! lol!). So if you want to see the latest and greatest – that’s the place to go!
Here’s the link to my official Studio Eternity Facebook Page - I won’t ask you to fan me, since apparently that was too much pressure or whatever the facebook people said… lol! – but feel free to ‘Like’ me… (pretty, pretty please… like me… please like me – LOL )

I know… I know… once again I’ve totally slacked off with the blogging thing. I know. But if you guys would have seen what my calendar looked like in June… you wouldn’t blame me. Seriously. My calendar looked like it had chicken pox for the month of June… I can’t even count how many consultations, appointments, engagements, weddings I did all together!!! I really, seriously, deserve a break! lol!! Unfortunately, with wedding season in full swing – that much needed break will just have to wait. haha!
So I need to catch up seriously… I know.
Slowly, but surely, I’ll catch up… for now – let me share a fabulous engagement session I had.
I actually did Ezekiel’s brother’s wedding back a couple of years ago (LOVED Yvette and Kabir… thank you guys for being so awesome!!!) – so when Shannon and Ezekiel called me, I was beyond excited to see their beautiful family again!!! I can NOT wait for their fabulous wedding – THIS WEEKEND!!! (that’s how behind I am… lol!!).
Shannon and Ezekiel chose a fabulous section of Malibu beach – it was actuall where they got engaged!!! yes… let’s all do an ‘awwwww’ together (I know I sure did!!!). We talked, we laughed, we got to know each other, and we captured some beautiful images! … oh.. then we had a fabulous (and extremely delicious dinner!!! – thanks guys… you guys are soooo amazing!!!).
Seriously… check out this fabulous section of Malibu – we had so many backgrounds when we started walking around… I love it!!!

Ok… I really need to figure out another way to say how sweet the couples that I photograph truly are – but until I figure it out… Malia and Eric are such a sweet couple! LOL!
We had a great time walking around the UCR Botanical Gardens in Riverside (if you haven’t noticed yet… I LOVE those gardens! LOL!) – we talked, laughed, and really got to know each other a little more. I loved spending time with them. I can’t wait to shoot their wedding in October!!! I know it’s going to be absolutely amazing!!!

I love meeting the most amazing, loving, and fabulous couples … EVER. What makes them so fabulous? Well… they love to laugh, they love to have fun, they love AND adore each other, and they truly love their families! Erica and Kyle are so sweet and so kind (and so in love!)… and they have super cool (and incredibly adorable) baby boy! Ok… I’m gonna say it – I loved their little guy!!!!! I saw him and just wanted to pick him up and just hug him (forget pictures… right?! LOL!) He reminds me so much of my little boy.. shy, sweet, and ever so innocent! I had to physically try my hardest not to take a million pictures of him! haha!
so… besides an adorable little boy… they also have an amazing family and group of friends! Everyone had soooo much fun… the drinks were flowing, the music was pumping, and everyone was just dancing the night away! I love my job!! LOL!!!
They had their oh So Fab Wedding at the Crestmore Manor in Riverside.

I had been looking forward to last weekend’s engagement session with a slight bit of anxiety and quite a lot of excitement for quite some time. From the moment Amanda contacted me to be her wedding photographer I knew she was one of the warmest and sweetest people in the UNIVERSE. Seriously. Becaue I personally know everyone in the world! LOL! Amanda was excited about her wedding, about her love for Jake, and about my photography – how awesome is she?!?! So why was I a little nervous?… I had never met her in person before! … As it turned out, I had nothing to worry about – Amanda and Jake are the type of people that just make you feel welcome… I am sooo honored to be a part of their lives!!!!
There are a few things that anyone can tell you when you see them together – they’re happy, they’re fun, they’re totally and completely in LOVE, and yes… Jake is just a tad taller than Amanda . They are so incredibly cute together!
We shared this time together walking around the beautiful grounds of the Hartley’s Botanica in Somis then we took a short little drive to where their actual wedding will be in July.

From the moment that I met these two, we all just clicked – Jacy is one of the sweetest girls you could ever meet (her smile makes you smile… seriously). They’re both very laid back, very easy going, and extremely happy to be in love with each other… and they enjoyed taking pictures – this is jus my type of couple!!!
We had such a good time at the pier. Jacy and Carlos – you guys rock! I serioulsy can’t wait to have a blast at your wedding!!!!

Yippeee… I’m about to make my first woop-woop Oh So Fab post… yay!!!! (doing a happy dance for myself now!! hey… If I don’t cheer myself on, who will?!?! )
For the past few months I have been revamping my entire studio presentation … basically to make everything ‘puuuurrrrty’ for my clients J. My presentation for the past 5 years has been elegant black boxes, black tissue, and black CD sleeves… which I still think is a very elegant look – but a little too basic for my taste I think (and definitely NOT a reflection of my personality AT ALL!!! LOL!!!)
I really want my clients to know how important they are to me, and I always believe that cute little special touches are really what it’s always about. I mean… don’t you always love receiving a little gift in a cute little box!?! Opening up the box is half the experience… right?!?!
So now that I revamped my site with some new, more elegant and rich color combos, (the browns, mochas, lattes, and pinks) – I thought I would try to find some nice CD sleeves. I needed something creative and artsy… so I knew Etsy was the place to go (gotta LOVE LOVE LOVE etsy!!!).
I was so excited to have found Meg from Megasmiles!!! She rocks!!!!
Check out my super elegant and chocolaty-rich CD sleeves that she made for me!!! I almost did a cartwheel when I opened up her package this week!!! (of course, then I remembered I’m totally uncoordinated and would definitely break something… my back at the very least… if I actually did a cartwheel!! LOL!!! So I just jumped up and down instead!! Haha!)
Love ya’ Megasmiles!!!
New CD Sleeves for my awesome clients!!!
