It was a cold and rainy day… grey and cloudy, but filled with smiles and happiness. We all hoped that the sun would come out, even if just for a little bit – we didn’t get our wish, but as it turns out cloudy rainy days are Cindy and Michael’s favorite type of day! They embraced the day and enjoyed every moment of their wedding day.
I was personally freezing my behind off, but Cindy and Michael didn’t mind keeping each other warm with hugs and kisses during the few moments that we had to venture off into the golf course before the rain picked up again. Thank you guys for sharing your love, your smiles, and your moments with me!
Cindy and Michael celebrated their wedding ceremony at the Northpoint Evangelical Church in Corona and their fabulous reception took place at the Eagle Glen Golf Course.

The week of Bethany and Brian’s engagement session was just grey and cold – you could tell the skies were just anxious to let it pour… I hoped that for her session it actually stayed the same and that the rain would hold off a while longer. Mother Nature didn’t see things our way… apparently the rain doesn’t care if only have that one day to do a session – lol! As it turns out, we had to do their session in a couple of ‘stages’. We would take a few shots, and then run inside to wait a little longer for the rain to settle a bit. At one point we made great use of the weather and grabbed some umbrellas – those turned out to be my favorite images from the session!
I know I always say this – but I love getting to know my clients – I always feel blessed to be able to work with such amazing couples!!!! Bethany and Brian are a sweet and laid back couple… I can’t wait to shoot your wedding in a few weeks!!!

Malia and Erick have a love that feels like the kind of love that has been around for a lifetime… a love that is gentle and wise. Erick has this quiet yet incredibly strong love for Malia – I could see it from the moment I met them. They’re both so sweet and so at ease with each other… it’s just adorable. Malia was so relaxed on her wedding day… she was determined to have a fun and stress free wedding – one that she could enjoy and remember forever.
They celebrated their love surrounded by their beautiful family at Angeles National Golf Club.

Prisillia and Harrold have such a fun and easy-going personality… you can tell that their love is filled with fun, giggles, and laughter. Some might remember their fabulous (and FUN) engagement session at Disneyland (where we got kicked out, but kept going while trying to not get caught! Lol!). They’re definitely kids at heart… and I love that about them!
They had a fabulous first look… then Harrold went back outside to knock on Prisillia’s door, so that her parent’s could answer the door while Harrold went with his family to ask for Prisillia’s hand in marriage!! It was sooo cute. The entire family gathered to give Prisillia ‘away’ and to give their blessings for this union. I love that they honored that beautiful tradition that is part of the Indonesian culture!
Their wedding ceremony (which took place at the First Presbyterian Church in Redlands) was equally amazing… at one point in the ceremony Harrold and Prisillia took the mike and sang a song to their parents! It was sooooo beautiful. There wasn’t a dry eye in the entire place… everyone was so touched that tears just flowed. I love what I do – I love being a part of moments that are so inspiring and just amazing!

Yes…I know… it’s dusty and abandoned in here… I know. It’s been around 6 months since I’ve even pretended to remember that I needed to update y blog 
. I know… bad, bad, bad! hahaha! I’ve been soooooo busy that I just can’t keep up. Seriously… those of you fabulous photographers that do all of your own post-processing, website maintenance, blogging, facebook-ing, and twittering – all while doing a ton of weddings – how the heck do you all do it!?! lol!! I can’t even begin to figure it out! haha! I need an assistant … lol! (and a cook, a full time nany, and a maid. I can hope, can’t I?!?!). But, since that’s out of the question – all I can do is try to keep up as best I can. This weekend I decided to force myself to post a few of the many weddings that are backed up…. from back in October of last year! (yes… let’s all ghasp and giggle nervously together! lol!).
So these last 6 months I’ve shot tons of weddings (both locally and destination weddings)… tons of engagements (also locally and for destination)… my beautiful sister got married (and I was her photographer, of course)… my son turned 4 and is talking a ton (not sure if that’s a good thing or not, since now I don’t know what ‘peace and quiet’ feels like anymore!)… and one of my images was featured in a post in the fabulous wedding blog Chez-Wedd – http://chezwedd.com/trash-the-dress-session/ (I love all the wedding ideas and weddings that they feature!! – check them out!!!)
So … let’s begin my challenge of trying to get caught up… in the mean time – an image from my sister’s fabulous wedding…

From the moment that I met Harrold & Prisillia they expressed their love for Disneyland and everything magical about it!! When they told me that they would like to do their engagement session there, I just knew we were going to have a blast!!!!!!!! Even though I grew up in California, I actually haven’t been to Disneyland for a LONG time – I think I was like 15 years old the last time I was there – so it’s definitely been a while (although I would like to think I’m still 25 at heart! LOL!!!). We made a trip out of it – so my son, my mom, and my sisters went with me … so after I finished working I could go ‘play’ a little bit!!! 
. It was so much fun (even if my son decided that he didn’t really like the big characters walking around – they kind of freaked him out – LOL!!!!).
Anyways… back to the engagement session … It rocked!!! hahaha! Harrold and Prisillia are such kids at heart!!!! I loved their sweet innoncence… their laughs… and their excitement!!! Even after a security guard almost kicked us out – they still had such a positive and fun attitude!!! hahaha! (oh.. and this security guard even claimed that she had seen me taking pictures there often before and that’s why she wanted to kick us out!!! haha!!! she wouldn’t believe me that I hadn’t been to Disneyland since I was in high school!!! hahaha!)
Thank you guys for taking me to Disneyland!!!!

When Sara contacted me about doing her engagement session, she kind of already had in mind that she wanted to look and feel fabulous… and from the moment I saw her and Luis – I knew they were an absolutely FABULOUS couple!!!!! When I do engagement sessions I really like to get to know the couple, just because I know that most of the time it’s the very first time that they’ve had a professional photographer follow them arround while they act all love-y… LOL!!! We walk, we talk, I act goofy and silly – and usually everyone ends up having a blast – and I end up getting to know their love fairly well (I love my ‘job’!!!!!… what other ‘job’ lets you document ‘love glances’ … lol!!!!). I absolutely LOVE that Luis would just glance at Sara and you could see his eyes would just glaze over with love.. I know that sounds all silly – and Luis (if he’s reading this) is probably saying I’m silly and exaggerating it… but the way that he looks at Sara is just heart-melting!!!!!!
Thank you Sara and Luis for allowing me to capture that love and your fabulous style!!!

I first met Alcira and Jose several months ago, when their fabulous wedding planner (and a friend of mine) Jenny from At your Door Events - asked me to meet with them. My first impression of them was how sweet and quiet they both were. I realized quickly that Jose adores Alcira, and he would go along with whatever she asked for… which I knew would translate into fabulous romantic images. But I also realized quickly that Alcira LOVED fabulous photography… which of course would translate into FABULOUSLY ROMANTIC images! lol! If you follow my blog, you might remember their fabulous Santa Monica Engagement session - where they totallyl rocked it!!!
When I drove up to the Los Angeles Arboretum on a Thursday afternoon, I thought it would be a small and very casual afair (with less than 30 guests!!!) – and I loved that!!! I mean, what other kind of wedding could it be on a Thursday afternoon?!?! Well… it could be an absolutely FABULOUS and STUNNING afair… that’s what it could be!!!!! and that’s exactly what it was!! Jenny serioulsy blew this wedding out of the water when it came to the design!!!!!
The colors, the flowers, the textures…. it was all absolutely delicious eye-candy!!!! EVERYWHERE!!! And… of course, the L.A. Arboretum could not have been the most perfect location for this magical day!
As I walked up to the Arboretum that day… I saw Alcira and her fabulous-ness absolutely blew me away… the birdcage veil, her fabulous shoes, her stunning makeup… and her fabulous dress!!! And Jose… looking all dashing!!! AND (yes… there’s a big ‘AND’) – Alcira and Jose put so much emphasis on fabulous photography, that they saw each other before the ceremony so that we could walk around by ourselves AND we had even more time after the ceremony!!!! oh… oh… oh… and they absolutely trusted me!!! Can I just say photographer’s heaven!!! LOL!!!
We had so much fun… and I took sooooo many fabulous images… so you know this is about to become an absolutely LONG post of eye-candy… so just get yourself some yummy chocolate, sit back, and enjoy

A few weeks ago I had the honor of documenting such a sweet wedding!! I still remember the first time I met Lisa and Joshua… and their 3 gorgeous children! I remember the kids were so sweet and so well-behaved!!! I always remember kids that listen to their parents… it must be the mommy in me! lol! They had a super fun and super sweet engagement session a few months ago… so I knew I would love sharing a beautiful wedding day with this fabulous family!!!
Their wedding day was filled with so much love, so much joy, and even a couple of tears here and there. The Lindley-Scott House was such a pretty setting for their beautiful day! I personally thought that Lisa was just glowing with happiness – it was so amazing to witness the love that Lisa and Joshua have for each other!!! You guys are so amazing… thank you for allowing me to share this special day in your lives!
