Michele and Scott – Oceanside Engagement Photography

Michele will always have a special place in my heart! Not only did she play the role of my mentor and taught me a ton about wedding photography, she also shot my wedding last year! Well it is time for me to return the favor!  She will be marrying her man, Scott this coming June!

So happy for you two!!

Freddie and Carla – Courthouse Wedding Photography

These two lovebirds were married on a cloudy Friday at the San Diego Courthouse.  This was my first Courthouse wedding and I was thrilled to be capturing the day as it happened!  I met Freddie and Carla at the marriage license office, where they waited awhile to sign all the appropriate paperwork.

Then we headed to the ceremony site outside.  This courthouse does indoor or outdoor ceremonies.

We only had a few minutes for portraits, so we quickly crossed the street to shoot!

Then is was on to Roy’s downtown for the intimate reception

Best of luck in Germany you two! It was such a pleasure meeting you and your family!

Vegas Bound!

On Sunday, Mandi and I are heading to what I like to jokingly call “The Photographers Spring Break”. Really, it’s the annual Wedding and Portrait Photographers (WPPI) Convention at the MGM Grand. This will be my third year going and I cannot wait! It is always so much fun! We will return on Thursday.

I’m doing something a little different this year, I am working at two different trade show booths!
I’ll be at the GoBee Booth Monday and Tuesday between 1pm-4pm
and the Shootsac Booth (#1246) on Wednesday 1pm – 4:30pm
Come say Hello!

Also, I will be having an engagement photoshoot on Monday morning (9am).  I have a lot of photographers ask if they can shadow me on a shoot – well here is your chance!  Send me an email if you are interested in coming along! The shoot will last about one hour.

Molly + Mike: Engagement Session in Coronado and on the Ferry!

I love my couples.  Not just love, I abosultely adore my couples and feel like the luckiest girl in the world sometimes to get to meet such awesome people year after year.  It’s just a total bonus that they actually pay me to be around. HA!

See what Mike and Molly brought me, Mandi and Allison on their engagment shoot?  Mike made them for us since their shoot was on Valentine’s Day!  And they were so yummy!

It was totally Molly’s idea to rent a Surrey Bike to ride around in front of Hotel Del. Shout out to Molly’s parents for helping us and schmoozing the rental company for the free bike!

How adorable are these two!?  I cannot wait for their July wedding!

Another reason I love my couples…they go along with some crazy ideas I have!  We jumped on the PACKED (it was Valentine’s Day, remember) Coronado Ferry to ride across and shoot photos.

This may be my favorite photos of the day. Something really natural and organic about it…

See? Crowded, standing room only…or should I say kissing room only?

The love these two have are contagious!  In case I didn’t say it enough before, I adore them 🙂
