Vanessa and Terry are getting married in just over a month at The Bel-Air Bay Club. Terry just moved into a great place downtown so we decided to head out into the streets for a little urban assault. These two are such a great couple and have so much fun together. We shot for hours and just walked around town talking and shooting. Terry even managed to snap a few shots of me…nice work! :-)

We have known Jeannie for many years now is she is a close friend of one of our closest friend’s families. We have hung out at many celebrations together. She is an amazing woman with an amazing passion for life and it was great to be able to produce these images of her and her granddaughters…

I just finished prepping about 30 blog posts! I am way behind, it’s been a crazy holiday season! I’m gonna kick it off with Sarah and Greg’s wedding in Santa Barbara. I’m going to keep my usual wordiness to a minimum so I can post everything over the next week. (translation: Lots o’ pics – very few words)

Sarah and Greg had a beautiful wedding at the Fess Parker in Santa Barbara. What made this extra special for us was all the people involved who we have known for many years. Greg’s mom is our dental hygienist and his dad owns a catering company in Westlake called PURE which we buy lots of food from. It’s all natural and you can either pick up or have home delivery. Greg is also responsible for our beautiful backyard which we stare at all day long as we built an addition onto the house that overlooks the yard.

This is only really funny to us because she is our dental hygienist…

Just as they were saying their “I Do’s” a land shark full of pirate wenches rolled by screaming their heads off.

I met Megan and Jason in downtown Pasadena for a little urban funk. I don’t even know what that means but it’s late and that’s all I got :-) Anyway, we had a great session, Megan and Jason are hilarious and their constant laughter lights up the lens. Megan + Jason both work for Classic Party Rentals so you know their wedding will be dialed! Their ultra chic wedding will be at Vibiana this March…

These three girls stepped out of the car and I knew I was in for an amazing shoot! On top of the perfect outfits, these girls were gorgeous and well behaved to boot. So cute in fact that I e-mailed Kennedy’s agent at Ford Models and sent her a few pics. She met with them 2 days later and signed all 3 on the spot!!!

It seems like everyone who works at Monique Lhuillier Beverly Hills is getting married this year. Megan and Joel get hitched in Chicago this summer so we headed out to Pasadena to get something a little more urban. Megan showed up in Monique, of course, but also had a sweet pair of Louboutin’s to match.
