Ezra, Isabel & Jonah are jokesters, goofballs & 3 peas in a pod. I love them. We had so much fun running around the Santa Monica pier being silly. Mom’s Jenn & Val (whom I adore) even made it into a few shots. I love shooting kids at the pier. That light! That vibe! You can’t beat it.

Back again at the stunning Bel Air Bay Club (do I need to say again how much we love this venue???). Marisa & Jonathan were actually married back East a few months ago, but with lots of family in LA, they chose to have another wonderful reception here. Marisa channeled a gorgeous ’20’s starlet look, and there was no wiping the enormous smile off Jonathan’s face. How could you make the night better? A stellar group a vendors and a crowd that likes to party, that’s how. Ravi Knypstra’s band was fantastic, Señor Amor rocked the house, the staff at the Bel Air Bay Club were perfect as always, Hector of Green Leaf created fantastic flower arrangements as always, and, of course, photography by us! Congrats guys! We had a blast with you!

Here’s another wedding a shot this year with Laurie Bailey. Kelly & Marty were so in love, it was exhilarating watching them. The Beach Club was the perfect setting and no one thought twice about the overcast and cool weather, it all worked perfectly. I loved how they decorated the tables, complete with Kelly’s mothers blue & white porcelain pieces that made the pink, orange & yellow flowers pop. Beautiful day!!

Nate & I only book a certain number of weddings a year, so we are able to give all of our clients lots of equal attention. This means we have some free weekends, and what do I like to do on these free days? Shoot with my photographer friends! This gives me the chance to keep in shooting shape all year long without all the post production work! I usually have the privilege of working with Laurie Bailey a few times a year, and we always have a great time, always work with great people and always shoot some awesome images together. This wedding at the beautiful Bel Air Bay Club (one of my favorite venues) was no exception, however it had one fun twist… Gordon Ramsay and his new show MasterChef were filming as well! The challenge for the contestants were to cater a wedding, so we got to work alongside a film crew (who were quite unobtrusive, thankfully) and get to watch Mr. Ramsay himself in action (he’s a pussy cat, all the grumpiness is for show). An exciting wedding for sure! BTW - the gorgeous flowers were created by Hector Martinez of Green Leaf Floral Design Here’s what I saw…

We recently visited Toronto (my home town) and set up a couple of portrait days. We managed to be there for some of the most perfect summer days (before the heat wave hit, that is) and spent some great time with everyone. Here’s a small sampling of families, you can always see more on our Facebook page - don’t forget to become our fan!

We have been on a portrait kick lately! It’s so much fun shooting all these lil’ munchkins. Here’s a look at a bunch we did at the Santa Monica beach…

I can’t wait to photograph Shina & Soumitra’s wedding this August! We had the best time together shooting this engagement session around Santa Monica, starting with a little more formal look at The Huntley, and getting casual (and soaking wet, sorry Soumitra!!) on the beach.

Mia is one of my oldest and dearest friends (we used to walk to school together!). When she asked if I would photograph her wedding, I was touched. When she told me it was going to be in Hawaii I screamed! Mia & Sylvain’s amazing wedding consisted of exactly 8 people. While big ballroom weddings are fun, there’s nothing like an intimate, casual wedding with just a few of your closest friends. The day was absolutely perfect, starting with the boys hanging by the pool and the girls chilling in Mia’s room getting hair & make up done. The ceremony was on a very private and secluded beach, which we never even found out the name of. Pastor Harold Kilborn, who performed a fantastic ceremony, suggested this spot and he was right to keep it secret. It wouldn’t have accommodated much more than 15 people and was pretty much heaven on earth, I mean check out that view!!! Back at the Ko’a Kea resort for cocktails and dinner at their amazing restaurant Red Salt was divine. The next morning we were all looking at each other saying “It really couldn’t have been a more perfect day!”. Congratulations Mia & Sylvain! I love you both and am so happy for you. XOXO
