welcome I am a LA based photographer and have been blessed to travel the globe with my camera.  Photography is both my business and my passion!  I'm a jeans and flip flop kind of lady who loves my dog, exploring, mangos and taking pictures.  I think ice cream makes the world go round and family makes me smile.  I have made this blog to share my photos with you and to get your feedback!  I want to hear from you so please leave comments!
Natalie is a great friend from high school.  She and Ryan are getting married in November.  I was pleased to take their engagement photos, we really killed it.

Julia is my cousin, well really my sister.  I call her Broccoli.  She met and married an awesome guy named Brad.  Tammy Horton rocked the wedding last weekend.  I took these engagement shots of them a few weeks back.  Broccoli and Brad make me smile.

Top 10 reasons why this wedding was brilliant: 1.  Jill and I have been friends since freshman year of high school.  2.  Whit fell in love with Jill her freshman year of college.  3.  Marvimon is a really killer location.  3.  Tammy Horton came along to help me shoot.  4.  Jill and Whit had a GREEN wedding.  5.  Jill planned the entire event and did all of the flowers, details and decor herself, note the details. 6.  She collected bottles and vases from thrift stores, made the napkins and napkin rings and had Sprinkles cupcakes for dessert.  7.  Dana Cormie coordinated the day of and she rocked it.  8. The guests gifts were reusable bags with Jill and Whit's logo.  9.  We started at the Standard Downtown.  AND.  10. Successfully got on the roof of the Standard to take some incredible photos.

The rain didn't put a damper on Melinda and Sams wedding.  They had the best attitude evvvva and were full of smiles and laughter!  The beautiful La Venta Inn is the perfect backdrop for a luncheon reception.  I LOVED the flowers...everything was different and it was so unique and awesome!

Melinda and Sam were champions and decided to see each other before the ceremony!  I love it when couples choose to do a first look, it gives us plenty of time and it gives the couple the chance to enjoy the entire wedding!

Melinda and Sam look so happy! Maybe a little rain on your wedding day isn't so bad. Great pics!
