carla and todd

last week dave and i met up with the amazingly fun carla and todd to shoot their engagement photos. we had a blast! carla and todd had me smiling the whole shoot, between their hilarious jokes and sweet romantic moments when they forgot the camera and focused solely on each other, it was hard not to :]

here's some of my shots from the day:

jenn and joe's wedding august 18th

last saturday me, dave, and rowena from http://rowenacurtis.com/ got to shoot joe and jenn's wedding at a little church in encinitas. it was an awesome day, it was warm, the sun was shining and everyone had a smile on their face :] here's a few of my shots from the day.

ro had a great idea for the shoe shot, and put them on the piano in the dressing room. she has a great knack for shooting details
jenn and her dad before the ceremony. he was the sweetest man you could ever meet, he had me torn between laughing and crying during his speech at the reception.

jenn and joe were all smiles after the ceremony.

i'm still trying to think of what magazine jenn walked out of, she was an awsome model :]
joe on top of some old air condtioners on the side of the church. he can make any setting look good.

mmmm.... caaaake..

jenn and joe you guys are awesome, your wedding was too fun! everyone was insanely nice and funny, i was in stiches during the toasts at your reception. i can't wait to see you guys again at your trash the dress session.

jenn and joe

allow me to introduce you all to the wonderful jenn and joe :] dave and i had the pleasure of taking their engagement shots a couple days back.


to get this shot i had to lay down in dirt and leaves and gravel which all, somehow, made it's way into my pants when i stood up. good times :]

whispering sweet nothings on the stairs...


DRIVE SLOWLY COUPLES AT PLAY

welcome back noah!

noah, rain's BFF, finally got back from his trip to canada the other day! i know my sister and i are really glad to have him back, it's been a pretty boring week without him around :]


rain and noah at the flower fields on mother's day. we were constantly on the lookout for the security guard who would have a heart attack if you even attempted to smell the flowers.
rain and noah briskly frolicking through the flowers away from security. those meddling kids.

it seems rain forgot to take her cootie shots. ;]

noah!

trash the dress

hey all! i finally got around to creating my own blog and what better way to start than by showing the utter destruction of wedding dresses. tons of extremely talented photographers and beautiful couples came downtown yesterday for a great time of wading through fountains, playing in a tractor, and having a water gun fight to the death. all in all everything needed for a great photoshoot. :]

a big thank you to everyone who participated and Alyssa for organizing this awesome event!
