Stephanie is a wonderful friend of mine from college and she and her wonderful husband Adam wanted to do a holiday session for Christmas cards. They are expecting a little one and we wanted to showcase that through a few of the photos :) We are so excited to be doing a full maternity session with them in the spring!

Diane and Alex went for an elegant backyard theme for their invitations, which I designed from scratch. I love how do they turned out! We are so excited to see them this weekend for their engagement photos and to shoot their wedding in May! Click any image to launch a larger viewing window. Enjoy!

We wanted to wait until Diana and Gian had a chance to show their closest family and friends the big news: they are expecting! As part of our anniversary shoot a month ago, we took some extra pictures to showcase how excited they are about their pregnancy. I'll be seeing them again later on to do a formal maternity session. So excited for these guys! Click any image to launch a larger viewing window. Enjoy!

Dorrie and Chris are the cutest! They met three years ago through mutual friends and became engaged only a few months ago. While they were traveling in Europe, Dorrie wanted to visit the Lock Bridge in Paris but they weren't able to fit it into their itinerary. However, while in Malta on a beautiful bridge overlooking the city and the setting sun, Chris presented Dorrie with an engraved lock and asked Dorrie to be his wife. He presented Dorrie with her great-grandmother's stunning ring, and of course she said yes! We met these two at Hillcrest Park in Fullerton and after taking a little while to adjust to being in front of the camera, we had a wonderful time taking photos with them in the setting sun. In addition we brought along a surprise pack of polaroids, which we had a lot of fun with.  We are so excited to be working with them on their invitation suite and to photograph their wedding in October of 2014!
