Melanie & Dylan - Laguna Beach

Melanie & Dylan said their vows on the Laguna Beach shore just below the lookout cliffs. It was a beautiful day, and the setting was perfect for this young couple. We got to spend most of the day with them, so we had plenty of time to roam around and take pictures. The result... an elegant display of photos that will last them a lifetime!

Summer & Mario - Mission Inn, Riverside CA

One of our favorite places to take pictures is the Mission Inn. The Mission Inn in Riverside CA is a popular place for weddings, hosting over 300 annually! Summer and Mario fell in love with the architecture of the Mission just as we have! Summer and Mario are an exquisite couple that get lost in each other's smiles. The maid of honor said it correctly when she said Mario was Summer's knight in shining armor and that he had swept her off her feet! It was an honor to be a part of their day, and get to spend the evening with them! There are many rooms and chapels in the mission... but Summer and Mario choose the best! Their wedding was in the St. Francis Chapel and their reception was in the Music Room.

Kara Noelle - 1 Year Old

Even though we specialize in wedding and event photography, we love doing family pictures! In particular, I love doing infant/toddler pictures! Turning one is a BIG deal, and toddler portraits are great presents!! Our little one, Kara Corona is going to be one year old in a couple weeks!!! We can hardly believe how fast time has flown by... and how much she has grown! She is a little lady now! We took a couple (haha, yeah right!) pictures for her first birthday, so I can include one in her birthday invitations. She takes such great pictures, even when she is being a grump!! Here are a few of my favorite!














Crafton Hills Fire Academy - Part 2

Even though we mainly do wedding photography, it is nice to take a break and give attention to those who save our lives in time of emergency. Nick is going through the Fire Academy at Crafton HIlls College to becoming a firefighter. The academy is coming to an end and our men and women have been shaped and molded into incredible firefighters! Family was invited to a training exercise earlier this week so I snapped a couple pictures of one of their stations. It was pretty incredible.






Each academy presents the Chief with a plaque that goes into the training hall. In the plaque are pictures of each squad, as well as the entire academy. Here are some of the finest young men and women around!!














Here is the entire Academy!

Vanessa Nelson - Trash the Dress

Vanessa, one of my best friends was married in March. After her wedding and honeymoon, and her and Scott were able to take a break from the choas, Nick and I did a Trash the Dress session with her. Vanessa is our perfect example of how the Trash the Dress sessions are to reflect you. Vanessa and Scott enjoy many evenings around their pool... therefore what better place to snap a few shots than in the pool? Vanessa was actually thinking of the idea the same time we were - so there was no persuasion necessary!

Trash the Dress sessions are to reflect you and your true personality... uninhibited. What an awesome way to create memorable photos!
