Diane & Frank’s Engagement Session:  They are getting married next week at the Hyatt in HB and we are so excited to shoot there again.  It’s also great to work with new people as well.  I am so excited to work with the super sweet/awesome Eva from Red Velvet Occasions.  They had a fun session at Laguna Beach..check it out:

Veronica & Kit’s Wedding:  This one is a special one for us.  We shot her sister Victoria’s wedding late last year and it was nice to see everyone again.  They have such a loving family and it was nice to be apart of it all :)  This wedding was a DIY for the most part.  One of her bridesmaid made her wedding gown and all the dresses..check it out:

Married: Marisela & Jorge

mbjw_274

They grew up in the same neighborhood and went to the same school, but didn’t date til after they went off to college.  I think it’s so cute how they live so close to each other. It was just meant to be :).  Jan and I had a great time hanging out with them a few saturdays ago.  They got married at the St. Helen’s Church in South Gate and had the reception in Lynwood.  I’ve never been to that area before so Jan and I got there a bit early to check out the neighborhood.  Marisela was a bit worried about where to shoot the portraits, but gave us total control.  We drove around and saw some cool spot so we knew what we wanted to do.  I love it when clients trust us!!  We were able to get some cool shots around Lynwood and can’t wait to show you.  Check out our wedding blog for the goods:

Alex and Brad were the first couple for this year. They got married early March. We started off at a small church in Laguna and the reception was at the oh so cool Soka University. This school was awesome! What a find!!! We got to work with Amanda from In the Now Weddings again and she was great. Jan and I meet Alex and Brad a year before and couldn’t wait for their wedding. They are so sweet and cute!! They really know how to work it for the camera too :) Check out Jan’s blog for the goods:

I usually do most of the client consultations, but when I had Nathan I couldn’t do much for a while so Jan would do all the consultations. I didn’t meet Mary and Will until the wedding day. I heard so many nice things from Jan that I couldn’t wait. He was right.. they are so down to earth and really nice. We had a beautiful day at the Langham in Pasadena. My good friend Carolyn from The Special Day was the coordinator and did a wonderful job as usual :) Here’s the blog:

Lizzy and Mark are so fun and crazy. They got married at the Ebell in Long Beach! I didn’t meet them either until the wedding day and it was a blast! We had lots of time for some cool portraits so we drove down to the Queen Mary and worked it. They are so outgoing and fun loving. Check it out:
