I love traveling, meeting people, having fun, and of course taking pictures. I am moved by the raw power of emotions that can be captured through a lens and the equal amount of emotion that it is able to stir in others.
What can I say about this couple that isn’t already described in the pictures? Sachee and Abhishek are just hands down great people that are not only fun to hang around but also a joy to photograph. We had a little thirty minute break during their engagement party so we decided to take a few photos.
In the end I had so much fun shooting their party that I even stayed afterwards for a couple hours! Here are a few frames that I would love to share.
Vivian and Calvin are two special people who we can literally shoot forever and have tons of fun doing it. We took them to one of our favorite spots in Costa Mesa and ended our night at Southcoast Plaza, somewhere I always wanted to shoot at. Along the journey we avoided mall cops, snaked through prickly bushes, and even got kicked out of our first location. Our efforts created some of my favorite images thus far.
It’s been awhile since San Diego residents Elaine and Paulo have been up to Orange County so we gave them a tour around the city while taking some pictures on the side. Our first stop was Old Towne Orange where we found plenty of vintage shops. Katrina actually got a little carried away and we almost came home with four pieces of matching luggage! We ended the day at Milk and Honey where they serve the best frozen yogurt and shaved ice combo in town. Elaine and Paulo are one of those couples that are just so much fun to shoot. They were in their own little world for every shot and we had the best time capturing that.
Ann Chi and Chris were married on the hills of Hollywood in the “haunted” Houdini Mansion, or so they say. When Katrina and I arrived we couldn’t help but notice how the beautiful waterfalls, architecture, and vegetation blended so well together. Nothing was scary about it at all. In fact the venue had an almost magical feel to it.
When it started pouring after the ceremony the couple kept their cool. The party moved inside the mansion until the rain subsided an hour later. The water didn’t put a damper on anyone’s day and the wedding went all the way to the after party. Ann Chi and Chris are a great couple and I could tell they really care and loved their guests. Thanks for sharing your day with us.
