Engagement Session

Michelle and Anthony: Engagement Photos, Pasadena, CA

We had the awesome opportunity to spend the afternoon with Michelle and Anthony. We met them at the amazing Arroyo Seco park in Pasadena for some hangout and photo taking time. What we didn’t realize before getting there was this park is home to the “roving archers”…which is exactly what it sounds like. There were a bunch of people roaming around with bows and arrows and we are more than a little afraid for our own skin. Fortunately the only things we came out with were some good images and some new friends. Watch your back if you ever go to this park.

Brian and Amanda: Oxnard Wedding Photographer, Barn, Private Estate

Brian and Amanda were meant for each other. That much is clear. Another thing that’s clear is that they know how to throw a good party. I don’t think we’ve ever been on a crazier dance floor. Their wedding was picture perfect, down to the very last detail. There were lots of tears, lots of laughter, and a whole lotta people gettin’ down. Also, as if they don’t already have the blessing of many, they got a few rain drops on their wedding day giving them all the luck that could be mustered. Enjoy the photos!

Randy and Allie: Simi Valley Wedding Photographer, Tuscan Villa, California

No one was phased by the heat of the Simi Valley sunshine on this lovely day. Randy and Allie are some of the coolest/nicest/sincere people we’ve ever gotten lucky enough to work with. There was such a tangible joy shared by the whole wedding party, family, and guests. One of our favorite moments was when Randy’s dad/best man rapped his toast to the tune of “Fresh Prince of Bel Air.” That pretty much will go down as one of the best toasts in wedding history. To see just how cool this couple really is, you should really take a look at their engagement session when Randy flew us to Catalina. We feel so happy that we could share in a little part of Randy and Allie’s lives and we wish them all the best in the world!

Megan and Casey: Camarillo Wedding Photographer, Private Estate, Somis, California

Megan and Casey are such a great match. It’s hard to find words to describe the joy of their wedding day. Emily and I felt so honored to be there to memorialize the memories forever. I’ve known Megan since I was born and we kind of grew up together. She is such a joyful and loving person and such a blast to be around. It’s pretty crazy that we have baby photos together and now I’ve photographed her wedding. I only met Casey a few years ago but he is such an awesome guy and is just the man for Megan. I couldn’t be happier for them. Their wedding was kind of a crazy experience for me as there were all these guests there who hadn’t seen me since I was like 7 years old and still call me “Petey”. Although I’m much older and my beard is much longer, it was great to catch up and be reminded of the good ol’ days. Megan and Casey, you guys are awesome and I’m so excited that you two get to enjoy the beauty and joys of marriage together!

Grace and Brandon: Thousand Oaks Wedding Photographer, Private Estate, Santa Rosa Valley

Grace and Brandon were wed in holy matrimony in the presence of their friends and family. We were there to make sure that no one forgot what happened that day, among other things. We’ve known Grace for many a year and are so happy to see her find a wonderful partner for life. The reception was held in the backyard of the house Grace grew up in, which made the entire event feel very intimate and inviting. One of the best things about this wedding was the fact that Grace and Brandon spent pretty much all night dancing their faces off. There’s nothing better than when a Bride and Groom really know how to celebrate. Now go ahead and enjoy some photos of some beautiful people.
