Red Chair | Aileen & Gregory
When I first met Aileen and Greg, we clicked instantly! Their personalities and positive energy filled my studio during our meeting. Aileen has a tendency of singing whenever she gets excited. Apparently, she was excited throughout our meeting, as well as, our engagement photo shoot in Downtown Los Angeles. Who needed a radio when my bride sang then entire time! Aileen and Greg really wanted photographs that synced with the “Roaring 20′s” theme. We started out day at Disney Concert Hall, then wrapped everything up at Los Angeles Union Station. Check out their following engagement photos and let me know if they pulled it off!
Disney Concert Hall
111 South Grand Avenue
Los Angeles, CA 90012-3034
(323) 850-2000
The beautifully crafted red chair in the following photographs was Greg’s anniversary gift to Aileen. How cute is that?!
Normally, photos are taken on the polished side of Disney Concert Hall. We wanted to spice things up, so we also used the backside of the walls where all the foundation poles and metal nets were shown. I thought this added more character in this photo, especially for their theme!
Los Angeles Union Station
800 N. Alameda Street
Los Angeles, CA
Aileen thought it was appropriate to change into a more elegant and simpler outfit to match LA Union Station. =)
…I am always a sucker for bird cage veils.
This was my favorite engagement photo of the day! The sun barely crept through the large glass windows and provided a more dramatic picture for us!
…aww, and one final kiss to conclude our engagement session.
I hope everyone enjoyed these photos as much as I did. Thank you again Greg for the chair and Aileen for the beautiful songs! I will have their wedding photos from Huntington Hyatt posted up shortly.
Cheers,

I really like the images with the metal wall (I assume it’s metal?) in the background, the contrast between the hard coldness of the walls and the softness of the models and chair.

I totally dig them in that old school location (inside) — it just works so well with their outfits and all the rest. Great work, great light, great processing = great images. Keep up the great work.

Beautiful series of images. You were definitely spot on about the back of the concert hall. The raw structural elements provided a great background. Nice work!
