Happy Chinese New Year everyone!

I hope those who celebrate this festive day are collecting all those red envelopes from your relatives! On another festive moment, our next lovely couple had a blast at Griffith Observatory and Santa Monica Pier for their engagement photos. For a side tip, those who want to take engagement or wedding photos here at Griffith Observatory, try going on Monday when the venue is closed but still allows people to walk around its premises. After we explored and took plenty of engagement photos here, we fought our way through traffic all the way to Santa Monica Pier to wrap everything up. Despite all the hectic traffic, these two love birds never stopped smiling, laughing, and falling in love. Enjoy.

Good evening, Happy Lunar New Years eve, and Ash Wednesday,

It has been a while since my last wedding and engagement photography blog post, but I will make this my “Lunar” New Year resolution to dedicate some time to update everyone on my travels on this blog and my regular website. Hopefully, I can keep this resolution; at least until I finish posted all my past weddings and engagement photo shoots! To start everything off, we arrive back in beautiful Pasadena and Downtown Los Angeles for Karin and Leonard’s engagement photography shoot. THese two love birds are not only fashionably dress, have a quirky sense of humor, but has a certain spice to make their engagement pictures come alive! We warmed up in the alleys of Old Town Pasadena and perused through the streets shooting at every corner. Once we wrapped up in Old Town Pasadena, we all caravan to Downtown Los Angeles to wrap up their engagement photos on top of Angels Knoll. During the winter season, the trees at Angels Knoll shed their leaves and the ground turns pure white. That was definitely a nice addition to match the season of their engagement pictures. Enjoy.

LA Night Life | Tammy & Patrick

July 16, 2013

It was a cool October during this next engagement photography session in Los Angeles with my next lovely couple, Tammy and Patrick. On a side note, I think October has to be one of my favorite months of the year since it is not too hot, not too cold, and leaves start to change colors. The best part of October is Halloween where people can dress and run around public without be judged how weird they look (I am one of the weirdos). For Tammy and Patrick, it looked like they were a fan of October and had a ghoulish Halloween spirit too! Danny and I started this engagement photography session a bit later than our usual photo shoots just to get the mood right for these two love birds. We started off running around Los Angeles Union Station at night through the grand halls and dark corridors of the subway station. Once we had our fill of engagement photos at LA Union Station, we took the photo shoot to the surface in J-Town and concluded at Hotel Figueroa in Downtown Los Angeles financial district. Enjoy.

I hope you all liked this quick preview of what they had in stored for their wedding! Just a quick hint about how much they like Halloween – their wedding cake had a spider web design and was to die for.

Cheers,

p.s. – Yes, I am a bit late one posting this October engagement photo shoot…about 2 years late. Better late than never!

College Sweethearts | Jamie & Joey

July 15, 2013

disney concert hall wedding photographyUCLA has a special place in my heart not only as my alma mater, but what made my stay at UCLA worthwhile were the people that I have met along the way and became great friends. One of these instances was during finals week at Kerckhoff Hall when a buddy and I needed coffee to grind the night out. Coincidentally, we ran into a few friends and we were introduce to Jamie who studied with our friends. Ever since then it was one fun adventure after another! Now it was time for another chapter in their lives where her long-time college sweetheart, Joey, proposed to Jamie! To kick start their sweet story, Danny and I started off with a quick engagement photo session at Abalone Cove in Palos Verdes and Pasadena. The engagement photography session was quick, yet sweet. Enjoy the show.
