Union Station Los Angeles, CA

Roaring trains & locomotives…art deco galore…and a heck of a lot of laughter and fun!!  Union Station Los Angeles is quickly getting up there as one of my favorite spots in LA to shoot it up.  I love the detail of the entire station, it holds so much beautiful classic charm.  Plus I have a natural affinity for trains, when it comes to stations and spotting, I’ve got a one-track mind.  I had the pleasure of hanging again with Cherie and Hedley of Cheriefoto, two great mentors, and I had a blast with them at Union Station.  It was a beautifully classic wedding, congrats Taya & Chris!

Union Station is so grandeur and charming…perfect for weddings!  I love these huge immense windows as well as all the ornate art deco detail at Union Station.

Katie: Amazing photos, I love it!

Audrey and Eric win for being the first couple this year to travel from out-of-state for an e-session.  And….drumroll….please…ddaada-dum-dah…they came all the way from Portland, Oregon!  They seemingly left behind that cold Northern Coast weather and brought their warm hearts and green smiles to Southern California for an e-session.  (Never mind that they happened to be down here in Los Angeles this past weekend for one of their friend’s weddings, they still win!) Audrey and Eric are great, they’re one of those couples who make you feel right at ease when you meet them.  They’re simply just too nice!  They even grow their own vegetables in a garden at their house, what’s not to like about them!  For the shoot we decided went back to Audrey’s alma mater - the zot zot campus.  For you Orange County folk, you know I’m talking about none other than the great UC Irvine!  It’s always good fun visiting this campus with it’s motley crew of unique buildings.  It was a nice afternoon of touring the campus, chatting it up and stopping for the occasional photo. Congratulations and I wish you the best!

annie: simply gorgeous. i don't even remember UCI ever looking so good when i visited. your eye for shots just keeps getting better.

Anonymous: Aw it's social sciences plaza.

theresa williams: too cute!!

The streets of Silverlake are not safe when Emily and Mark are around. Vacant fields of rice paddy bushes go trampled upon. Unmanned John Deere tractors get terrorized. Needless to say, these two are a blast to hang out with! The entire e-session was complete with karate chops, piggy back rides and lot & lots of laughter. I look forward to hanging out with these two more, life’s always good times when they’re around. Congratulations!

Cammie & Tri are not afraid of colors at all!  When we arrived at Pershing Square in downtown LA they quickly gravitated towards all the vibrant colored walls before I could even suggest them.  I think it’s fitting as the bright walls do match their bright personalities.  It was a lot of fun hanging out with these two and they were total troopers throughout the day.  We shot the weekend of the heatwave and it got pretty hot up in thurrr.  But despite the 90+ degrees, these two braved it like champs and still dommed the formal attire.  It was well worth it and the photos turned out great!!  Congratulations to you two and I’d love to be a part of your special day.
