Jeanette & Andrew: married and loving it! These two got hitched on a warm and sunny (just like their flavorful personalities) afternoon at CEFC church. The day might have gotten a bit hot (it hit the 90’s at some point?!), but that’s just because Jeanette & Andrew and their entire wedding party straight brought the heat with their awesomeness. It was a blast working with these two and all their friends. Congratulations on tying the knot and on what the future has to hold! My best wishes!!

Good’ol sunshined Sundays in downtown LA are so relaxing! With its classic architectural charm and sprawling character, what’s not to like?! I think Amy & Julius would be quick to agree, as they both initially met each other downtown and still find themselves spending an a lot of time here. Downtown Los Angeles has a certain sweet allure.

Lucky for us, the shoot happened to be the day before the LA Marathon. It was great because that meant we could wander about closed-off streets and even better there were no crowds! Hah, at one point we contemplated taking pictures pretending to cross the marathon finish line. These two are a too cute! As we spent the afternoon together, I learned that Amy is a lawyer (which means I now have access to a get out of jail for free card) and Julius works for Family Guy (even better…access to cult classic paraphernalia). What stellar people to know!! Congratulations to both of you, a job well done! I’m sure you two will have a beautiful life together.

Smog Shoppe, Culver City, CA

Green and gorgeous, just like the Smog Shoppe, Rachel and Ron are straight up awesome people. Who else as active in the community and as progressive as they are would celebrate their wedding in one of the few green venues in LA. Between the Smog Shoppe and the Marvimon, that’s about it for green wedding venues in Los Angeles.  And by the way, the Smog Shoppe is way cool, it’s like a huge downtown la loft filled with timber ceiling beams, cinder blocked walls and roll up garage doors. It was a blast shooting here! Since the Smog Shoppe is a converted auto-mechanic shop, they stay true to their roots and even have engine motor belts hanging on some sidewalls. Cheers to you both Rachel & Ron, and my best wishes to your quest to impact the community!
