Efren and Melissa's Wedding - Pismo Beach, Ca

Melissa is my mother in laws BFF, and I was so excited to photograph her marriage to Efren...who is a very kindhearted man. Efren and Melissa got married in a little gazebo on a cliff overlooking the ocean in Shell Beach. The ceremony was small, to the point and very romantic :) And the reception was at Giuseppe's in Pismo Beach, which is a beautiful location.

Chris and Shiran's Holga Engagements

Chris brought his Holga camera for Jesse to mess with during their engagement session, he had a lot of fun with it.

Chris and Shiran's Engagements - SLO, Ca.

Chris and Shiran are so fun. I always get so excited to finally meet people that I feel I already know through only phone conversations. Shiran and Chris are a great match!

We started out the day meeting at Sally Loos (of course) and then headed on over to the Laguna Lake Park, and had our fingers crossed the whole way that it wont rain. It didn't take long until the sun started peaking through the clouds and we got some really nice light. Then we drove out to Montana De Oro and the sky just blew me away...it was just full of soft swirls. But Jesse and I knew of one more place we wanted to go, somewhere were we have always wanted to take a couple. Shiran and I both love Eucalyptus so this place was perfect.

Chris is a film editor out of LA and has a film currently up for an Oscar. Congratulations again Chris, this is truly amazing. To check out the film, Kavi, please visit this link: www.kavithemovie.com

Ryan and Kathryn's Bridal Session- SLO, Ca

Ryan and Kathryn got married just over two months ago, but we decided to do a separate bridal session so we could make most of the time frame of the actual wedding day. Any excuse to get all dressed up again and play wedding for one more day is fine by me ;) Kathryn looks just as gorgeous as she did on the actual day and Ryan is pretty handsome too. I loved this photo shoot and I am very happy to share it with you all.

Saira and Jerad Maternity - SLO, Ca

Jesse and I photographed Saira and Jerad's wedding in September 2008. I literally jumped for joy when I received the email that they were pregnant and wanted me to document it. Saira ended up having little Jack about a week after this session, and I can't wait to meet him. Jesse and I are traveling up to Truckee, Ca where they live at the end of this month to take his newborn photos.
