Yvonne and Ron - Venice Beach Engagement Photography

I really can't say this enough, I have the COOLEST couples in the world!! Yvonne and Ron were definitely no exception. I headed to Venice Beach to photograph the couple and had some of my favorite images within minutes of our session. They were pros! Of course, it's very easy to photograph a couple that is so in love with each other like Yvonne and Ron are.

We started out at the beach for some fun photos and I was so into it that I was almost run over by a beach cop! I just couldn't take my camera off these guys, can you blame me?



















After the beach we walked over to the canals of Venice....who knew, right? Having once lived in Italy and visited the real Venice, I just had to check out how the California version stacked up. Well, it was very beautiful and pretty close to the original, just without the gondolas and foul smell! We ended up with some great photos while wondering around there....











There's even a little wildlife out there! You would never know you're just west of downtown Los Angeles....





After the canals it was off to beautiful Chace Park in Marina Del Rey....









I wouldn't touch the hair if I were you!









Looking forward to your Manhattan Beach wedding in August guys!!

Josi and Ryan - Santa Monica Engagement Photography

This past Saturday I spent the day with my bestess (is that even a word?) friends in the world to photograph their engagement session in Santa Monica. Loyal blog readers will remember Josi and Ryan from my post on Ryan's awesome proposal. It was a very laid back session that ended with some awesome funnel cake on the pier.

We hit the 3rd Street Promenade to start out the session....









Then it was down to the beach and the famous Santa Monica Pier....









It's only a suggestion, right?







Time to hit the sand....





















Game time!



There's the Ryan I know....
