Elysian Wedding Photography Images

If you’re thinking that I look a little disheveled here, a little tired, or maybe like I’ve just had a long day, you’re right. This was shot by the lovely Elizabeth Zuluaga a few weeks back at her Elysian wedding in Los Angeles. It was indeed a long [hot!], tiresome, [clearly] disheveling day. And sometimes a girl can only look as good as the drab corner she’s standing in.

That’s just the way it is for a wedding photographer: we gotta rock the day, focus on you, listen, look, catch and create as the most important day of your life unfolds. It’s a beautiful responsibility, and I love it. I just don’t always have time to check the mirror, fix my hair or sometimes even wipe the sweat from my brow. Can you forgive me?

I hope so! Because this is the time of year for forgiveness, for renewal, for celebration! Kali Anastasi my lovely Orthodox friends! I’ll be heading straight to church tonight to celebrate Pascha after shooting a wedding all day. Forgive me for my appearance. Love me anyway. And let’s receive and share the Light!

Fun Engagement Photos

When I asked Bree and Tim what kinds of activities they like to do for fun, Tim quipped, ‘I don’t know, there’s just so much room for activities!’ I liked him immediately.

They are definitely an active pair, playing on the same softball team, working out together, going to the river together, play frisbee on the sand together and anything that involves being silly and having fun. Which for Bree and Tim, happens just about everywhere they go. Their energy is bright and contagious and it made the gloomy day we got together for their engagement pictures just glow.

That’s what happens with people like Bree and Tim though; they just light up every room they enter and brighten every hilltop they climb. I’m so looking forward to shooting their wedding this weekend at the Rancho Santa Margarita Lake. They’re gonna dazzle that sucker up good.

Baby Photography

You do not have to make your children wonderful people. You just have to remind them that they are wonderful people.

If you do this consistently from the day they are born they will believe it easily.

Wedding Photography at The Elysian

Sarenas and Therese got married in a whirlwind of love and support last Saturday at The Elysian in Los Angeles. I shot this one for my homegirl Elizabeth Zuluaga Photography and we rocked the day alongside the uber radness of the two lovely brides. Check out Liz’s blog for the full story soon.

For now I just had to share this wedding photo with another amazing quote from Rumi that I fits perfectly for the love of Sarenas and Therese. They’re two ladies that are making this world of ours a better place by being in it together…

“Lovers find secret places inside this violent world where they make transactions with beauty.”

-Rumi
