Tina & Sahil - Engagement Session at Solstice Cayon Drive

Tina & Sahil - Engagement Session at Solstice Cayon Drive

Tina and Sahil are recently engaged and must be one of the most fun loving and quirky couples I've had the pleasure of working with. For their engagement session we went on a little hike at the Solstice Canyon Drive and had a blast getting to know each other while exploring the beautiful trails of the park. They are also as obsessed with ice cream as I am, and after the session drove all the way to Koreatown to try my favorite spot for liquid nitrogen ice cream at Awesome Coffee on Wilshire. Coolest couple ever? I think so. :)

Lauren & Anthony - Engagement Session in Venice Canals, CA

Lauren & Anthony - Engagement Session in Venice Canals, CA

Venice Canals must be one of the most romantic and charming neighborhoods in Los Angeles, and that is exactly why Lauren and Anthony decided to head over their for their engagement session. There is so much to explore in the canals - every time I come back, I discover new hidden spots and cute little corners.  Lauren and Anthony are so cool and laid back, it was an absolute pleasure hanging out with them. I can't wait to photograph their wedding next year in Rancho Las Lomas! Lauren's family is Lebanese, so you know it will be quite the party. :)

Ariana's Baby Shower - Afternoon Tea Time at the Beverly Hills Peninsula

Ariana's Baby Shower - Afternoon Tea Time at the Beverly Hills Peninsula

Let's be honest, if there is a right way when it comes to celebrating a new life, it is while drinking afternoon tea at the luxurious and elegant Beverly Hills Peninsula hotel. Ariana's bridal shower took place at one of their whimsical and airy private rooms, the Magnolia Room. Completely designed and styled by Ariana's mother, Lynn, the room was filled with overwhelmingly thoughtful details. The theme was build around the tales by Beatrix Potter, which were Ariana's favorite as a child, and the space was decorated with soft blush and fresh pastel greens to celebrate sweet baby girl on the way. This is just the kind of baby shoer that makes your heart flutter.

Dianne & Christian - Engagement Session in Malibu Creek State Park, CA

Malibu Creek State Park is quickly becoming my favorite location for engagement photos. It is calm, quiet and has stunning views - perfect for lifestyle photography with a romantic twist. 

This was one of those engagement sessions, where I could've posted every single image I took that day with Dianne and Christian. The chemistry between these two is absolutely magical, and Malibu Creek State Park added just the right amount of drama. This engagement session was every photographer's dream! Here are some of my favorite photos from our shoot (it was SO hard to pick!).

Sam & Chris - Engagement Session at USC

I cannot get over how incredibly adorable and cute these two look together! Sam and Chris met while going to school at USC, and showed me some secret spots on campus during their engagement session. I was so excited we got to take some of those rooftop photos! And they kept me extra happy by bringing cupcakes :) I am so looking forward to their wedding later this summer!

Farha & Shiraz - Wedding Anniversary session at UCLA

Farha & Shiraz - Wedding Anniversary session at UCLA

Although I love engagement sessions, this shoot with Farha and Shiraz holds a special place in my heart. After realizing they don't have any photos of the two of them together, Farha and Sharaz made a pact on their wedding day to have a photo session every single year to celebrate their love. It is so rewarding to capture the special sweet little occasions like this 1 year anniversary!
