Wedding :: Starla + Alexander

     Starla and Alexander got married at the O'Donnell House in Palm Springs.  Their wedding was filled with classic details and the wonderful ambiance of an outdoor wedding under the stars.  Thanks to Michael Fletcher for having me along to second shoot.  Enjoy some of my favorites!

     This cake had such pretty details!

     Sometimes I forget that when guests are eating, there is some time to sneak in a more creative shot - especially during a blue hour like this one!

Portrait :: Southern California Lifestyle Photography

         When Valerie contacted me about doing a lifestyle session with her family, I was more than happy to oblige.  I'm all for beautifully posed photos, but there is a peaceful calm about just photographing the norms of everyday life.  Valerie wanted photos of her girls doing what they love, and of course, pictures of their family time together.  This involved getting their hair done, playing, reading, coloring, running around, going for a walk, and ice cream to cap off the day!  Enjoy! :) 

Catalina Island Wedding Photography :: Elisabeth + Kevin

     I jumped at the chance to second shoot this wedding in Catalina Island with Michael Fletcher.  Elisabeth and Kevin were a super laid back yet elegant couple, which matched the backdrop of their wedding perfectly! 

     I loved so many details about their wedding, especially their invitations!

     We were able to take a golf cart around Avalon and get some photos!
