I don't have very many words to say about Dina + Tai's wedding, except the fact that it is definitely one of my top ten favs! Let the images speak for themselves!
dt_001.jpgdt_002.jpgdt_003.jpgDina's dress....are you kidding me?! Let's just say that the rest of the day followed the style of dina's dress: awesome, beautiful, timeless, gorgeous, classic, fun!

The Halloween Party at the Ace Hotel was seriously one of the funnest parties Justin and I have ever been to! We were invited to photograph it as well, it was super duper awesome!! What made the night even better was the fact that everyone, I mean EVERYONE put 110% effort into their costumes.

Thanks to The Flash Dance, Bash Please, and friends for one of the raddest nights ever!

Justin & I went as skeletons with a bit of love....Yes, our costumes were home-made!

Wow, I can't believe it's already that time again to announce our next LYON-SHOP to take place in LAS VEGAS just before the big WPPI Convention! Who's in for a good time with us on FEBRUARY 19TH, 2011?!

The week we spend at the annual WPPI Convention is definitely one of our favorite weeks out of the whole year. It's a great place to learn, network, and meet fellow photographers in the industry! So if you're planning on going, or even thinking about attending a LYON-SHOP in the future, why not kill two birds with one stone and attend both?!

If you want in on the next LYON-SHOP on FEBRUARY 19TH, 2011 in LAS VEGAS CLICK HERE to reserve your seat now! 

You can also check out more info by visiting our official LYON-SHOP site! 

Can't wait to see who makes it in...Justin and I are getting giddy just thinking about it and how much fun we had last year!

Of course, where would the LYON-SHOP be without all of our rad sponsors...companies that we love, use, and appreciate?!

The LDS Temple in Santa Monica is one that we shoot at quite often, so it's always a fun challenge to try and reinvent ourselves each time Justin and I shoot there. This is actually where Justin and I got married, so I get super stoked to go back to visit and shoot on the grounds there.

Mary + Patrick's wedding was fun, colorful, and full of a ton of DIY details!

You know what's funny...I thought I knew these guys. They looked familiar, but then I realized the ones I know are named Matrick and Pary...so they're TOTALLY different.

I shot Sharon + Daniel's engagement session at the The London in West Hollywood. I loved the look of this location with Sharon + Daniel, so regal, rich, & tons of cool windows to work with!
sd_eng001.jpgsd_eng002.jpgsd_eng003.jpgsd_eng004.jpgMy favorite shot of the day! I was intrigued by the shadows & the sun shining through the windows.
