Harvey said:
Awesome work (as always) Amelia!!! But I'm biased, this world needs more Harvey's and this little man looks like the perfect little H! He's adorable!!

Amelia! Thank you so much for these beautiful pictures of Harvey! I LOVE them. One of my many favorites is the last one with daddy. It might just have to be blown up and hung in his nursery. I don't think you'll ever know how much I value the wonderful pictures you take of my little family. Thank you.

Oh how I love these. Okay..honestly, I love all your work and I should have started commenting a long time ago. I love how you bring out the joy in your clients. And I can't wait to see your family add this little girl. Thanks for reminding me that this is possible with three kids. You're an inspiration...

One of my favorite venues in Downtown Los Angeles is at Cafe Pinot right in front of the LA Library. It's right in the heart of all the buildings. Driving by you would never guess that it's a wedding venue, but when the sun goes down and the wedding is all set up, it's a sight to see! This is where Fred + Grace held their wedding. I've shot there once before, so I was definitely looking forward to doing it again! What a fantastic day, sweet bride + groom, and Angie Sloan by my side second shooting!

We started with prep photos at The Standard...that's always a good place to start out a wedding day!:)
frwed_002.jpgfrwed_003.jpgfrwed_004.jpgfrwed_005.jpgThe tulle on Grace's dress was unreal, so much, and SO much fun! This was my favorite detail of the day! Grace's dress by Vivian Lee of Tomato Weddings.
frwed_006.jpgfrwed_007.jpgfrwed_008.jpgMy favorite shot of the day!
frwed_009.jpgfrwed_010.jpgfrwed_011.jpgfrwed_012.jpgfrwed_013.jpgfrwed_014.jpgGrace was total GORGEOUS! Thanks to Nicole DeAnne for the lovely hair & make-up!

In the very rare occasion when I'm unable to shoot a wedding, our clients will opt to hire Justin to be their wedding photographer (that is when he isn't busy working away producing some crazy kids television show or making a movie). Justin chose to bring along none other than the amazingly talented Matt Sloan as the second shooter. Together they were the dream-team and got some fantastic shots! Here's Tiffany & Wylie's wedding!

Your images are beyond amazing. I have followed you for quite some time now but never have commented. I have come here for inspiration because I will be shooting my first very very large yet very intimate wedding at a 5 star resort in California for an amazing graphic designer and I knew you wouldn't disappoint!!! I have shot weddings before but nothing of this caliber. Thank you for always putting a smile on my face and for being completely and utterly amazing at what you do!!!

Justin and I shot Remi + Kristin's engagement right in the middle of South Coast Plaza...it was a brilliant location to shoot at, I would have never chosen it if Kristin hadn't suggested it. I'm super excited for Remi + Kristin's wedding on September 3rd...this'll be the last wedding before our little baby arrives, so it's sort of a count down date for me, I can't wait (for the wedding AND for a new little baby)!:)
