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.

Okay party people, you're VERY lucky...you're getting TWO wedding posts today...on a FRIDAY! This only happens once in a blue moon.;)
Loved Cassie + Eugene's wedding for so many reasons, but to be more specific: 1. Their wedding was held at one of my favorite venues in LA called The Skirball Cultural Center. 2. Nancy Park from So Happi Together coordinated the big day. 3. Nicole DeAnne did Cassie's hair & Make-up 4. I heart Cassie + Eugene...of course!
Want to see more? Check out Cassie + Eugene's online slideshow!
Have a safe weekend everyone!

I love the "heart" reflection in the ring shot. I'm not sure if it was on purpose or even noticed, but either way it's still great!

Absolutely, hands down, without a doubt....if I had one lens to live with the rest of my life it would be....the 35mm 1.4 L-series Canon lens!

Lindsey + Chris were married on September 10th at the Padua Hills Theatre. Upon arrival, I thought to myself, "of course Lindsey and Chris would pick this venue for their wedding, it's very theatrical!". As I mentioned in their engagement session post, Lindsey + Chris both have a passion for the performing arts and the Padua Hills Theatre was perfect to represent who they are and what they love!
My favorite item of the day: Lindsey's birdcage veil.
The expression on Lindsey's face right before she + Chris see each other for the first time that day...

We are SO excited to announce that we've been snagged for the upcoming Hitched Event on January 30th at the Ace Hotel in Palm Springs. The first Hitched Event was earlier this year and when we heard about it's awesomeness we wanted to be a part of it so bad and wondered how we could be in on the next one. Then a few weeks ago, to our very pleasant surprise, we received an email letting us know that we've been SNAGGED (chosen) by the lovely ladies that run the Hitched Event, Paige Appel & Kelly Harris of Bash Please and Audrey Tantaros of Urbanic Paper Boutique.
One specific reason Justin and I are super excited about this event is because of the unique scale this bridal show holds. It is EXACTLY what the wedding industry, full of upcoming artsy creative couples, needs!
If you're getting hitched, or planning on getting hitched in the near future, you can't miss out on this rad event, plus we'll be there so stop by and visit us!:)
To get a visual of what this event is all about head on over to The Flash Dance Blog to see a video put together by SharkPig. I promise, it'll make you itch to be a part of it!

So excited to show off my little brother Jordan + his sweet new wife Cassie! Loved their wedding, of course, family is always fun to capture, especially on such a memorable day like their wedding day!
Cassie, welcome to the family! I knew you and Jordan would end up together! You looked GORGEOUS darling! Jordan, I'm a proud big sister, what a handsome groom you turned out to be!
I must give credit to my talented little sister Nicole DeAnne for Cassie's beautiful hair + make-up!
My favorite shot of the day! We totally just stumbled upon this bridge, and it definitely spiced up our shots for the day!
Love you both Jordan + Cassie, Justin and I couldn't be happier for you two!!! Check out the online slideshow...CLICK HERE!
