Melissa & Arthur, Thousand Oaks, Ca

You can tell from the very first image that this was a fun wedding! Actually the jumping was mostly due to the fact that it was FREEZING and it was a natural way to keep warm! ha ha
I photographed this wedding on December 13th in T.O. The day started out rainy and cold.. and ended up sunny and cold, (which is a much better option of course). That being said, I've had a great time getting to know Melissa & Arthur and it always gives me satisfaction to produce images that I'm proud of showing. Please enjoy a few of my favs ~ D

For the birds...

So was I on a nature walk or just looking out my office window? Of course I have no time for a nature walk!! These pretty little creatures took over the tree outside my window and inspired me to capture a few images. It was pretty funny actually, I was working... editing, calling, emailing with one eye on the tree to my left. If there's any bird lovers out there, what exactly is the name of this yellow one?

Becky & Brian ~ Los Angeles, Ca

Just last Saturday on Dec 20th I photographed Becky & Brian's wedding in the heart of L.A. I started shooting Becky and the girls at the Sofitel Hotel. Right from the beginning I could tell that this was going to be a fun day as the energy and excitement was immediately felt! I've included a few of my initial favorites here below. One of my absolute picks is the image of Brian lifting Becky in the air during their very well choreographed first dance. Please enjoy!

My sons ~ Jaden & Maddox

It's been a few months since I've posted images of my boys. I took these around Thanksgiving.. the pumpkin patch session has become an annual tradition for the Baker family. We went to the Tierra Rejada Pumpkin Patch and then back to the studio for a little variety. I'm just so in love with these little guys and it gives me such great pleasure to be able to capture them "the way I see them" :)
