I had so much fun hanging out with Janelle & Eric.  It really is cool to see how they’re so well loved by their friends and family.  It’s always so special to be in the midst of that. 

 

Okay, I’ve got a story here.  Poor Janelle was so dehydrated from the high heat that day that we had to take a breather during our portrait session.  Here’s them cooling down and resting…while they did that, I did the ring shot above.  Heehee, gotta make every minute count!

 

There’s a few more coming.  Stay tuned!!!

This is an assignment that I did for a non profit organization called JOYA Scholars.  JOYA is an organization that wants to bring educational awareness to low income neighborhoods like the Garnet District.  Along with Solidarity (a non profit organization that’s in the Garnet District, they have various after school programs for the kids in the community), JOYA wants to encourage and promote kids to dream big and dream what seems like the impossible for them….higher education. 

Here are some photos from the neighborhood….enjoy. 

GET INVOLVED!!! 

I loooove this photo…so moody and romantic

 

This is such a simple photo, but there’s something about this photo that I just gravitate towards…

It was so fun exploring Crystal Cove with Raquel and Greg.  Thank you guys for showing me around, such a beautiful place.

 

They are my favorite people in the world!!!  Aren’t they just so cute?  I love it when Marcus is blowing bubbles.  Malcolm is the exact replica of my cousin Beverly.  LOL.  It’s hilarious.

The entire slideshow is at the end of this post.  Enjoy!

Kris DJed part of his own wedding!

 

I went up to Sac town this past weekend for Laura & Kris’ wedding.  It rained the entire weekend, and we have to do some last minute changes.  But it’s all good.  Here are some detail shots from the first part of the day.  I don’t usually like detail shots, but I’m in love with these shots.  Heehee.

What do you think?

Kim and Frank wanted to take some photos at the beautiful Laguna Beach.  I’m so glad they picked that location because I’ve never been to the spots they took me to.  It was beautiful!  Hope you enjoy the photos. 

I couldn’t decide which photo I liked better….so here’s the two versions:
clean and simple

Moody and romantic

Another photo I couldn’t decide on….

I love this photo!
 

I love the crazy, weird colors in this one!

So which ones are your favorites?

 

 

 

Thank you for sharing your big day with me.  I’m blessed to have been part of it.  Your two families are just plain awesome!
