Elizabeth's Graduation Portrait Shoot, UCLA.

I had the pleasure of photographing a fellow Bruin. I met Elizabeth, an Italian major with a special field in International Relations, this past Friday. She will be graduating in June and will be looking for a career in imports/exports or in project management. I like her sense of adventure. She has many places she'd like to relocate to.

Elizabeth was a natural in front of the camera. I didn't need to give her a lot of direction.  Many times she would just gracefully move around and I was able to capture her best angles!



We were able to take really elegant photographs at Royce Hall located in one of the central locations of UCLA.

Ducks in the Venice Canals.

Langley/Scott Family Beach Shoot!

Hi All!
This past weekend, I had the opportunity to photograph one of my good friends, Cindal, and her family. She shares a beautiful daughter, Scarlett, with her beau of almost 5 years, Kevin. We had this shoot planned for quite some time but we had some weather complications holding us back. However, I'm very happy that we waited because the weather was perfect and it gave us time to really discuss Cindal's vision for the shoot. We shot in the afternoon at the beach in their hometown Hermosa Beach, California. The sun was slowly setting so it added a beautiful glow around the family. 



 Cindal's smile and laugh is contagious.



 This shot is one of my favorites. Scarlett will be turning 2 in May. She is so vivacious and intelligent! Talking up a storm, it was very entertaining to see her facial expressions and see her passion for life at such a young age.



I brought lavender to the shoot with some intention of using it. Scarlett automatically wanted to carry it around the whole beach. 



Kevin and Cindal are coming up on their 5th year anniversary in June. They make such a great pair.




This sequence was a lot of fun. Miss Scarlett loved every minute of it!




I've known Cindal for almost 8 years. She and I went to the same high school. We met in our school's drama department and hit it off. Her beauty really resonates in this photo. I always knew that one day she would be such a beautiful mother.



I hope you enjoy looking at these photographs as much as I loved taking them.
