Bridals- Amy: Fullerton Photographer ( + Starbucks card winner)

Saturday, May 30, 2009

Before we get to the meat of the post, I'd like to apologize for not posting this last night, but the winner of their very own Starbucks card is: The Pitts! (that's the only name we have for her so far!) [*edit* : its actually The Pinnts...I'm just lame and can't read...its hard for some people!] who left the comment- "I love vanilla, so give me a grande Iced Vanilla Latte and I'm a happy girl. Coffee Bean and Tea leafs Ice Blended Vanilla is actually my favoritest in the whole wide world."
There's a Coffee Bean and Tea Leaf right behind our house, so we'll definitely have to try that out! (plus, we think vanilla doesn't get enough credit. its a great flavor all by itself!)
So, congratulations Pitts, and please contact us ASAP with your name and mailing address so we can get your card to you soon!


Ok, on to the shoot!
I was going to blog this last week... then Buster dragged me down a hill and I had a busted ankle and was in a vicodin coma for about 3 days, but I'm fully functional now (mostly) so here we go:


The beautiful Amy was our model in this Down Town Fullerton shoot. I'm pretty sure my favorite part of her ensemble was the totally awesome lace, fabric, and bead bouquet made by Amanda of Design Whimsy (She not only creates beautiful non-floral bouquets, but also corsages, boutonnieres and a variety of other lovelies). Amy was also sporting an amazing bandeaux created by Fabledreams (she has some AMAZING pieces!). Half way through the shoot, though, Amy's true colors began to shine and she traded the heels and bandeaux for a pair of boots and a cowboy hat! Check it out:

Photobucket
Stunning smile.

While we were shooting this, an old lady walked by and said “oh, now don't let them put you in jail!” hahahaha!

And now for the switch-a-roo! Its party time...





Photobucket
Things got a little ca-raze-ay! Really though, this was one of the funnest shoots we've done-to date!






Photobucket
As we were shooting at this location, cars and trucks full of very enthusiastic admirers were honking and shouting at Amy... it was quite hilarious.






Photobucket
the Fox theatre... I thought it was fitting...






Photobucket

Photobucket

Photobucket

Photobucket
This one is my ABSOLUTE favorite of the day! Captured by Blake and Rocked out by Amy, I personally think its made of awesome.



Thanks so much to Amy and to Fabledreams and Design Whimsy! (who created another bouquet for us. a little purple and cream number for the shoot I'll be posting some time next week...). This is also the shoot where I discovered my new love: Starbucks' Blended Strawberry lemonade... * Homer Simpson drool *.

Ok, so I have a new sweet treat obsession. Blended Strawberry Lemonade from Starbucks. Can you say YUMMY?! While out on our superbly fantastic shoot this past Saturday in Down Town Fullerton with the very talented, VERY beautiful Amy, it was getting pretty stinking hot. we stopped for a cool treat and for the first time I ordered the STRAWBERRY blended lemonade...I had a mini food-gasm right then and there. I'm gonna have a hard time not spending a great deal of money on the cool, sweet, tangy goodness...

in honor of my new taste bud loving obsession, we are giving away a $5 Starbucks card! just comment with your favorite drink and why you love love love it! The winner will be chosen next Friday...


So lets hear it! what makes you drool?

Doubles: Jess+Sean in L.A.

Sunday, May 17, 2009

Tuesday the 12th we were scheduled to meet up with a bunch of other photographers from the [b] school in L.A. We brought our fave model, Jess and a newbie, Sean Paul, and we were totally ready to rock it with the other photogs! However, we were 15 minutes late and totally didn't connect with ANY other students! But … somehow...we carried on and had an awesome session! We started in Union Station and moved on to the Walt Disney Concert Hall. I am sooo amazingly pleased with our images and very thankful to the two very talented, very fun models.
(Also, as you can tell, we changed up the blog background to all white and we created a more subtle border for our blogged images. We'd love to know what you think about them!)

Photobucket
Here are our two gorgeous models! Don't they look great together? 
(no worries though... they're both single... aaaaand looking) 





Photobucket
loved the colorful tiles of this fountain. 





Photobucket
lovely light; lovely girl





Photobucket
this was such an uber-fun series! Sean was doing Tai Chi and Jess was dancing.





Photobucket
some f-zero action on these two crazy kids.





Photobucket
Broken, blue, mini windows = nice photo op.



Photobucket
In case you missed her bridal session, check out Jess' eyes. 





Photobucket
How cute are Jess's boots? LOVE THEM! (and Sean, your sandals are nice too)





Photobucket
We made our way to the Walt Disney Concert Hall for some more fun images!





Photobucket
Are you kidding me?! Yes, some real people are this beautiful. 





Photobucket
Gotta love those curves! (on the building, that is)






Photobucket
Why, yes! I believe he CAN melt hearts with this smile.





Photobucket

Photobucket
Thats right, its all about the Sony!!! (Jess was rockin' hers at the shoot too)





Photobucket

Photobucket

Photobucket

Photobucket

Photobucket
Blake and his Lensbaby doing their thang. (also, a little different editing. What do you think?)


So, sorry [b] schoolers we didn't ever meet up, but we really did have a blast just the 4 of us that day. We connected and hit this session right out of the ball park!
(Have I mentioned I ACHE to go to an Angels game... haven't been in too long...seriously...anyone...anyone...LETS GO!!!)
Anyway, thanks to Jess and Sean for looking so hot together! (and thanks to my hubby for lookin so hot with a camera! ;-D)

Bridals- Emily: Orange County Bridal Photographer

Monday, May 11, 2009

This weekend we had the pleasure of working with not 1… not 2 … but 3 fabulous vendors! Jody California provided the super fun, polka dot, black sashed wedding dress. The very talented and oh so fun Karla Reyes did Emily’s makeup (and she looked stunning!) and we were blessed to work with Brea Florist once again who provided the very classic red rose bouquet (with pearl accents.) Emily was a dream to work with and we are so happy with the images! See for yourself:
