Jordana + Mike | mentor session

The wedding season is still in full swing around here, and we have been so blessed with shooting + traveling so much recently, but I feel I haven’t had too much time to keep up with blogging! There are so many things I still need to post about and many awesome weddings that I can’t wait to share. This week, my little brother is getting married, and I’m so unbelievably excited for him. Isaac and I are in the bridal party, so it’s going to be very interesting being on the other side. I’m going to try my best not to pick up my camera and start documenting everything! Now onto our post…a while back we did a full day mentor session for Nancy, who was just starting out in her photography business. We focused on developing a shooting style, learning how to nail exposure quickly while working in the field and using/harnessing natural light, and what it takes to start a small business. She’s such a sweet and amazing woman, and we had so much fun that day! Jordana + Mike were our awesome model couple for the afternoon! We love these two and can’t believe their wedding at Darlington House in San Diego is just right around the corner!

Kelly + Peter | wedding

Kelly + Peter’s wedding was epic…there is no other word to describe it! The day was absolutely perfect, the couple totally in love, and the reception ended with a rockin’ dance party at one of my favorite venues, the gorgeous Adamson House in Malibu! The day started at the Sheraton Delfina, and they were married at the St. Monica’s Church in Santa Monica. The vibrant bouquets were designed by Peony & Plum and Kelly’s make up was done by the talented Jamie Stevens. The band “The Players” kept the dance floor packed all night long…I mean everyone was dancing! Here are just a few of my favorites….

Kirstin | mentor session

A few weeks ago, Isaac and I taught a half day one on one mentor session with Kirstin of Beaux Arts Photographie. We went over tons of questions about shooting and processing with digital photography, since Kirstin learned with film, and working with natural light and off camera flash. Special thanks to Brooke + David for coming out to be our demo couple for this session! Brooke is a super awesome and crafty - you can check out her creations on her Etsy shops Whisper Handmade and Meef Wobble Also, I want to thank Kirstin for taking some shots of Isaac and I shooting - we don’t really have that many shots of us in action… brooke6brooke12brooke3brooke11brooke2brooke4brooke9brooke5brooke13brooke14brooke111brooke8brooke17brooke19brooke18brooke20brooke10brooke7brooke16brooke15
