I would go nuts at the office without her. My best work bud, Jovi, is getting married in a few months and I was beyond honored she asked me to shoot her wedding. She and Eddie started dating around the time that we met, so I feel like I’ve been there to see every step of their relationship.

These two, I swear. You know those kids whose parents are constantly trying to catch their attention? I was the parent, and Eddie and Jovi were the kids.  “Hello! Over here, you guys!…Helloooooo?!” I always find it so much fun shooting people I know, because there’s no rapport to build. It was like the three of us just decided to meet at the Music Center and hang out.

Joves and Edward – ya’ did great! Can’t wait to party in September!

A love with a foundation of faith – that’s what Myra and Kragell share. With this comes a gentleness about them, but almost as evident, is how much fun they are. Despite expressing a nervousness about having their photos taken, they were  so sweet to and playful with each other that there wasn’t anything for them to worry about. 

They chose the Griffith Park Observatory, a place I’d never shot before, and they wanted to get some night-time images done. Color me panicked. I’d never done a night shoot before (at least on purpose), so I asked my buddy/mentor, Jaja, to come along with me for a pre-eshoot visit to the Observatory so I can figure out where all the light sources were. Turns out that at night, there’s light pretty much everywhere up top – you just have to find it.

Myra and Kraegell – you’re such a sweet couple, and so thoughtful too! (I drove to their session straight from the office that night so they bought me dinner – chicken nuggets and fries rock the party!). Can’t wait for your wedding this summer!
