I headed out to Palm Springs a few weeks ago to hang out with Cindy & Charlton at their favorite getaway in the desert, the Ace Hotel. This one had everything, cuteness, romance, sexiness and even a pool. Definitely one of my favorite engagements to date.
katie & greg / around the square
Whenever I get to photograph a dog, especially a dope dog like Larry, its always hilarious to see the expressions that they give me. They seem so aware (and averse) to the camera that I can't help but crack up as I can see what they're thinking, which is, "get that camera out of my face." You gotta love pets. And you gotta love Katie and Greg, who took me around their neighborhood for some fun photographs. I also wanted to share their Save the Date, which is designed by my friend and designer, Patricia Kim of Fourteen-Forty who is working with me on some branding (if I can ever send her my writeups), so definitely check out her work.
valerie & charlie / a quick stop
I had met Charlie a few years back in San Diego, he had always been a big proponent of my photography and being a man with a cam himself, he knows what he wants for his and Valerie's photos. So a few months ago, Charlie and Valerie traveled up from Virginia and bringing their love of swing dance and books, we hopped all around Manhattan.
emma & michelle / heart and home
I love starting at my couples homes for their engagement sessions and when your home is a super modern apartment in the West Village, then sign me up. Emma and Michelle, I will live in your kitchen and pay rent, seriously.
andrea & bryn / from whence they came
You might recognize Andrea & Bryn from their New York engagement on my homepage, which by the way, we photographed during a heatwave. Talk about a hot couple (pun intented). We scheduled the second half of their engagement session in the Bay area, specifically San Francisco and Marin, where they met. So here's a throwback to the beginning of their love story, with their awesome dog Patrick along for the ride.
