Last weekend I had the pleasure of joining Huong and Thien to Catalina Island. The island is very special to these two: this is where they finally realized that they’re meant to be together… so it is only fitting that we shoot there. Huong and Thien decided to add an extra hour to their session to shoot some of her bridal as well, which I will put up on a separate post in the next couple of days. In the meantime, here are some of my favorites from the session!

We found this swing at the top-most part of this hill, which pretty much gives you a full view of the Avalon landing. I’m sooo happy to have such amazing clients who will put up with my requests. Thank you Huong and Thien for being such troopers! And of course when they asked ME to get on it, I didn’t have the guts to do so. Ha! :)

I have to include this last photo of Thien. For the record, I have no responsibility whatsoever for making him do this crazy stunt. I only cheered him on :)

Huong and Thien… thank you so much for the amazing day in Catalina! Wedding’s just 30 days away; I can’t wait! Watch the blog for a wedding and a bridal post in the next few!

I am sooo excited to post these photos from last weekend’s engagement session! I normally take 2 weeks to put together a blog post especially when there’s others in line for posting, but since their wedding is coming up in less than 4 weeks, I thought I’d have some of my favorites up for them to see :) I’m so honored to have been entrusted to be part of the most precious moment of their lives, and let’s admit it, it’s not everyday we get to photograph a couple who looks like Ashton Kutcher and Gwyneth Paltrow, right?

From the moment we met last year over coffee, I knew it was a perfect fit. They have the same vision as I do and best of all, they look amazing in them :) For their e-session, we opted for a romantic picnic at the park. It has some vintage feel to it, which Sarah loves, and a relaxed mood that connects well with their personalities.

Ah, I can’t wait to shoot their wedding in a few weeks in Laguna Beach!

Sarah and Andrew, you guys are so amazing! Thank you so much for your trust.
Watch the blog for more posts to come in the next week!

Whenever we get booked, we always ask how our clients found us. Most common answer had been either Google search or a wedding blog listing. First time I’ve heard someone found us through Facebook :)

Anh and Tuan wanted to do a downtown shoot in La Jolla. It was my first time in the area and I loved it! Anh upgraded their session to include a Bridal, which I will blog on a separate post :) Downtown LJ had a relaxed atmosphere so we shot outdoors with natural light for the duration of the e-session.

I was suprised Anh and Tuan came with some of their friends. I got worried at first that they won’t get comfy with a lot of people watching, but I was mistaken! They’re such a fun crowd that I think they brought out the best laughs from the two.

I literally had to break the momentum here; they’re so hot for each other!

Oh Anh, you’re so gorgeous…

No one amuses Tuan more than Anh does, that’s for sure!

Bridal photos up on a cliff will be up soon! You wouldn’t want to miss it! :)
