Usually I write a blurb about my couple and their unique and wonderful relationship. I thought I’d tell you instead a little story from Lai + Mike’s engagement session at the Griffith Observatory. So typically my couples and I discuss engagement locations and different ways to make their session more personal (i.e. meaningful locations, props relating to their favorite things). In Lai + Mike’s case, Mike told me flat out that they didn’t have any…read more
Love is definitely in the air and everywhere! A fellow UCLA alum, AnhDao told me that her and Apollo love to spend their pastime reading books so we decided the gorgeous UCLA campus and library would be the perfect backdrop for their engagement session. I had AnhDao + Apollo kissing/goofing off in the library but I made sure we didn’t talk on our cell phones =P. I always enjoy spending time with these two and…read more

From the photos below, you can…read more
“i’ll be loving you forever” What I can relate to most about Anna is our mutual teeny bopper love affair (i.e. NKOTB, Edward Cullen and dare I say Justin Bieber?!). But what I admire most about Anna (besides her height) is her success in finding such a good man and carrying out such strong bonds with her family, all the while continuing to pursue her teenage dreams. Anna + Ryan compliment each other in so…read more
“my one and only love” It’s hard to believe the first time I met Margaret + Mua was on their wedding day! They booked me on the phone after finding me on google :).

These two are completely silly and in love with each other. I found myself laughing more than shooting, which is a…read more
