Twin Oaks Garden Estate Wedding | D & C

As much as I love to be the lead photographer for my own weddings, I love second shooting. There is something about being able to photograph beautiful weddings with other photographers that I absolutely love. I have been privileged enough to shoot with some really amazing photographers. Richelle from Richelle Dante Photography allowed me to second with her at the cutest venue ever! Twin Oaks Garden Estate was too adorable! The bridal suite, decorated with beautiful vintage furniture, was originally a school house dating back to 1891. It was definitely one of my favorite venues of 2013. Here are a few favorites from Danny and Crystal's special day.

Thanks for stopping by!!

Covina Portrait Session|Gaby

My friends are gorgeous and I love when I get to photograph them! Gaby is so much fun. She is genuine, kind, and totally becoming a close friend. I met her in my makeup artistry class. She is on her way to finishing cosmetology school. I love how we can talk about life, love, and beauty.

Here are the photos of our fun photo session!!

Personal Portrait Session | Covina, California

My wonderful sister let me photograph her today. I am currently going to school to become a certified make up artist so it was a great opportunity to use my new found skills as well as make beautiful photos. I loved making my sister feel beautiful because she definitely is! Here are a few favorites from today.

Anaheim Styled Session | Jeremy Chou Workshop

I had the awesome opportunity to assist and attend  Jeremy Chou's Photography Workshop.I meet him last weekend while assisting a wedding for him. He is such a friendly, helpful guy. I loved learning from him. The day of the workshop we meet in a lovely studio located in Fullerton then headed to a styled shoot planned by Just Wenderful with the help of furniture from This & That Vintage Rental. The wonderful flowers were provided by Pixies Petals and beautiful stationary by KM Paperie. I absolutely adored the bouquet and I even got to take it home!! Shh! Don't tell anyone. Leslie, the bride made by Serene Bridal Beauty, looked so gorgeous in her wedding gown. Leslie and her husband, Jaime, were awesome models, it probably helps that they were such good looking people. I loved how they interacted with each other, it definitely wants me to photograph more couples in love! Thank you, Jeremy Chou! Anytime you need another assistant, I'm available. :)
