Schumacher TWINS: Jake & Luke

Jake and Luke were the first newborn twins I have ever shot, and with two instead of one came double the challenge, but DOUBLE THE CUTENESS! You can see what I mean:

Jasper Family: Danny, Beth, and Harper!

I first met Danny at Prospect Mortgage about 10 months ago... right around the time his wife was about 8 months pregnant. Since this was their first, he was all the more excited to share details as Beth's due date approached. And then finally, the day arrived! When Danny returned from his time off, we had new cell phone pictures to enjoy everyday as Daddy fell more and more in love with his little Harper! Then, when Harper got to a point where she could sit up, Danny and his wife asked me to do a family shoot, and of course, I said yes! So on Easter Sunday we headed out to Balboa park where the beautiful cherry blossoms were in bloom. Perfect backdrop for a gorgeous little girl! 

Big thanks to my hubby for spinning around in circles causing Harper (Danny & Beth, too!) to laugh to get just the perfect shot. He is my favorite assistant :) 

Smog Shoppe Wedding: Margaux & Chad Fraise | 3.16.12

When I think back to Margaux and Chad's wedding day at LA's Smog Shoppe, all I think is, "Wow!" As you will witness, there was so much detail and thought put in to make this wedding look absolutely beautiful. Margaux is a talented up-and-coming event designer, and when you view the images, you will clearly see why! Her style is sophisticated and classy... but overall, my absolute favorite detail of the whole day was Margaux and Chad's first look. Chad seemed nervous, but excited, and I think even Margaux was surprised by her own emotion. But when Chad turned around to see his bride for the first time, it made everything worth it. Every plan, schedule, detail, and thought that was put into that day. Thank you, Margaux and Chad, for letting me be so personally involved on such a special day.
