Jennifer and Soap's Wedding

I met with Jennifer and Soap several months ago when they're in the planning stage of their wedding. They're just the absolutely sweetest and caring people I have ever meet. I know they worked really hard to get this wedding organized, and I'm really happy that their wedding turned out to be exactly the way they envisioned. This is the one wedding that I've really looked forward in 2008, and I think all the effort and prep work really paid off and the pictures speak for themselves. Thanks Jenn! Thanks Soap! Congratulations again and I'm truly happy for you guys. I really was speechless and almost broke into tears when you held my hands telling me that I'll be your perma-friend. That's the kind of job satisfaction I know I'll never get doing anything else... at the end of the day, I'm happy that I did my job, and I'm also glad that I made a difference. :)

Engagement Session : Maria & Andy

A few months ago I photographed Gail and Yong's wedding, and only a few months after, it's going to be Yong's brother Andy and his fiancé Maria getting married in October! :) We picked a Monday and went off to a couple of locations in West LA, and wrapped up the day shooting at the beach on a beautiful sunset. In the end, Maria picked the picture she liked, Andy kept his tummy filled eating every 2 hours along the way, and I got to shoot my favorite silhouette also. I look forward to your wedding day, congratulations again! =)

Session for the Little One: Isaac

Sorry folks I'm still here, just really getting behind updating my website and my blog lately. A lot has happened lately and I've been busy working on photos rather than my sites. I've also been working with a couple of vendors trying to narrow down which one to use in producing the album for the ONE package. Before I get sidetracked again, here are the pictures I took of Isaac, Peter, and Beverly for their baby session. It's not something that I normally do, but I sure did enjoy it and had tons of fun... and neck pain to go with it after. =)
