Boy goes to party. Girl goes to party. Boy meets Girl. Girl knocks Boy’s socks off and the two fall in LOVE.
In Patty and Brian’s case, it’s totally a true story! Patty was celebrating her recent graduation from college and Brian just happened to be invited to the party by a friend of a friend. And the two of them were truely destined to meet… you can see it in both their eyes every time they look at each other.

I met up with them at Santa Monica Pier for their engagement shoot, and their wedding will be at the end of this month. They both are nervous types when anyone points a camera in their direction, but they were great sports and pretty much let me take creative control with no reservations (the best type of people to work with!!) :D

Gee, I remember when I could fit in those!

Ooh things are gettin steamy around here!


Did I mention dolphins are my favorite animal?

I love the reds and pinks on this building:

And I just adore the feeling of this one:

They both said they don’t like photos taken of them usually, but judging by how these turned out, I say they should brake that bad habit ;)


Taking a stroll on the boardwalk….

A day at Santa Monica Pier wouldn’t be complete without some under the bridge shots ;)




See what I mean by being awesome sports? They even consented on getting their feet wet and sand-y!

Oh and let’s not forget that BLING!

One of my favorites of the day:

Thanks for a wonderful time you guys!! See you again really soon! ;)
