Julie & Evike's Engagement Session

The Biltmore hotel in downtown LA is gorgeous but I found it difficult to shoot without a vid light or flash. Most of my photos turned out grainy... so, I decided to make this my vintage collection! Not exactly the style I'm trying to develop but I absolutely love the film-esque quality to it.

Evike and Julie was a pleasure to work with. Their love and passion just comes through the photos. Many of the shots were taken while they were just "being themselves" :)

Much love to Evike & Julie.

Experimental Photos

Jackie was such a pleasure to work with. I wanted this set of photos to give off an absurd, illogical impression- something that will cause the audience think twice about the photo- to look at it for 2 seconds longer to ponder it's meaning.

As the photoshoot went on, I began to get these ideas of awkward poses that later translated into some of our "awkward moments" haha. Jackie was very cooperative and went long with each and every one of my requests. We both had to step out of our comfort zone in order to get some of these great shots! Jackie described her experience as "awkward sometimes, but not uncomfortable" :)

Jackie, thanks for being so much fun to work with! YOU ROCK!
