Keeping Busy…

Last week, I got back from an AMAZING business trip (look at me being all adult and saying “business trip”) in Europe, where I was literally hired to take photos for a week, and my job description involved shopping and food.  I know, I still am pinching myself that I landed that gig. I never quite hit the level of jet lag I was expecting when I got back.

I’ll talk more about my trip soon (as soon as I get through all the photos!), but for now, here’s a sneak peek into the welcome back weekend: an engagement shoot on Saturday and a family shoot on Sunday.  I couldn’t have asked for a better job.  And to top it all off, today is my one-year anniversary working with Oh Joy!  Hooray!

Tattoo Parlor and Record Shop Engagement Session: Bryan + Ashley

Sometimes a couple comes along and they have the best ideas for photo shoots. This was a really fun one.

When I plan engagement shoots, I always try and make sure we shoot something that the couple really loves to do. When I met Bryan and Ashley, and found out that Bryan was in a band, I suggested we shoot their engagement session at a record store here in LA. About a week before our planned shoot, Ashley mentioned that they wanted to get tattoos together and wondered if I could document that as part of the engagement session.  I, of course, thought this was a BRILLIANT idea. I had seen a few engagement sessions in record stores, but never had I seen one of a couple getting tattoos together.

We went to Origami Vinyl on Sunset then walked up the street to El Classico Tattoo. B+A decided to get the number 21 tattooed on their left hands, for the date of their wedding, June 21st. We also happened to shoot this on February 21st!

I seriously can’t wait to shoot their wedding this summer, on the night of the solstice.  If these photos are any indication, it will be a really awesome ceremony.

10 on 10 Collaboration Project, Post 9

Yesterday, Bash, Please hosted an amazing event called The Cream here in Los Angeles.  I was SO EXCITED to go to this event, and I kinda overdid it on the amount of cameras I brought.  But, since it fell on the 9th, I thought it would make a great 10 on 10 post.  Some of the best wedding blogs and vendors showcased their brands and talents, and I enjoyed eating, dancing, drinking, and chatting with all the brilliant and talented people that attended.  I will definitely be returning next year!
