Joshua & Autumn, also known as World Travelers, Food Connoisseurs, Movie Go-ers, Lover of all things in nature - are tying the knot in November and we simply wait to capture their most special day yet. Being around their love is truly so inspiring, and we are lucky enough to capture them as they are, so happy and so fully of love. Our couple chose Los Angeles City Hall as their PreWedding Session location and we honestly believe that this was the perfect place for these two because just like them this venue is classy and elegant in every way.
Do you believe in fate? Romel & Lillian first met as teenagers, and had their first date then too. But it wasn’t until many years later, where they saw each other again and decided to give it another try. Fate was on their side because these two have been happier than ever, finding each other. In each other, they have a best friend and soulmate. When you see these two together, all you can think is “Can I have that too?”. We truly can not wait until their big day later this month in Los Angeles. Stay tuned for all the magic!
Imagine meeting your soulmate when you’re in elementary school, and not knowing it until your early twenties. That is exactly the beautiful story between Hovo & Ani. Since our bride to be is born on Halloween and because their first date took place a week prior, they had a memorable time celebrating at historic Queen Mary’s themed event. There is so much to love about this couple, but our favorite thing is definitely their easy breezy chemistry. We simply can’t wait until their big day comes at the end of Summer, seeing them announced as husband & wife will be so very special!
When it comes to love, when you know, you know. After these lovers had their first date at a local LA restaurant, after they officially met through mutual friends, where they talked until late into the night, they knew they had something special. When it came time to choose their engagement session location, bride to be Argineh chose her alma mater, USC, and it was just the perfect place for these two, with the gorgeous southern California trees and architecture surrounding the entire campus, we were lucky enough to have so much beauty to capture. They spent about a year planning their dream wedding, and we simply can’t wait to see how it will all turn out later this month, so stay tuned!
We all know the saying that goes “everything happens for a reason”, and for Orlando & Marina, there was a reason why they met the way they did, maybe it was fate or maybe it wasn’t - all we know is it definitely wasn’t an accident. When he first met her, it was at a designer boutique where she worked. She told a white lie and told him that she was in a relationship. Years went by, and they met again. It was then that Orlando found out Marina was actually single this whole time. So this time, there was nothing that could hold these two back from being together. After their first date, they both knew - what they found in each other, was greater than anything they could have imagined.
When Garen & Eunicia were trying to figure out where to do their session, they couldn’t help but choose a location that meant so much to them. When these lovers first met, they were part of a bridal party together and they spent a lot of that day in Old Town Pasadena. So of course, it was an easy choice for them. The passion these two have have for one another, is like magic. The way he cares for her, and the way she looks at him, so much love it explodes through the lens! We simply can’t wait for their upcoming wedding in July.
We had so much fun capturing these lovebirds. The most important thing to have for your session is chemistry, and Vahan & Evelyn were so absolutely sweet together. She chose a vibrant blue for one of her gowns, and a softer blue with a hint of green for her second look. We can’t wait to capture their best day ever in July!
These sweet lovebirds chose one of LA’s finest French estates for their PreWedding Session. The venue itself, is so beautiful, but with these two together, it shines. Our bride to be looked stunning in her red gown, and our groom to be looked dapper in his navy suit. A pop of color always adds a special touch to your images. We are so excited for their upcoming June wedding at JW Marriott in Los Angeles, and to see what he design team created for their special day.
A love story eight years in the making, for our sweet Robert & Victoria. They fell head over heels for each other, almost immediately after they met. Their relationship became long distance a month after their first date, but they wouldn’t change that part at all, because they got to know each other and fell deeper in love through their daily video chats. Choosing Hollywood’s Houdini Estate was perfect for this classy couple, with so many stunning vignettes for their portraits, we had so much fun taking advantage of the historic estate’s beauty. This stylish pair, so in love, tie the knot in June and we can not wait to capture every single moment.
The most important decision you ever make, is when you choose the one you want to spend your life with. This is the person who will be there for you through thick and thin, in all the good and tough times, the one you grow old with. When you find this person, we hope that you are as happy as these two lovebirds are. Just being around Areg & Lusine’s energy makes us so happy, and spending the way with them in Malibu for their PreWedding Session, was simply a blast. These lovers have known each other for more than ten years, he is best friends with her brother. How sweet is that? You may know someone for years and not even know you’ve found your soulmate until one day…everything makes sense. We can’t wait to capture their best day ever, watch these two say “I Do” at Hummingbird Nest Ranch this month.
Imagine seeing the love of your life, four years before you officially met, without even knowing it. That is exactly what happened to Zareh & Ileen. They sat inches from each other during a mock trail they both attended for their best friends, and don’t even remember each other. Sparks flew as soon as they met, and obviously it hasn’t stopped because these two are pure romance with each together. The way he looks at her, and she looks at him - we love watching them together. For their session, we went to Beverly Hills and shot at the very first luxury estate ever built in the city. With it’s six acres of beauty, it was quintessential.
These two lovers have a fire that is undoubtedly special. Spending the day with Shant & Sune, was such a blast, seeing the way they look at each other and most importantly how they love each other, was something out of a story book. They have so much fun together, no matter what they are doing, and it really shows! Sune looked stunning in her three gowns, and we simply can’t get enough of these images because each & every one reminds us of the magic they share.
Jameson & Stephanie chose the fascinating Houdini Estate for their session location, and it suited them all too well. Built in the early 1900s, the secluded estate has so many unique traits, from the old caves, hidden tunnels, terraced gardens, and so much more. This gorgeous pair are so effortless together and we can’t help but be deeply captivated by with their images.
From a Summer proposal, to a Fall engagement session, and an upcoming Winter wedding. These lovers are so sweet together and full of so much joy. What we cherish most is the fact that you can surely see their love for one another shine through with each image captured. Choosing the historic Los Angeles Arboretum as their backdrop, Derik & Dalar gracefully sparkled everywhere we went. Importantly, they had a blast through it all!
Quietly nestled in the heart of wine country, Calamigos Ranch is one of Malibu’s best kept hideaways. A beautiful place where romance meets nature, and your love for the outdoors can be immersed. Mike & Gayane chose the perfect location for their PreWedding Session because it truly harmonized so well with who they are as couple, nature loving romantics!
These high school sweethearts are such a gorgeous pair who are excited as ever to start their new journey as husband & wife. When you look at these two together, you can just feel the devotion and passion they have for each other. Being able to capture love stories like this, is the reason why we cherish doing what we do, so much.
These lovers have such a special story, and we are so lucky to be a part of it. We had the most beautiful day in Santa Barbara with Karla & Chris. Being able to see the places in the area that meant so much to them and their love, made these captures that much more special. True love does exist, and these two are the epitome of just that. We can’t wait for their upcoming wedding next month at Four Seasons Biltmore Santa Barbara, a venue dear to them in many ways. The day they say “I Do” will be exactly 8 years since their first date.
Absolutely blown away by these two! Angela & Hovik are pure love together, so classy and effortless. Loved every part of their session, and it was so hard to choose our favorite images to showcase. Houdini Estate was the perfect location for these sultry lovers, we truly felt like we were in the middle of a fashion editoral shoot…with every shot. You’re just going to have to take a look for yourself.
Sometimes the person you are looking for is standing right in front of you, and you just don't know it until the time is right. Sharis & Arvin were in the same group of friends for over eight years, yet they managed to not say one word to each other until years later. We’re happy they did because these two make such a beautiful pair, they’re perfect for one another. Just take a glimpse into their PreWedding Session and see for yourself.
A California day with perfect weather at the beautiful San Gabriel Mission. Where Spanish influence is all around with tall narrow windows and mission bells, it is hard not to love every inch of this place. It's difficult to believe this place was built in 1812, the history of California missions truly amaze us.
