Matt and Jourdan: Day After

Matt and Jourdan graciously donned their wedding attire (right after celebrating their one year anniversary) and participated in a wild and crazy group 'day after' session. Remember the gorgeous couple, Brian and Stephanie, from last month? These two also came along for an afternoon of shooting at a beautiful home in Rancho Santa Fe.

In addition to being incredible photogenic, Matt and Jourdan had this amazing vibe... you could just feel the love between them emmanating out, making for the most awesome shoot ever! Thanks so much, you two, for partcipating and being so wonderful! Also, thanks again to Jeff for organizing everything!

I had so many incredible pictures that I couldn't narrow it down. ShowIt would be awesome here (hubby: hint hint), but instead you readers will have to deal with a deluge of photos. Trying to make up for my lack of posting lately and all!





I love this picture so much, I just ordered a 16x24 canvas of it!

Brian and Stephanie - Day After

Last Sunday, a group of people from the awesome San Diego PUG got together to shoot some couples at this gorgeous home in Rancho Santa Fe.

Brian and Stephanie graciously volunteered to be the first of our models. These two got married a few months ago - and had no good pictures of the two of them from their wedding. Simply amazing, considering how good looking each was!

A huge thanks to Jeff for organizing this whole event. You are awesome!

The beautiful bride:

Isn't the look that he is giving her just to die for?? It's the look that every girl wants to be on the receiving end of - the mixture of passion and undying love is just palpable.

Her adorable shoes:

Salton Sea - TTD, Part Deux

I finally(!) finished processing the photos from the TTD extravaganza! Here are some more of my favorites:

Yeah yeah I know - took me long enough.

Trash the Dress - Salton Sea

On Saturday, I went to this massive trash the dress session at the Salton Sea. The Salton Sea is both amazing and disgusting. Its smelly and toxic and deserted. The lake itself has no current, with an eerie fog that hangs over it, with no separation between the water and sky.

It was an interesting day - for starters, there were more photographers/cameras there than I have ever seen in one place. Secondly - because I was both a model and a photographer! I spent the entire morning being a model (and doing crazy stuff like balancing on one leg on a crumbling rock in 4 inch heels), trying not to look too ugly or squinty (sdohana has a pic of me! i'm the last one). The 'trying not to look too squinty' was especially hard, as the sun was a level of bright that I rarely see.

At the end of the morning session, I quickly changed and grabbed a few shots at our first location, then joined the caravan to our second location, where I was only a photographer :-) Here are a couple of my favorite shots:
