Los Angeles Wedding Photography - { Katie and David : Married ! }

Katie and David had a beautiful ceremony that was focused on them as a couple in Gods big plan for them - it truly touched my heart. Even though I don't really know David and Katie too well, you can tell that God has really brought them together to do great things, and I'm sure they have an amazing future to look forward to together.

This was my first wedding that I second shot (....well the first time I have been able to second shoot). And it was awesome. But any time with Mathieu Photography is generally an awesome experience, but its extra great when I can hang out when they are doing what they do - and learn in the process.

















Every one, be sure to head on over to their beautiful post of this amazing wedding.

Matt and Molly, I cant thank you enough for letting me tag along and pick up some tips along the way. You guys are the best!

Gift Certificate Poll!

Photographers, I would love to hear (in the comment section below) how you use gift certificates as promo tools - and other ways you have used them. Thanks to every one who has taken the poll and given me their recommendations! :)

La Mirada Portrait Photography - { Eva : Head shots ! }

So I just wrote this long heartfelt blog about 2008 and my appreciation for all who have supported me this year...and uploaded our Christmas card and all that fun jazz.....then my internet went down, and some how it completely disappeared. Major bummer! Hopefully I will get hit by the same inspiration and I can rewrite it all soon.... but in the mean time,I have a quick preview of a few head shots to share!

Eva and I went to high school together. She recently contacted me about snapping some photos of her for a few sample head shots, of course I was very happy to do so!
It was really nice to walk around the park next to our old High School and catch up .Eva was much more into a serious sassy look than the big cheesy smiles I usually get out of people....but I can totally roll with that too, and loved changing it up a bit.
So here are just a few images from our mini-session before I head out the door.......
