Fullerton Engagement Photography - { Dana & Ryan : Engaged! }

Dana and Ryan are awesome and we are so excited to be shooting their wedding later this year. Dana is a serious planner like I am, and I so love it! When we met up to chat about her wedding photography she came fully prepared with her sweet binder, packed full of everything fun and exciting : color swatches, pictures of the location, the whole shebang! But I have to say, the best part of the meeting was that she knew she wanted us to capture her day right off the bat, and exactly where she wanted her engagement photos taken – my kinda girl! ;)

We met up with them a couple weeks ago and hiked up in the Fullerton hills for their engagement pictures, and Dana had some serious style and worked it out on that warm day….and as for me…I was a hot mess. Being a 7 ½ month pregnant chick and tackling those hills was no easy feat, but for Dana and Ryan – I was more than willing to do what it took to get exactly what they had in mind! ;)

Dana & Ryan – We had lots of fun with you guys and cant wait for your big day. I just love your excitement and I know everything will turn out flawlessly! And thank you so so much for the ADORABLE baby gifts, we absolutly LOVE them!! :)

Lancaster Boudoir Photography - { Samantha : Love is Sexy }

I met Sam last summer when we went to Vegas for my cousin Sabrina’s bachelorette party. Hanging out with her was defiantly one of the highlights of the trip. As you can see in the pictures below, she has such a fun, and vibrant personality. I remember lying in bed after a long night of dancing - laughing together for a good hour or so after she introduced me to my favorite YouTube video ever – playing it over and over again. But to make a long story short , Sam = an insane amount of fun!! So when she contacted me about shooting some boudoir photos to give to her hubby as a wedding gift, I was SOOOO excited!!!

I drove out to Lancaster to Sam’s beautiful home and got to hang out with some of her best friends (including my beautiful cousin Jen),and the super fab hair & make up artist Chelsea Mulvey (who did an amazing job getting Sam all dolled up with these fun & sexy looks!) . There was fun music, champagne flowin' , and shots going around with the ladies….it was just an all around good time! Just how I LOVE my boudoir sessions to go!! :)

Okay so I am so sure you are ready for the pictures, but I just want to say one last thing first….I am so so sooo excited with the way these pictures came out , and would LOVE to hear what you think of them in the comment section below!.
