Manhattan Beach :: Family Portraits

After the engagement session earlier in Laguna Beach, it was time to head back to the South Bay for an afternoon portrait shoot in Manhattan Beach. On the way back you could see where the dense, thick cloud of smoke lay across the sky. It felt like we were driving into another dimension! By the time we arrived for the shoot, it had mostly cleared up and we had some gorgeous late afternoon sunlight at our disposal. Check out some of our favorite pics from the session!

Laguna Beach Engagement Session

Sunday morning we had the opportunity to head out of the smoke-filled South Bay and down to some clean, fresh air in Laguna Beach for an engagement session. These two are tying the knot in February at The Hacienda in Santa Ana. We had a great time cruising the streets of downtown Laguna Beach with you guys and are looking forward to your wedding!

Manhattan Beach baby portraits

Is it still summer? Did I miss winter? What's happening? It was 85 degrees in Manhattan Beach today....in NOVEMBER! Only in California huh? Well anyways, we took advantage of the beautiful weather and headed down to the beach for a baby portrait session for the (other) Ernster family. Little Andrew is 8 months old, and he is adorable! Don't take my word for it, just take a look at these pics.....























Thanks guys for getting down and dirty with us....the pictures were totally worth it!

Chance Barber: 6 months

Last weekend we headed over to Sandy's sisters hours take take 6 month pics of her baby boy Chance. 6 months is such a great time for pictures because their personalities start to show, and they are more aware of what is going on around them. Plus they smile a LOT, which is great for pictures!

Muckenthaler Mansion Wedding

Saturday we had an amazing wedding at the Muckenthaler Mansion in Fullerton. These two were so much fun to hang out with and I had such a great time at their wedding. The bride looked absolutely gorgeous and had an old-Hollywood-glamour look going on which fits her perfectly! These guys were so happy to be married and you could tell they were genuinely in love because it radiated from them all night. Here are a few of our favorites from the day....











I have an obsession with birdcage veils....they are so awesome!










Ever try squatting on a hill in high heels? Apparently neither has this bride! But the groom was there to catch her!




















Thank you guys for having us their to capture your day...were were honored to be there!
