Pasadena Engagement Session // Tran & Andrew

For Tran and Andrew's engagement session we hit the gritty streets of Old Town Pasadena.  Okay, maybe not quite gritty... maybe more like Tran and Andrew themselves - fashionable and fun!  A great recipe for an amazing afternoon might go something like this: add two parts coffee, throw in a dash of street art, stir in a pinch of grand, historic architecture, and then, finally, add in a beautiful, fun couple and blend!

Thank you, Tran and Andrew!  I had an amazing time with you!

Old Town Pasadena Engagement Session

A sneak peek from Tran and Andrew's FUN engagement session yesterday in Old Town Pasadena.  Strolling along Colorado Blvd, sipping coffee at Intelligentsia, taking in some cool street art... it was a great afternoon!  Can't wait for Tran and Andrew's Skirball Center wedding in April!

Michelle & Andrew // Westin Pasadena Wedding

We had an amazing day at Michelle and Andrew's beautiful fall wedding at the First Congressional Church in Pasadena, historic Pasadena City Hall, and the Westin Pasadena.  I've had the honor of photographing many, many weddings over the past several years.  I'm always amazed at how different each wedding is... how each has its own personality and flow.  But as different and as unique each wedding is, I've learned there is a common thread that makes weddings memorable and special to me, and I think to everyone that is present.  It has nothing to do with the size of the wedding or the size of the budget.  These are weddings where the bride and groom seem to have made an unspoken commitment to enjoy every moment of the day, to not let wedding day jitters and stress get the best of them, and to savor the presence of their family and friends.  This was Michelle and Andrew's wedding to a T.  I still can't help smiling, laughing and getting a big warm-fuzzy when looking at their photos!   

And if you haven't seen it yet, link HERE for a fun slideshow from the wedding.

Congratulations, Michelle and Andrew!
