When Maggie and Dave asked about having their engagement photos taken at La Quinta Resort in Palm Springs with the end of our session in the desert, I couldn’t have been more excited. La Quinta Resort is a gorgeous location, and I’ve always been inspired by the simplicity and beauty of the desert. When I […]

Winnie the pooh quotes

I was feeling nostalgic this week as I browsed through Calvin and Davina’s Disneyland Engagement photos. I had taken them a while ago, and then became swamped with work and stored them on a drive, promising to blog them soon.

Sleeping Beauty’s Castle has to be the trickiest place for me to photograph, but if you’re having a Disneyland Engagement, it’s a must.

The only downside, is there’s never enough time to hit everything in one photo session. […]

Disneyland Engagement Photo

I love when people get dressed up for their […]

Disneyland Engagement Photo, Sleeping Beauty Castle

You’ll have to excuse my absence from blogging! You see, a while back I accidentally took on too many Disneyland Engagement Shoots, not knowing how many I could handle. Turns out, it was a little too much. 😉 I was “in the weeds” for a while there. But things are finally getting a little bit […]

Disneyland Hotel Engagement Session

We had a little bit of a mix up when it came to Joy and Eric’s engagement shoot location, but sometimes-mix ups can lead to good things and better places! That’s how I felt when we decided to meet at the Disneyland Hotel instead of our original location. When we arrived, the scenery was gorgeous […]
