Yanadine and Vee | Wedding from the Maya Hotel | Long Beach, CA

It's a new year, I know it's already April, but it's a new season and first up for 2012 is Yanadine and Vee's wedding from the Maya Hotel in Long Beach, CA. I love getting out of town and shooting in new places from time to time, and this wedding was no exception. Tons of great moments, amazing light and color, and a fantastic group of people all created a perfect environment for some great photography. Enjoy my favorites from the day.

Brianna and Garrett | Abandoned Ranch Engagement Session | Porterville, CA

When Brianna suggested shooting on an old, abandoned dairy that had been in her family for over 100 years, I jumped at the opportunity. I love shooting in new places - especially places that have a connection to my clients. She told me she was worried that there wouldn't be anything good out there, but she didn't need to be. There's so much rich texture and history at locations like this, it's a paradise for a photographer. Enjoy!
