Amber and Ed's Trash The Dress Session

Another trash the dress session, this time with Amber and Ed! Amber and Ed who were married at Oak Meadows in Temecula wanted to do a Trash the Dress session at Lo Jolla Beach. Now for those of you who don't know what Trash the dress is I'll explain. I feel there are two different versions of "Trash the Dress" sessions, there's the Trash the dress session where you go around wearing your dress and take fun beautiful pictures on a different day then your wedding and then there's the "Trashing" the dress session, where you go swimming in a salt water ocean, or lagoon or get mud all over it or even rip it all to shreds.

This session was more of the safer version although they did venture into the ocean and came out sandy and soaking wet. Although the weather wasn't as sunny as we would have liked, it turned out to be a great evening and I had a lot of fun "trashing" the dress and shooting with them. Below are a few of my favorite images from that day and to view a fun slide show please click HERE. Enjoy!

John & Holly's Engagement Session

Meet John & Holly who are getting married June 27th!

I had a great time working and getting to know this fun-loving couple. John and Holly first met each other on a semester at sea cruise about eight years ago! I photographed them by the Hammond trail and Clam beach in Mckinleyville where John proposed to Holly. They will be getting married at Pampline Grove in just a few short weeks and I can't wait to capture that happy day for them.

I just wanted to say Happy belated Mother's day to all those mothers out there! I hope you all had a wonderful weekend, like I did with your family. My 7yr old son Julian and my husband made me breakfast in bed while I played with our youngest son Kian (7 weeks old). We had a fun afternoon together and took a few pics of the boys together below are a few from that day.
