Los Angeles Wedding Photographer

Some of you will recognize the last photo here of Miss Maddie from Next Exit Photography marketing materials. She held the photo spot of our portrait business card for almost 3 years!! We recently photographed her in all of her pre-kindergarten glory.

Brenda and her beautiful family met Adi by the Pier for some gorgeous photos.

It occurred to me the other day when I was over at my Uncle’s house for their Passover seder that I had never photographed his beautiful twin daughters (a.k.a. my first cousins). Laurie is a jeweler in New York City (anybody need an engagement ring?) and Valerie lives the rocker life in Los Angeles working for Live Nation (thanks for the tickets to Bruce, Val!) Laurie was in town for the holiday, so Cat and I figured we’d surprise my Uncle and Aunt with a shoot on the train tracks. We tried for something a little more contemporary than that faded old picture of the two of them at 4 years old in ribbons and bows which currently resides above the fireplace.

….Surprise!

I had so much fun shooting Allison and her amazing two year old, Hannah. Allie and I found eachother on Facebook a few months back. We went to the same jr. high and high school and carpooled daily to swim team practice.

Ah, so many memories!

Of course, we just had to do her shoot a stone’s throw away from the pool and Palisades High. I can’t wait to shoot her new baby in a few weeks!!

I shot THREE maternity sessions this week.
The first one was of my beautiful next door neighbor, Erin.
I was actually shooting a speck job for a maternity magazine, so I used my beyond photogenic daughter, Clara, for a couple of the pics. That is Clara’s crib, by the way. Isn’t it cuterific???
