Palos Verdes Wedding | Karen & Saul | La Venta | 7/28/07

Karen and Saul--Come on Down!!!
Several years ago Karen got her big moment on TV's classic "The Price is Right," wearing one of those wacky "I Love Bob Barker," T-shirts to get the now attention of the now retired, legendary TV host. Afterwards, she went out to dinner at Koo Koo Roo, and struck up a conversation with Saul, who asked about the shirt.
One thing led to another, and four years later, Karen and Saul tied the knot, on July 28, 2007, at the stunning La Venta Inn, in Palos Verdes.
Karen held onto her "Price is Right" name-tag for her grand entrance--and the couple made their way in to lots of applause and the "Price," theme song. Now she's going to have her name-tag framed--along with some of these shots from their Palos Verdes La Venta wedding as well!

Hermosa Beach Engagement Photos

We met with Heather and Dave on Monterey and Pier Avenues, right around the corner from Becker Surf. This was the exact location where they met several months ago and started talking. One thing led to another, and the next thing they knew, they were engaged to be married, with a wedding set for next May, near Austin, Texas.
Sunday was Heather and Dave's official engagement photo session shoot with Graham and Graham Photography, and we opted for a sunset shoot. It was slightly foggy, and not exactly swimming in color, but the light was subtle and wonderful, and we loved every minute of it.
We usually do our E-sessions in Manhattan Beach, under and near the Pier, but loved the urban setting of rollicking Pier Plaza, and the soft light in the sand. We just may do all of our Los Angeles Wedding engagement sessions in Hermosa from now on!

Congrats guys!

Manhattan Beach Engagement Photos

It was a supposedly quiet Sunday evening when we met with Adriana and Enoc at the Manhattan Beach Pier, for classic sunset shots. But at 8 p.m., the beach was packed! Kids were still frolicking in the waves, and lifeguards were still on duty. We promised the couple--set to tie the knot with a Los Angeles Wedding on 9/1--a quiet, secluded place. The idea was that the Manhattan Beach would be all theirs. Well, it was so crowded, we couldn't make it happen. But thanks to Photoshop, it looks like we did!

Palos Verdes Bride

Here's another of our favorite shots from the Ruth and Shane wedding. This is moments before the pair met at the altar, at the beautiful Neighborhood Church in Palos Verdes, in one of the reception rooms overlooking the Pacific Ocean. Love that natural light--and those flowers!
