Flying to Catalina for lunch with Joani & Marcel

Just a few weeks ago we did the wedding video and photography for Joani and Marcel's Marina del Rey wedding at the Ritz-Carlton. Today, another highlight with the newlyweds--a ride on Marcel Air for lunch at the Catalina Island "airport in the sky."
Marcel, a commercial pilot, has a small plane for 4 that he likes to take out to fun locations, for views that you never see on Southwest or Delta! Check out the video for a sample! And thanks again Joani and Marcel.

Engagement Photos Los Angeles | Laguna Beach Engagement Photos

When Collette called about Los Angeles engagement photos, she mentioned that she'd love to get shots of her and future groom Rich with their bulldog, Boddington.
We usually do our engagement photos in Manhattan Beach, Redondo Beach or Palos Verdes, but we were thrilled about the possibilities--how often do you see romantic engagement photos with a dog in the middle of the couple?


In Los Angeles, both Laguna Beach and Huntington Beach have dog-friendly beaches, allowing them to run free, (with leashes) during the winter months, so we asked Collette to meet us in Laguna. Easily the prettiest beach in Southern California, we wondered why we hadn't gone to Laguna to shoot engagement photos before? It's truly paradise by the sea--and having a great-looking couple (and a good sport of a pooch) to photograph didn't hurt either.



Thanks Collette and Richard for making the trek--and good look with the 8/21 wedding in Seattle!
