I know I always say this, but I just love my clients!  With each engagement session i do, I enjoy getting to know my clients better and have so much fun laughing with them throughout our shoot. It is so important to click (no pun intended!) with your clients because you are documenting something very special to them, and it always puts them at ease when they can let their guard down and just be themselves. I have been very lucky with getting clients that i REALLY enjoy! Chris and Clarissa are no exception!  As childhood family friends, they have had the advantage of knowing each other and their families for a very long time.  Clarissa's brother and Chris were great friends, and I can picture Clarissa as the little sister who always wanted to be a part of their fun....well, as the years went on and their interests changed, guess what happened???!!! They fell in love!!!  We had a blast in Pasadena at City Hall and the surrounding area shooting their engagement session! Thanks for the great time, and I can't wait until your wedding in August!

AWESOME !!!!!! These pictures capture the the very essence of the love you both share with each other. I can see the strength and confidence in Chris and the love he has for Clarissa. Frame 2 is amazing, it captures the embrace of a bride who is deply in love with her husband. This picture should go on their mantle. See you in August.

Wow!!! Great pictures... I can see the love you both have for each other... and it is brought out in your sincere visions of each other! All the pictures are great... but my special picks are 3,4, and 5. Your love is evident and very much visual. We will enjoy the fullness of this splendor in August.

Chris only you can get Clarissa to beam so brightly with a single glance. I am so blessed to be able to call Clarissa a friend. Now that feeling has doubled as God has called you two together. Just one question...will you do photos again when you have your "first" kid???? CAN'T WAIT!

Love you two,
Tia Crystal

How am I going to choose??? That is the common question I have been getting at my order sessions with my portrait clients....What should I order?  Where am I going to hang these?  I need help!!!! I absolutely love meeting with my clients for their order session.  We sit down, watch their children's amazing slideshow and relive the fun from our photo session!  Then we talk about their needs for reprints and how they are going to display their images. Here are some display options that I design for my clients before I meet with them to give them ideas of how to  display their images, whether they are canvas prints or framed collages.... The Simple Style Canvas Gallery: The Clean & Classic Framed Gallery: The Mix & Match Framed Gallery: OR....many of my clients are just LOVING this storyboard canvas.  If they are having a hard time deciding on the images because they love so many of them, I suggest this: Happy Thursday!

One of the highest compliments for me is when a past wedding client comes back to me to document their next journey in life...starting a family. Katie and Chris got married 5 years ago. I just loved their wedding day, and their family and friends were so sweet and welcoming to me. I am honored to begin the documentation of this journey. Katie and Chris will be welcoming baby molly in the next couple of months, so stay tuned for some really beautiful newborn portraits with mommy and daddy!

what can i say....look at these beautiful images captured for the Giuliano family....kik, vince, christopher, joey, and graciella.  Love their ability to just be themselves and have fun in front of the camera.  I hope you enjoy these images as much as I have! this is one of those blessed mistakes when you are testing out your settings...honestly, this image happened purely by mistake and I absolutely LOVE it...might be one of my fav's:
