To kick off the unofficial start to summer, here are photographs from Alice and Ben's engagement session. We took them to Santa Monica Pier for a little bit of beachy fun and headed over to the promenade thereafter. As you browse through, you might think "What? No carnie pics?" No, these guys are too cool for that. Instead, we took our party underneath! Our own adventure was destined to be atop on the risers. In our opinion, this was definitely better than a ride around the ferris wheel. And for your information... No animals or clients were hurt in the making of this production. Enjoy the memories!

A few years ago Robert and I co-hosted a New Year's Eve party with my sister Michelle and her husband Mark. Mark's brothers Pete and Erik were in town, and they joined us for the party. Erik spent most of the night carrying around an enormous foot tall champagne glass. LOL. Apparently this caught my sister Tina's attention and shortly after the party they started dating. Dating wasn't always easy for Tina and Erik as Erik in the Air Force. Over the past few years Tina has gone to visit him in Louisiana and Texas and Erik has come to visit her in CA. I'm sure the visits always seemed too short and the times he was away seemed too long. Through Skype, over the phone movie dates, and Facebook they made it work. And on May 11th, another Tincopa sister married another Boets brother.

Here are a sneak peek of their wedding at the Aquarium of Pacific:

Isabella,

Soon your world will become a whole lot bigger. You'll need to find your way around here, but don't worry, you have a loving family waiting for your arrival. Soon you will meet your parents for the first time! And you will be loved, embraced, coddled, pampered... forever!

Mom and Dad don't like taking pictures, but we don't know why because they are so beautiful and handsome.

Will you be as beautiful as Mommy?

Robert and I like to keep our skills sharp by attending photoshoots and workshops to learn from other photographers, practice new techniques, and keep up with current trends in the photography industry.  A few weeks ago we had the honor of leading the SoCal Photog Shootout for the Three Year Anniversary event!  

We had a wonderful time leading and learning from other photographers and working with the stunningly beautiful Charise.

Thank you Charise for being so patient and fabulous all afternoon- even braving the cold windy weather. You are gorgeous, and we hope you enjoy the photos!

A big thank you to everyone involved in making this event possible. We have a special shout-out to all of you below :)

Last summer we had the honor in participating in a wedding vendor challenge for Best Wedding Sites.  The challenge was to create and style a Bridal Shower using the colors Yellow and Blue. 
The team consisted of Miriam of Miriam Corona Events, Samantha of Paper Mints, florals and linens from Cristina of Posh Peony Event Design, and the adorable sweets from Eileen at Cucamonga Cakery. Our team had tons of fun running with the challenge and our design even made the cover of the September Issue of Best Wedding Sites Magazine

Since I know many of our brides are currently working on the themes and floral designs for their summer weddings, I thought we would post a little inspiration on this beautiful summer like day in February here in SoCal. This post may also be helpful to all you MOHs (Maid of Honors) out there looking for inspiration for that Bridal Shower you will be hosting soon.

To read more about the details and design of this shoot, check out the feature article here:
