I am utterly swooning over this impeccably styled Provence-inspired wedding shoot,  organized by the amazing Jen Huang at her most recent workshop.  Beautiful couple Jess and Brad just take my breath away.  You might recognize this couple from their hollywood glamour styled engagement shoot - in case you missed it, be sure to take a peek at it here.

I’m headed up to the Bay area for an extended weekend full of weddings, family, and spectacular couples, and then will be popping over to wine country to spend time with wonderful friends and some of the most creative artists in the industry.  Have a beautiful holiday!

These images were shot during a lovely summer afternoon spent with family in our uncle’s garden - one of my very favorite spaces on earth.  Our niece and nephew are quite the horticulturists, astonishing us with their knowledge of branch grafting and cultivation at age six! 

I am so smitten with this styled engagement shoot and its subtle nods to old Hollywood glamour.  Make-up, Styling + Jewelry was provided by Jess, our gorgeous subject - a true talent and triple threat in every sense of the word!  The location - a private estate nestled in the Malibu Canyons - was the site of a recent workshop organized and hosted by my incredible friend Jen Huang, and it couldn’t have been more spectacular.  So much beauty….

This is my wonderful friend and fellow photographer Esther, of Esther Sun Photography (isn’t she absolutely gorg?!). Esther is such a delight and has such a great energy about her that you can’t help but have an amazing time when she’s around!

I’m shooting a wedding with Esther this weekend and another later this summer, and couldn’t be more thrilled!  I feel so endlessly fortunate to be surrounded by such incredible and creative friends. ♥
