Engagement Shoot

So the scout shoot that was posted before was for this engagement shoot that was just done. And all I can say is how much fun Tanya & Eric were on their shoot.  Best way to describe it is young love, or almost high school butterflies during the shoot I say that because of the way they both of them were nervous kinda tense but in the long run we had a fun shoot.  It was majorly windy out there though but the semi posed fun and photos came out amazing. 
















Tanya has been complimented on looking like a model and Eric a male model.  A beautiful couple that I had the privilege to photograph.

First off we started out at the red phone booths in Pasadena, Ca.

Then we had a little fun with that area kinda played musical benches to get the perfect light. 

 

Along with a little fun with some sign placement which was fun. 

 But I feel the best part of the phone booth shoot was the cute sarcasm that they had between each other along with their back story on the sarcasm.

The magazine images I feel were a great representation of two personality's coming together.  Then with each other peaking over each others shoulders showing interest in the two personality's









As the photo shoot progressed we went to city hall in Pasadena, Ca. as well our first stop was the perfect set of stairs lighting was perfect the curvature of the stair case. . . couldn't have ask for a better stair case the photos speak for them self. 

We did however run into another couple that just got married they did run into my shoot but I gave them the courtesy of shooting.  But it gave Eric & Tanya an idea of what to expect.









Second location in city hall was the little benches in the little garden area.  We had played on each others ideas to do different photos one fun idea came from my daughters love for pixar movies.  So we did a little up scene and just the fun level of the clients is what brought the images them self together.

Next we're off to the Colorado bridge a.k.a. "Suicide Bridge" Pasadena, Ca.  Man O Man what a beautiful bridge.  By this time we were coming up on sunset fast so I had gotten my lighting down and it was time to shoot.  Started by having Eric use a Minolta film camera to take photos of Tanya.

The energy of fun and love between the two was electrifying. 






Joking, playing just having fun while I photograph them. 



















 





The way Eric & Tanya had fun with the situations are the reason the photographs came out so great.




I am looking forward to photographing their wedding and just running with it and doing what I do.  Doing what it takes to get the prefect photo.

Special Thank You to Eric & Tanya
