Life brings people together in mysterious ways, how Stephanie and JC found me was a total surprise! Stephanie and JC are so fun to shoot; they have so much chemistry that my shutter click was almost non-stop! While we were brainstorming on places to shoot, we decided to start with Viceroy hotel in Santa Monica, such contemporary, colorful and fun place to shoot !
Viceroy Hotel
1819 Ocean Avenue
Santa Monica, CA 90401
JC told me that he’s never been in front of a professional camera before. Really? I think he did really well !
We then move our way to the beach for some beach photos ! Love the Southern California sun !
I adore Stephanie’s green dress !
Stephanie, you’re fabulous !

Brian and Jackie knew they wanted to do their engagement photos at Japanese Garden in California State University at Long Beach the minute we discussed engagement photography.
This place holds so much sentimental value to the two of them! When Brian has to work late, Jackie would go out of her way, and go to California State University at Long Beach to spend some time with Brian, so the Japanese garden becomes a frequent visited spot for the two of them.
I absolutely love this photo ! It reminds me of a movie promotion poster of a love story !
This photo makes me giggle every time I see it, so full of love !
Since right now is Canon lens rebate time, I bought a 85 mm1.2L lens, and absolutely love it ! The bokeh is so creamy !
Another location that Brian and Jackie hangs out a lot is Dana Point Beach, this beach is very interesting, it’s not a sand beach, it’s a rock beach !
Brian couldn’t resist… was it a bear tickle? or is it Jackie ?
This photo below is inspired by my good friend Caroline Tran !
Enjoy,

Greg and Helen met each other on the campus of UCLA, so when it comes time for their engagement photos, they knew, they want to have it in University of California at Los Angeles.
It always amazes me how love works. Greg and Helen chose different career paths, and thus went through different training and were geographically separated. And when they were finally within commuting distance, they got back in touch. Helen is the sweetest and Greg is full of fun, the two together makes the perfect combination.
Helen knew that I’m a big cupcake fan, and brought red velvet cupcakes to the engagement session! I gasped when I saw the cupcakes, it tasted SOOOoo good ! I asked Helen what shop did she get the cupcakes from, she surprised me and said ” oh, I made it.” My eyes widened! “Are you serious?” I’m still trying to convince myself that something this good can come out of a residential oven ! ( well, it definitely can’t come out of my oven… doesn’t matter how hard I try)
I wish I have photos to show you how awesome Helen’s baking skills are, but…. um… my stomach acted before my brain, they were all gone before I remember that I wanted to take photos of them >_< I’m so kicking myself right now….
There is something about the picture below that I just love. It made me feel that Helen is cherished and protected.
quick change of clothes! I’m loving Helen’s outfit !

I believe in God, I believe God has someone in mind for us, and when the time is right, he’ll reveal the person to us.
Before I met my husband, I asked people that are married, how do you know that you have found the one? And they would tell me, ” when you meet him, you would know.” That didn’t make any sense to me at the time, but their words came to mind when I finally met the right guy, Joe. Jennifer and Jasen lives really close to each other, however, it wasn’t until a couple of years ago that God introduced them to each other through their siblings. Seeing Jennifer and Jasen together reminded me of that story.
One of my favorite shots of Jennifer !
I love sunlight and trees ! Makes the perfect backdrop!
Enjoy,
