grace and bryce, engagement, los angeles, ca

jen rau — Wed, 03 Dec 2008 17:18:54 +0000

i think i might be an honorary trojan at this point. i have done sooooooo many usc weddings at this point that i can sing the songs and have the hand gestures down. only bryce is a trojan but usc was a great backdrop for grace and bryce’s shoot a few weeks ago. though we never made it tommy trojan, we found lots of good spots and had so much fun.

sarah and eric, engagement

dear sarah was fox’s babysitter for years! so it was my absolute pleasure to do an engagement shoot for these two lovebirds. it was an all day adventure at some of my favorite local spots. the only sour note of the day was that we had bribed eric with strawberry shortcake from his favorite lunch spot and sadly arrived to find the restaurant closed on mondays for lunch! i’ll definately have to have you two over and show off my kitchen skills ESPECIALLY in the area of dessert to make up for it.

regardless of our dessert disaster, eric and sarah brought so much of themselves to the shoot. it was one of those days where i felt lucky that my work felt so much like play. here are my faves.

sylvia and dongmin engagement

i met sylvia and dongmin only a few weeks ago and i think i can safely say it was chemistry at first meeting! we just got eachother’s style and i knew we would be a great match! they had as many great ideas as i did for their downtown shoot and brought 100% of themselves to our shoot. sylvia and dongmin went over and above with their wonderfully styled outfits and props. lets not forget the fabulous yogi who brought his own game in these shots!

sylvia and dongmin are having two weddings, one here at my personal fave cafe pinot and the other in singapore. i am blogging a ton of faves here so sylvia’s family back home can feel apart of her L.A. festivities. they are flying home on saturday so i worked to get these up on the blog before i left for maui.

yogi is a sweetie BUT this image fully conveys his protectiveness. thanks yogi for letting me get closer to your peeps. i think we are friends now.

this whole shoot rocked my world but i think this is my very favorite.

dongmin! love this one!

there is something so sexy about this one! love!

another smoldering one!

another of my very top faves

this is good wind!

caroline and sam engagement

caroline and sam are getting married at the beach club in october. caroline scheduled an impromptu engagement session a few weeks ago and i was so excited to finally get to meet sam. their big day will be filled with sand and sea so we decided to do some street shooting for the engagement. we had a lot of fun roaming the streets and canals of venice and got some great stuff.
