Celebrating a milestone
Joshua Style Engagement Shoot
Sometimes you donate to a great cause and you are lucky enough to meet some great people.
I was asked by a long time client, Shari if I would donate a gift certificate to a worthy cause. It’s an event to raise support for the therapy dog teams of Children’s Hospital of Los Angeles. Childrens Hospital Los Angeles Titiana K9 Fund
It’s for a great cause and I jumped at it!
The Gala was held in October last year, and I honestly forgot all about it. Then Laurie called me a couple of months ago and we chatted for a bit. She was wanting engagement photos and we decided on the Prime Desert Woodland Preserve
I met Laurie and Edward at my studio and then off we went to the desert. The corvette was a fun surprise and looked great against the orange sunset. The day was perfect and not windy.
We had so much fun and I would love to do it all over again.

Engagement Portraits
Engagement portraits are always fun sessions, as we get to know the future bride and groom. We were excited to photograph the engagement portraits in a desert setting. The weather was unpredictable, and there was a slight chance of rain. The lighting was ever changing as the clouds moved in and out. We didn’t get any rain our during the session, but we did get some dramatic desert skies. Depending on which way we were facing would determine whether we had blue skies or dark foreboding skies. I loved both the perfect looking desert day as well as the dramatic clouds. The Antelope Valley has, in my opinion, some of the most beautiful skies. The clouds are always different. They can be fluffy, just look like they are sitting on the horizon, or almost “painted” on, almost surreal.The Joshua trees are always a great additional for impact and texture. It went from warm to cold during the session, but Heather and Michael were real troopers.
The results speak for themselves. They have some amazing images to use for their “Save the Date” cards.
