I was so excited when my friends Regina and Aaron asked me to photograph their 1st Year Anniversary Celebration.  They got married last year on 06-07-08 (you know, 6,7,8?) on Catalina in an intimate little ceremony (it was just them – yup, they eloped!). For their 1 year anniversary, they’re going big and celebrating with family and friends at a cool venue in Long Beach. I just can’t wait to shoot this one!

You might remember Regina and Aaron from their holiday session back in December (how could anyone forget Aaron in a tutu?).  These guys are uber cool and always come up with creative and fun ideas for just about everything they do. For their “engagement” session, they decided to go glam and do their own version of Breakfast at Tiffany’s. We had such a blast pounding the pavement in Long Beach and finding little pockets of late afternoon light.

Thanks for an amazing session guys!  So looking forward to next month.  Milan, an extra special thanks to you.  You rocked it too, girlie!

We talked our way into this cool little restaurant:

Aaron is a professional dancer/actor and Regina is a former model.  They definitely know how to work the camera:

Suh-weet!

My awesome assistant, Milan, got this gorgeous shot.  Score!

The “signature” look:

We found this alley that had the most amazing light.  It was like being in an outdoor soft box.  Incredible!

Love the fun in this image:
