A few images from Lori & Eric's Engagement photoshoot at Laguna Beach, California

A Life Photographic: Chelsey's Maternity Portrature

Chelsey is a self assured mom-to-be that decided to have a pregnacy photoshoot. At first she was apprehensive about 2 photographers taking images of her. Sensing this, I decided to take care of the set up and finding great locations and lighting around her house and Kristi did the primary photography. She warmed up halfway to the Photography Session and still allowed me take some stunning images during the session. Our combined and complementary styles of photography, composition and creativity allows us to create images from a photoshoot that are both unique and timeless. I myself beleive that a pregnant woman is one of the most beautiful things to behold and this is an excellent example that. Chelsey's confidence and beauty is inspiring.

A Life Photographic: A Summer Wedding at Falkner Winery

Details, details... When we shoot weddings we love to capture all the beautiful details that make your your day unique to you. Only a day after, the flowers are wilting, the room has been broken down, the food is eaten, clothes are wrinkled, shoes are dirty...you get the idea. That's exactly why at any wedding you'll see us taking the time to get beautiful shots of your flowers, rings, decorations, and even your shoes. These are things you'll love to look at in the future, they are personal and intimate...they complete the story of your day...and they look great in your wedding album. Here are a few examples from a recent wedding we did in Temecula. We'll post more from this great couple later,..but for now..a few of the details.

Leah & Brian's Mandalay Resort Wedding September 8th 2007

Here are few images from last weekend's wedding. Brain and Leah, The couple were married at the beachfront of the hotel hosting the couples reception. It was a gorgeous day and a perfect wedding venue for this young couple. Spending a little time with the groom before the Wedding Ceremony has always been a mixed bag, but not this time. This time was different and unusual. The groom was perfectly calm and composed, at peace. When the bride was walking down the isle, I was focused on capturing the groom's expression. Looking at my viewfinder, I understood why...I held my breath and paused then I released the shutter.

A Life Photographic Wedding Photography in Orange County : Adrian and Denise's Engagement Shoot

Adrian and Denise's Catalina Island Engagement Photoshoot went without a Hitch..Hah!. Okay, Is this considered a Destination shoot?
Denise, the Bride-to-be wanted to go back to where they had their First Date. Catalina Island is a very romantic engagement shoot destination, abound with Medditereanean Style Architecture in a coastal setting and just an hour boat ride away. Adrian and Denise are surely one of those couples that are really fun to photograph. They are just really into each other. Kristi and I really work well as a photographic team. Beside reading each others mind (we do this telephathicly), we also have a rhythm in the way we work. While one of us is shooting the clent, the other is already scouting locations and setting/planning the next set of images. Result, a great broad range of images. Here are few images from that Engagement shoot.
Neil and Kristi Rosales of A Life Photographic will provide the Wedding Photography for the couple at in the near future and an update will surely follow. The Ceremony will be held at Newport Beach, California followed by The Reception at Balboa Penninsula.
