Bella Models "Meg Dana" Accessories!

Okay, so I wanted to plug my friends product line, Meg Dana. Her products are so amazing. I absolutely love her hair accessories for little girls. It is so difficult to find beautiful, quality products like this. Well, I went to Fashion Island the other day and found these darling accessories, which I was estatic about. I didn't care what they cost, I had to have them for my little sweetheart. It didn't dawn on me to look at the tag. When I got home, I couldn't wait to take them out to look at them again. At which time I thought, "Maggie could make this." So, I looked at the label, and guess what???? They are Meg Dana products!!!! No wonder I was flipping over them. Thank you Maggie for making such beautiful pieces of art for our little darlings. Maggie was inspired by her daughter to start this product line. I can't wait to get the tutu's. It's so much fun having a girl, and people like Maggie make it all the more fun. I'm always inspired by clothes and accessories when I take photos, so I thought this was the perfect opportunity to share these wonderful products with you. I hope you enjoy them as much as I do.






Claudia and Ashley E-Session - Riverside

Claudia and Ashley are finally tying the knot. We have known each other for over two years now and they have been planning their wedding for quite some time. Now, the BIG day is getting closer and closer. I look forward to photographing their wedding. We had fun shooting at Ashley's old stomping grounds, UC Riverside. Here are some of my favorites from that day:

Dry Lake - Las Vegas

Models, Rio and Morgan heated the dry lake. These two were amazing to work with! They are so much fun and willing to try anything. This was a photographer's dream to work with models like this. There was absolutely no direction needed. In fact, it was exciting just to see what they would muster up on there own. The images speak for themselves.

Red Rock - Las Vegas

Gorgeous model, Denisse Cisneros rocked the red rock!!! Her natural beauty was easy to capture and the mind-blowing scenery was just the cherry on top of the cake. The challenge to this shoot was the early morning sun (blaring from atop our heads), the freezing cold weather and the strong wind. Denisse was a trooper with not one complaint. That was quite impressive to me, because I was bundled up and screaming. Haha! In the end, the challenging elements ended up working for us rather than against us.

Vegas Baby!!!

Houry and Raul love Vegas! So, it was a no brainer to shoot their engagement session here. On my first day here from attending a photographer's convention, Houry and Raul made the trek down from Los Angeles. We shot in old town Vegas, where it turned into an urban-style photo shoot. I loved working with these two. Not only are they gorgeous, but they really had such a great time in front of the camera. They were uninhibited and quite playful. Here are some of my favorites...
