I really enjoy heading to the city because I don’t get the chance to do it often. There’s so much flavor and energy there. It’s great to get away from my suburban life and experience the hustle of urban Los Angeles. On this past occasion, I met up with Vi and Tom at Union Station for their engagement session. Vi and Tom met in medical school and are nothing short of classy. You can tell they’re head over heels for each other, because they can’t look at one another without smiling. They are such good people and I really enjoy hanging out with them. I’m looking forward to your wedding in two months!

I really like their attitude and style here. So casual, yet so cool.

Afterwards, we headed over to the Walt Disney Concert Hall just as the sun was setting.

One of my absolute favorites.

I LOVE this one!

This past Saturday, I went to Downtown LA to shoot an engagement photosession with Maria Diaz and Richard Alonzo. Maria & Richard met 8 years ago when they were both working for the same company. They were just friends at first but their romance didn’t really spark until they went on a trip to Cancún with friends. These two love to travel, and spent 6 months traveling through Europe together. In keeping with their wanderlust, Maria & Richard are getting married later this year in Puerto Vallarta and I can’t wait to shoot that amazing event!

Today, Maria is a restaurant entrepreneur and real estate agent, and Richard is a real estate appraiser. If anyone is in need of their services, shoot me an email and I’ll get you in touch with them. We spent the day shooting around the Financial District of Downtown LA, mostly at the Walt Disney Concert Hall and The Museum of Contemporary Art. We also were able to get rooftop access to a nearby building that Maria’s friend lives in. Thanks again Chris for hooking that up!

At first, they were a bit nervous but that soon melted away and we had a great time. Here are a few of my favorite shots from the day:
