Adelyne + Pang = engaged!

nobody@vox.com(caroline tran) — Thu, 08 May 2008 12:57:41 -0700

Adelyne and I totally hit it off at our first meeting, and that was no surprise because she was a referral from Elaine. I initially met Adelyne alone and just loved what a beautiful person she is. At our second meet, I met Adelyne & Pang together and was not at all surprised at how beautiful their relationship is. I could immediately see how much they love each other and how they are always watching out for each other.

This first picture really describes their relationship:

I love the mood of this last photo. I'm glad we took some shots even after it had already gotten dark! The night photos gave such a great contrast to the day photos.

Jen + Eugene = married!

nobody@vox.com(caroline tran) — Thu, 08 May 2008 11:23:02 -0700

I have been so behind with this blog. :( We're currently working on some blog updates, so keep an eye out for it. :D

So couple weekends ago, we finally got to shoot our very first officially booked wedding! It was a super sweet event. Jen & Eugene got married in beautiful Hawaii, and had their reception at The Reef in Long Beach. This event was referred to us & coordinated by the awesome Jill of Jordan Events Studio. Everything looked superb & not a single detail was missed!

I love these shots of Jen alone...

in waiting

Jen and Eugene are so sweet together. You can just see how happy they are together and how much they adore each other.

I think this was actually the last dance. lol. I never know how to narrow down the photos to post without bombarding this with photos. :P

Lisa + Khai = engaged!

nobody@vox.com(caroline tran) — Sun, 27 Apr 2008 15:25:39 -0700

Last Saturday, we headed over to Venice beach for some bike riding and to see the sunset. In the beginning of their relationship, Lisa & Khai spent their past times riding bikes. They even did a 30 mile bike ride! O_o So naturally, they wanted to have some reminiscent biking photos for their engagement session. Unfortunately, the bikes had no baskets, so their furbaby, lightning, was not able to join us. I hope to meet him someday!

I love the variety we got from this session. I can't wait for their wedding this June! It's going to be on a yacht!

The Hammer

nobody@vox.com(caroline tran) — Sun, 06 Apr 2008 22:31:51 -0700

he makes me look small

I'm not a movie person. We go to the theater maybe once a year, if even. Janet convinced me to go watch The Hammer on Friday and I'm so glad I did! The movie was awesome! Humorous, witty, and I love the story line.

Adam Corolla did a Q&A session after. What a deal! A movie & standup comedy! He talked about everything from Love Line to his radio show to the movie to dancing with the stars. He's doing a Paso Doble tomorrow and will be dressed like Zoro. Should be fun!

He didn't look tall from a far, but I was probably up to his armpits... then again, I'm also not very tall. :P I always joke about my big head, but he makes me look small!

2010 olympics

nobody@vox.com(caroline tran) — Mon, 31 Mar 2008 21:42:57 -0700

So we bought a vacation ownership (aka timeshare) before we got married. They gave us 2 trips to Hawaii with it, so we have not used any of our points. Now that I have so few vacation, we've decided to really utilize my summers & winters off.

We put ourselves on the waitlist for a week in Whistler, starting opening day. Can't wait! :) We should be able to get in. Crazy how quickly Whistler fills up.

We also put ourselves on the waitlist for this resort in Cancun for July 2009.

Resort

Can't wait! We're still figuring out how this RCI exchange stuff works, but they said we should get a spot. There are currently no vacancies b/c it's so far ahead that those RCI owners have not banked their points yet.

Julie & Ricky are such a blast to hang out with! We were so fortunate to photograph their engagement party and their engagement photo session this past weekend. It was SO much fun! It's late and I should sleep; I've been falling asleep at work this week. :( darn time change! I'll upload more tomorrow, but for now, I leave you with 3.

here kitty kitty!

nobody@vox.com(caroline tran) — Thu, 06 Mar 2008 21:09:40 -0800

I've never grew up around cats, so when I'm around one, I'm just so facinated by their peronalities and quirks.

Meet Rocky Balboa:

Meet Apollo:

It was so much fun chasing Apollo around, and super cute watching him fighting to stay awake at the end of the night.

Michael + Paula = The Proposal

nobody@vox.com(caroline tran) — Mon, 03 Mar 2008 22:56:30 -0800

Michael told Paula that they were just going on a casual photoshoot to help us build our portfolio. What Paula didn't know was that Michael was planning to pop the loooooong awaited question while we document it! I made a story book for them. :)

It was so cute watching him nervously finding the perfect location and even cuter watching her realize what's happening. The best part was watching her putting the pieces of the surprise together throughout the rest of the day.

Congrats to Michael & Paula on their engagement! Can't wait for the big day!
