Rachael + Scott - Yosemite National Forest

This blog has a new home. Check out my latest work at: www.capturedbyaimee.com/blog

I grew up with Rachael so when she told me she was engaged I was excited, when she said they were getting married in Yosemite we were jealous, and when she asked us if we would photograph her wedding we were honored. Family and friends assembled for three days of activities and to celebrate the nuptials of two of the sweetest people in the world.  They were married at Glacier Point in Yosemite. They read their vows overlooking Half Dome and El Capitan. We were blown away by the beauty of Yosemite and the love that Rachael and Scott have for one another and their family.  On to some of my all time favorite wedding photo's.

Megan + Brain Engagement Session

When we met up with Megan and Brain at the Cabrillo National Monument Tide Pools in San Diego for their engagement session we started joking and laughing immediately. Their ridiculous looking pugs CoCo and Tini added to the fun. By the end of the shoot my cheeks hurt from smiling and laughing. 
I love when I get to shoot couples that are as excited and fun loving as these two. I cannot wait for their wedding in 2011.

Chuck & Becky - Palos Verdes - Wayfarers Chapel

It is really cool when you get a glimpse of true love. 

Dorian and I got more than a glimpse at Chuck and Becky's 

wedding at Wayfarer's Chapel in Palos Verdes. The evidence 

was apparent on Chuck's face as soon as Becky made her way 

through the large wooden doors of the small "tree chapel." 

Chuck's expression was of true love and pure bliss; 

an amazing thing to bare witness to!

I was so excited to shoot the inside of the chapel designed 

by Lloyd Wright, Frank Lloyd Wright's son, especially after 

taking shots of the grounds for Chuck and Becky's engagement 

shoot. The chapel did not disappoint, the organic architecture 

and lighting provided an amazing backdrop.

Here are a few of my favorites.

Chuck & Becky - Engagement Session - Palos Verdes

This blog has a new home. Check out my latest work at: www.capturedbyaimee.com/blog

Last Sunday we drove up to Palos Verdes to take engagement photo's of Becky and Chuck. We met them at their ceremony site, Wayfarers Chapel, a glass structure overlooking the Pacific Ocean designed by Lloyd Wright. The grounds were amazing and we were so inspired that we started shooting right there. Afterwards, we headed over to Abolone Cove State Park to shoot some more. On the mile hike down to the beach, we learned more about Becky and Chuck. Aside from being a beautiful couple they are warm and genuine and even though we only have known them a short time they already feel like old friends. We could not of agreed with Chuck more, when he said: "We're having a great time."

The day ended with more photos on the electric trolley that runs along the Port of Los Angeles. We're looking forward to more good times at their April wedding!

p.s. Chuck and Becky digging the boot as are my cats!!
