los angeles engagement by joy marie | megan + travis

It was such good times hanging out with Megan & Travis for their recent Los Angeles engagement session. These two are so cute together, and Travis is seriously one of the funniest people I’ve ever met. He had me cracking up pretty much the entire shoot. I’m really looking forward to their Orange County wedding at The Hacienda. I know it’s going to be such a fun day!

This shot pretty much sums up Travis! So HILARIOUS!!

my favorite shot of the day!

These last few weeks have been jam-packed with so much travel and shooting that my blog posts are a bit neglected! Now that I’ve landed back home for a couple of days, I’m going to attempt to catch up and I’m excited to share a few pics from my recent Santa Monica engagement shoot. I had so much fun spending some time with Lauren & David at the Santa Monica Pier. Lauren & David are such a sweet couple, and I’m super excited for their upcoming wedding at the Biltmore!

love love Lauren's blue dress!

I’m pretty sure David is tired of me saying, “I REALLY love these two!!” every single time he walks by, while I’m working on Mitzi & Darwin’s wedding images. I have so enjoyed getting to know Mitzi & Darwin over the last year. They are both super kind, creative, funny and absolutely perfect for each other. Most importantly, they completely adore each other, which has made my time with them during their Los Angeles engagement shoot & wedding so easy and fun! Their wedding ceremony was held at the beautiful & historic St. Charles of Borromeo Catholic Church, and then we were off to Marina Del Rey for some SERIOUS celebration!! It was an incredibly gorgeous day, and such an honor for me to be a part of it! Congratulations, Mitzi & Darwin!!

cutest grandparents ever!

the BEAUTIFUL Mitzi!!

A big thanks to Daniel Boswell and his team at dvArtistry for doing such an AMAZING job with the wedding cinematography. Some of the best I’ve seen!!

I always consider it an INCREDIBLE privilege when I get to travel life’s journey with my clients, and be a part of their intimate milestones. Pregnancy is such a beautiful time, and I absolutely LOVE photographing it! It makes me even happier when that bump is the love product of one of MY couples (big smile). You may remember Evelyn & Louis from their Los Angeles engagement, or incredible Rancho Las Lomas wedding. Evelyn & Louis are so special to me. I love that they are so incredibly gorgeous, but they just don’t take themselves too seriously. We had such a good time, and I’m super excited to meet their beautiful baby girl in a couple of weeks!!

Shai wasn't so excited about this shot

Shai is really their first child!

out of this world…los angeles engagement shoot by joy marie…karnis + alex

joy marie — Thu, 27 Aug 2009 20:25:42 +0000

So, I just LOVE it when my clients come up with crazy, creative concepts for their engagement shoot. Karnis & Alex completely came up with concepts & sketched out everything from the locations down to the minutest details of their outfits for this rockin’ Los Angeles session! We covered themes from the iconic American Gothic portrait by Grant Wood to some of Norman Rockwell’s famous works to comic book lovebirds, Clark Kent & Lois Lane. This had to be one of the funnest engagement shoots EVER!! It’s hard to express how excited I am for Karnis & Alex’s upcoming wedding at the gorgeous Sherwood Country Club. These two must be planning to honeymoon on the planet Krypton! Thanks guys, for an INCREDIBLE experience!!

I know Karnis & Alex want to know what you think about this session, and you KNOW I do too! Holla back!

venice engagement by joy marie…courtney + andrew

I know I say this so much, but I really had such a great time shooting Courtney & Andrew’s engagement session. These two are such incredible free spirits, with fabulous style and an amazing love & connection to one another. I should also mention that Courtney & Andrew are both AMAZING musicians, and I met them last summer at another Malibu wedding where they were performing and I was shooting. I am so looking forward to their Malibu wedding this summer at the gorgeous Adamson House!

we snuck in a few shots after dinner in Venice...just love!

love Courtney's vintage dress!
