So basically, this was an awesome shoot. I got to check out downtown Orange, which is a nice quaint little town, and hang out with Lisa and Warren. Lisa asked that I don’t post all the photos because she wants to display some at her wedding as a surprise to the guests, so if you want to see the rest of the photos you’ll have to crash her wedding But I assure you, they’re pretty cool. Warren has this really cool retro BMW that  we drove out with, and actually shot with a little bit. I really liked the car.

At the end of the day we ended it with some jumping into the pull shots, and even better, we ended it with some bomb Thai food. Great day, great food, great shots! I love, I love, I love.

So prior to their engagement session I was shooting everyday all day for about two weeks, and as a result I got sick. So during this session I was all congested, messed up, and ugly. It was my first time being sick during a shoot out of all the years I’ve been shooting, bleh.

Fortunately for me I got to photograph this easy going, Lakers-loving, food-loving, basketball-loving couple!  I might’ve been all disoriented and unenthusiastic on the outside, but inside I was like “Yes!!!!!!” Eri and Jun are pretty awesome people! PLUS they went to my high school, albeit they were a few years ahead of me, and I didn’t know them, but it’s always fun knowing that people came from where I came from.  And even though we got kicked out a couple of times from places we shot during this session, the funny power from Eri, June, Evelyn (our make up artist), and Paul (our bouncer) made it all good! Thank you guys for being so fun

I want to write something that’ll supplement this post, but I don’t think this post really needs any words. It’s love, and it’s beautiful.

This is my third post of the day! Whew! I don’t think I’ve ever crunched out this many posts in one day, I’m pretty drained! But at the same time I’m super excited, and the adrenaline from my excitement is still allowing me to type even though both my eyes are severely strained and almost shut.

So meet Liz, RJ, and the tummy!!! I wanted to put these up as soon as possible because Liz could blow any minute, in fact, any second. And I wouldn’t get as excited posting up maternity photos if she’s no longer pregnant, ‘naaa mean?

So I’m pretty inspired by Liz, and I’ll tell you why. This girl ran a marathon while she was pregnant, or maybe it was half-marathon. Either way, I’m pretty impressed. I’ll run about a mile at the gym and I’ll feel pretty accomplished. I was just about to type the fact that I don’t even know what it would feel like to run with a big tummy, but then I look at my tummy, and I realize I’d be lying.

Congratulations to Liz and RJ, you guys are so beautiful and I can’t wait to see baby!
