Oh this was such a fun day for me, JPL in Pasadena was a photographers playground!. From rockets to moon rovers to wild deer, this place had all sorts of different things. I was itching to get some pictures with the deer, but…they’re kind of fast. And some of them have horns that look like it could penetrate my skin and hurt me badly.

On top of all the variety of splendor in our environment Mindy and Ricky brought their snowboards which was a first for me. I’ve never had anyone bring snowboards to a session. And just for the record, if any couples want to do a engagement session while snowboarding, I’m down, just let me know

Congratulations Mindy and Ricky!

Hello!

This is the lovely Sherri and Santos. That’s what most people call them. But in my mind I call them the ‘musically-gifted world trekkers.” Have you noticed most people who are musicians are cool people? Have you also noticed that most people who are travelers are cool too? If you haven’t you must be neither of those, and you must suck.

Sherri has lived all over the U.S. because her family’s in the military. She’s got this cool accent, I’m not really sure where it’s from. But it’s cool nonetheless. Santos has spent some time in west Africa which is one place I’m dying to go to. I always love talking to people from other places or who have been to a lot other places because their stories both inspire and excite me.

So this session took place in Old Town Pasadena–one of my favorite places to take photos because it has a lot of character and different backgrounds, much like this lovely couple!
