Kristyn + Ryan's wedding was so much fun! I knew it would be, we had a blast getting to know them through the engagement session and their humor just completely matched our's!
The first look! 
My favorite shot of the day! The emotion in this image feels so real, this is just before Kristyn & her mother walked down the aisle together. Also, I spy Nicole DeAnne in this shot, Kristyn hired Nicole DeAnne to do her hair and make-up, she even had Nicole stay until this very moment.
Ha! Kristyn was very entertained by Justin's glasses, I call them his "7th grade science teacher" glasses!
Melinda from Weddings by Melinda did a great job at coordinating the whole day!
Seriously, something has to be said about Melody from My Sweet & Saucy, the girl is TALENTED and her desserts taste out of this world!!! If you ever have the chance to taste one of her many delicious creations, do it, it is SO WORTH IT! Kristyn + Ryan hired My Sweet & Saucy to bring dessert for their guests.
At the end of the evening there was an IN-N-OUT truck waiting their guests for a round two of dinner.

A humongous THANK YOU to Kristyn + Ryan for having us out! Click here to view their wedding day slideshow, don't hate on the song I chose, it's sort of a special treat specifically for Kristyn!;)

...i like your beard... :) good song choice!
awesome job amelia...and justin, i think you should pimp out your classes more often...that would have been fun to snag them and grab a pic of myself in them at the lyon-shop...darn it! wish i had thought of it...and didn't even get a pic of me with EITHER of you. i think i was too saturated with the wisdom you imparted that i completely lost all sense. (temporarily...uhhhh maybe not!)

Love the detailed reception & food shots. Great creative shot with the In & Out Burger holder and the wedding rings. As a NYC lover of In & Out Burger, that shot really spoke to me.

Happy Two-fer Tuesday! I decided to post two engagement sessions on the blog today, thought I would give all you followers some extra eye-candy since I was out of town last week and un-able to access anything via the internet.
Shirley + Sam brought their adorable dog with them to the shoot. They rescued it together a while back!
Here's Shirley + Sam, I shot their engagement session along with Jason Roger in LA with Downtown as the backdrop. We started at the Observatory and then ventured out into the surrounding areas.
My second fav!

Beautiful images as always Amelia. I fell in love with your work when I first saw the pictures you took of your sister-in-law (?!?) a couple of months ago cause she was the most fabulous pregnant woman I had ever seen and I've been a huge fan of yours since then. I always look forward to your next post.
They are all great images, but the first with the intensity emanating from her eyes and the last one with the halo you created are my hands down fav.
Keep up the fab work. :-)
p.s: isnt it interesting how everyone has a different fav. I do love the subjectivity of photography. :-)

Love this session. How do you get such a good angle on the shots from above with them laying on the ground? Mine are always awkward. Do I need a ladder?
