My brother recently facebooked me and said “Tracy, you HAVE  to request friendship with Dee Dee“. My response…….”ahhh o.k. why”?  I confess I really wasn’t familiar with her work, so like any good stalker I googled her, viewed her site… which is amazing, read every inch of her blog… and then went back to facebook and became “friends”. My brother and Dee Dee had been best of friends in high school. Why didnt I remember that? Hmmmm I Have some ideas on that but we wont go into them here! lol Anyhew… Dee Dee and I chatted via facebook back and forth and she invited me to hang out with her on an upcoming wedding she was shooting at the Mission Inn. I was thrilled. Its not very often I get the chance to shoot in an amazing venue and not have the stress of keeping on a time line, making sure all the family is in the right spot at the right time etc. I also had just purchase a new lens that I was wanting to play with and this was a nice way to get the hang of it and get some stunning images too! Her clients were gorgeous, the day was perfect, and I was able to capture some of my most creative wedding images to date. Take a look…..

I first met Pam when she contacted me to shoot a vow renewal in Santa Monica. Pam is an event planner and ownes Entra Events , and though Im not free to give any details, (I’m not one to gossip) she needed some fun gorgeous pictures that wernt all business-ey looking!  They really do reflect her personality, and love of the outdoors and reading. We were on our way to one of my top secret shooting locations when I spotted a perfect little spot where the brush looked just perfect and the sun seemed to glow magicly through the trees. I pulled over and we were litteraly in the dirt on the side of the road! lol ya just never know where you’ll find a picture perfect spot..
