California Quinceañera Photographer: Pasadena City Hall: Leah

September 6, 2026

Leah shared positive energy as she greeted each Quinceañera we passed at Pasadena City Hall. Sincere compliments, no hidden agenda. Just a reflection of who she is, but her mom says it best.

“Leah is beautiful, outgoing, and creative. She has a big personality and definitely knows how to make an entrance! Like any teenager, she can be a little moody sometimes, but underneath it all, she has a kind, loving heart. She cares deeply about the people she loves, and that’s one of the things that makes her so special.

One thing Leah really enjoys is playing volleyball. She also loves doing her makeup and expressing her creativity through beauty and style. She’s always finding little ways to show her personality and make things her own.

Leah is the kind of girl who is beautiful inside and out. Watching her grow into the young woman she is becoming has been such a joy. She may give us a little attitude every now and then, but she has a heart of gold, and I couldn’t be prouder of her.”

Mt. Baldy Engagement and Family Session: Walter loves Veronica.

August 25, 2026

Sometimes fate brings you together, and other times it watches as others’ plans begin the love story. For Veronica and Walter an invitation to a friend’s house would be the start of their lives together. Their friends knew that these two souls had to come together.

When Walter saw Veronica, he was instantly attracted to her smile. He soon saw that she was affectionate, caring, and, most importantly, supportive. Veronica thought he was the sweetest guy and soon learned he was caring, protective, and loyal.

Years have passed since their mutual friends set them up. As was expected, they fell in love and got married. Walter became a father to Veronica’s two kids, who had lost theirs, and since he wanted a big family, they added two more. Just as their family has grown, so has their love. “He makes me happy simply by being there for me. He makes me laugh. He supports me through everything and makes me feel loved and protected. I love his heart, his loyalty, and the way he cares for our family and me. He’s my best friend and my partner. I love that after all these years, he’s still the person I want to be beside me. I love the life we have built together and everything we still have ahead of us.”

Walter knew early on he had found a woman with a very huge heart. He proposed again on their 19th anniversary because he wanted to walk down the aisle with her on their 20th. “I love the way she brings the family close and makes us all laugh and enjoy our time together; she’s the glue that bonds us together, and I also love that she includes my parents on some occasions and makes them feel special.”

Soon, once again, Veronica and Walter will renew their vows with their family beside them as fate looks on and smiles.

August 20, 2026

Erick y Kimberlie celebraron su boda en la Iglesia Centro Cristiano de Adoración. Familia y amistades cantaron, y celebraron. Mientras que Erick hizo a Kimberlie llorar con sus palabras, Kimberlie lo hizo reír cuando sacó todo lo que tenia que decir en un papel enrollado. Siguiendo la tradición latina, se les puso un lazo con un corazón.

El Pastor Hugo Brenes ofició su boda y su esposa decoró la iglesia.

Después de la celebración, todos los presentes se reunieron para una foto en la que estaban todos, incluidos los recién casados.

Kimberlie y Erick siguieron el ejemplo de Jesús y sirvieron a sus invitados.

California Proposal Photography: Bonelli Park, San Dimas: J asked L.

August 19, 2026

The white blanket was held down with four rose arrangements. Petals were a walkway to it. J finished putting up 15 signs that marked milestones in their relationship. The first was when they met, and others included the first kiss and getting a key, but the last one said, “Will you marry me?” J had worked so hard to surprise L. With help from both their families and her best friend, they came up with a perfect ruse. L believed they were celebrating her parents’ anniversary and taking family pictures before dinner at a park.

I played the photographer who wasn’t sure where to shoot them. So when L and her family arrived, I met them in the parking lot and said I needed someone to make sure the spot would work. Everyone volunteered L to go with me. We walked and suddenly J stepped out. L smiled when she saw him and even joked, “This is a great practice for when you propose.” J smiled and said, “This isn’t a practice. It’s real.” He then walked her and they stopped at every sign, remembering all the happy moments they had shared.

He stopped at the last sign and then took L to the perfect spot he had chosen to ask her to marry him. There was a lake behind them, and a tree was beside them. J fell to one knee and asked L to say yes to being his wife. L, of course, said yes, and strangers in the park watching started clapping. Suddenly, they were surrounded by family celebrating a new milestone. J and L were engaged.
