Em & Tiff | Spring Session in Orange County

April 7th, 2019tantony0 Comments

Happy Spring! I’m excited to be taking more outdoor photos in the sunshine and among all the blooming flowers. With all the rain we’ve been having, the blooms have been stunning! These girls wanted to do a spring photoshoot so went over to Quail Hill Trailhead in Irvine to snap our shots. I’ve taken photos here when it was dry and yellow, so it was nice to see the area so lush and green! Definitely gave these natural models a gorgeous backdrop 🙂 Enjoy!

Tiffany | Fall Portrait Session in Orange County

October 16th, 2018tantony0 Comments

Hello all! We’re in the middle of October and that means it’s pumpkin season! Nothing says October more than a visit to the good old pumpkin patch. My friend Tiffany wanted some fall portraits and we knew the local pumpkin patch would be a warm and festive location. Surprisingly, it started pouring the moment we stepped into the patch! There was no rain in the forecast so weren’t prepared at all, but after hiding under a tent for a while it eventually let up. We took the opportunity before the next downpour to take our photos, and the stormy sky …

Happy Fall, y’all! I recently had the honor of doing an engagement shoot for two of my friends and I am loving the autumn vibes in our session!

Happy Birthday America

I decided to take some Fourth of July themed photos to celebrate the friendships we’ve made in the country of red, white, and blue. The lighting in Quail Hill Preserve in Irvine, CA captured our spirit perfectly. Golden light cast halos around us and set the colors of our flag aflame. The tans, oranges, and golds of our skins glowed against the sea of yellow brush, while the flag swept over us in its fiery glory. Had it not been for our non-stop laughter and incessant complaining, we could have very well been as majestic as the Statue of Liberty. What mattered was …
