Amanda and Aaron scoped out a sweet spot on the tracks overlooking our beautiful City of Angels for their engagement shoot a couple weeks back … what a stunning couple! I can’t wait for their wedding at The Bel Air Bay Club next month!

A Painter and a Food Editor …. I LOVE artist couples! (= Gillian and Jake kicked off their shoes for an informal shoot at their place in Venice. Be sure to stay tuned for a peek inside their Palm Springs wedding – cheers you two!

Modern Photography Engagement | Jerese and Sean | Malibu Creek State Park

jillgirl — Tue, 24 Jan 2012 16:13:19 +0000

How many people do you think get engaged in Central Park each year? Google couldn’t give me the stats on that… I’m proud to say that Central Park is where Tony and I got engaged. Jerese told me that Sean asked her to marry him by the bridge in Central Park too! Jerese and Sean are getting married at one of my VERY FAVORITE venues this year … the abandon mansion at Alder Manor. But this New York couple came to see me for a shoot in Malibu over the holidays. Jerese is a Michigan girl who loves the outdoors. Of course she is! Anyone could see that just by looking at the pictures (:

San Francisco Engagement Photos | Christina and Walt

jillgirl — Thu, 01 Sep 2011 21:26:41 +0000

Christina and Walt have a wonderful wedding planned… they’re getting married at an old Dance Hall in Walt’s home town in Monterey. Walt attended Boy Scout meetings in this hall when he was just a tyke…so much history there. I’m REALLY excited for their event. For their engagement photos we spent the day shooting in and around their home in South San Francisco. These two have a storybook life. (= Congratulations Christina and Walt….you found each other!!!

Balboa Island Engagement Photography | Erica and Michael

jillgirl — Tue, 16 Aug 2011 07:08:27 +0000

Erica and Michael are living the “LDR” lifestyle right now (Long Distance Relationship) … He lives in New York and she works out of Seattle. I think we all felt pretty lucky when the schedule Gods smiled on us with a day we could all make it to the OC for this shoot last month. The planets aligned in the weather department too – nothing but warm California sunshine smiling on us here (= With record rains here in NYC the last couple weeks…I have to admit, I’m just a smidge excited about getting home to what California does best… But I’ll be ready to return next month to shoot this couple’s wedding, Upstate. Can’t WAIT you guys!!!!

New York City Modern Engagement Photography | Erin and Chris

jillgirl — Tue, 28 Jun 2011 17:46:43 +0000

Erin and Chris have a big wedding planned this year at The Boathouse in Central Park. Whenever I dreamed of getting married (before I actually did), the wedding in my head was ALWAYS going to take place at the boathouse. So I will be living vicariously through Erin and Chris as I photograph their big day…alongside my husband, Tony. We actually got engaged here, so there will be lots of sappy ROMANCE thoughts floating around in our heads for this event (: Erin and Chris….we can’t WAIT!!!!

Modern Engagement Photography | New York City | Erin and Chris

I love this picture of Erin and Chris so much, that I had to post it right away. When Chris planted this passionate kiss onto Erin atop the Brooklyn Bridge – I think he took us both by surprise! He picked the exact right time to exercise his spontaneity! Walking the Brooklyn Bridge, overlooking the skyline of downtown – it’s kind of like Disneyland – it brings out a person’s festive side every time! Stay tuned for more favorites from Erin and Chris’ New York Engagement Session. p.s. they’re getting married at the boathouse in August (eeeek!!! so flippin’ excited for that!)

Modern Photography | Jessica and Brian | Marina Del Rey

jillgirl — Thu, 05 May 2011 12:00:43 +0000

Jessica and Brian sure did pick a good time to request an environment photo shoot in Southern California! It seams that every patch of undeveloped land is flooded with yellow wildflowers! So we followed these two love-birds through the terrain to capture some quiet moments together….just us…and them. What a ROMANTIC first date for the four of us! (= Thanks for making the drive Jess and Bri – can’t WAIT for the big day!

Margaret and John Engagement | Venice

jillgirl — Fri, 29 Apr 2011 12:00:39 +0000

Number one photography job perk? Working with like-minded people. Margaret is that funny person who has the most hilarious comments about what’s real…she’ll say the things I was thinking in my head – but couldn’t say because uh…I’m trying to run a business. I miss that person inside of me, the person who could make funny comments about inappropriate subject matter. I miss that person so much that I recently had a little breakdown about it….tears and all. I’M NOT FUNNY ANYMORE!!!! I cried to my husband. Ironically, he thought the entire sentiment was very funny. Well, I’m no Carrie Bradshaw, so I’m not going to wax on about the meaning of funny and why I keep that former funny girl all caged up these days. The point of the story is that Margaret and John are funny. You can see it in the pictures. Smiling and laughing and having a good time with life – that’s what they do as a couple. If every relationship could be like their’s …

Megha and Nirav | Ritz Carlton Wedding

jillgirl — Fri, 04 Mar 2011 09:36:05 +0000

This weekend I’m shooting Megha and Nirav’s Wedding at The Ritz in LA, so it’s only appropriate that I should post a few of the lovelies from their engagement session. I could brag about how wonderful this couple is for days…they both just have this thing that radiates from the inside to the outside….it’s GOOD PEOPLE kind of stuff. Oh….so THAT’S what makes them so good looking??? Haha, Megha and Nirav, congratulations on your big wedding weekend – and thank you for inviting us to be a part of it. We think you’re wonderful and we feel honored to capture the happiest day of your lives! xo -Jill and Tony
