It was a beautiful, sunny, California afternoon, as I pulled up to The Park Manor Suites in Downtown San Diego.  Shannon and Anthony were finally getting married!!  I was excited to spend the day with them.  Earlier in the week, I discovered the unique story of their engagement!!  Proposal via movie marquee or at least, that’s how I like to refer to it.  Anthony had surprised Shannon by proposing to her under a movie marquee that said:  “Shannon, will you marry me?”  I knew there was something about them when I did their engagements a while back…but I didn’t think to ask…they’re sweet, aren’t they??  Shannon had no clue what was happening and here’s where they are today…getting married!

I had so much fun, spending the day with Shannon and her bridesmaids (who were absolutly fabulous), Anthony and his groomsmen and their family and friends…while overlooking the beautiful skyline of San Diego.  How much better can California be??  Check out the newly married Shannon and Anthony…

My friend Erin, who was a bride of mine last year, emailed me a few weeks ago, asking about headshots.  My inquiring mind was all about knowing what she needed headshots for, so I asked what they were for.

Erin is a musical talent – I found this out when I photographed her sister’s wedding earlier this year.  She was asked to sing a few songs at the wedding and I remember being amazed at how well she sang.  I even remember heading home and telling the hubby that she should try out for American Idol (he was a bit jealous that I have not said this about his singing, but that would be a whole other blog post…).

So, Erin needed headshots for a few musicals that she is planning on auditioning for and of course, I was totally willing to oblige!  Who is going to say no to a beautiful, blond, singing babe??  Not me!!   We met up at the Balboa Peninsula and had a bit of fun…and no worries, Erin promised to not forget the little people when she hits the big time!!  Check out a few of the favorites from the fun…
