Alyson and Tony
These two met online in 2011 and have been best friends since. They had their first date in Santa Monica, which turned into a marathon date (you know it’s going well when that happens!). It started with them getting frozen yogurt, THEN tea, THEN sushi, and finally ended at Griffith Observatory where they shared their first kiss while overlooking the city lights. I love that they didn’t want to leave each other! How cute is that?!
Venue: Griffith Observatory
Not only did Griffith Observatory make sense for Alyson and Tony with it being such a special place for them, but it’s not too shabby to photograph either! It has a perfect view of the Hollywood Sign and is a beautiful place to see Los Angeles – the landscape, the sunset, and finally at the end of the night – the stars and city lights. While there is plenty to see just on the outside, it also has over 10 exhibits inside if you are wanting to experience this landmark of LA.
Engagement Session
Like most people who aren’t used to having a photographer follow them around, Alyson and Tony took a little time to warm up to the session. However, one thing was obvious from the start… they are comfortable with each other and their personality’s just make sense together. Tony has a sense of humor that comes alive whenever he’s around Alyson. Plus, they brought their dog Sloopy and we got some of the cutest pictures with her!
I met Alyson and Tony through a former bride of mine turned coordinator/stylist: Margaux Fraise with Harmony Creative Studio. Since her wedding, I have worked with her on a handful of events, and they are always perfect… every detail thought out. Their engagement was no exception, as will their June wedding. It’s at a relatively newer venue, Oak Canyon Ranch in Agoura Hills and if you know me at all, I LOVE shooting in new places, so this one has me super excited!
