Nishi & Devang's Engagement Portraits It was a pleasure taking these portraits....I've known Nishi for 20 years! And the wonderful Westside weather didn't hurt either :) Starting in Marina Del Rey and making our way north through Venice and ending up in Santa Monica was a great afternoon. The completely different environment definitely got my creative juices flowing and Nishi had to remind me that they loved taking photos, but they had to get going to their evening plans...talk about an ethusiastic photographer!

Anyways...enjoy....


The Venice canals...a hidden gem on the Westside...amazing that they're nestled just a couple blocks from a major street with tons of traffic!


What always makes me smile is the expressions that couples have on their faces when they're having a great time. This usually happens during wedding receptions when the newly married couple are dancing together, but I just love Nishi's smile in this photo. Spontaneous and fleeting...just love capturing that.


Obviously much more posed...the setting sun, beach, and ocean in the background? Makes me want to go right back and take another couple there. Traveling photographer? How about traveling clients?!


Loved the lines on this wood bench and the people nearby conveniently got up just as I wished there was more space on the bench to get a slightly askew shot. Photographing people, I tend to forget about lines, but I just had to get this bench into their shoot.

How can you do a shoot in Santa Monica without looking out on the Pacific?
