Rebecca and Max were double the fun when they brought their lovely pups up to the Griffith Park Observatory, one of our favorite places to shoot in LA.  If you can deal with the sometimes chaotic crowds it can be a blast to take photos at.  So...

Every once in awhile I like to pull out the white seamless backdrop and get some photos of Lily goofing off on it.  Somehow she seems able to entertain herself for hours at end, you know until she has a massive meltdown which can only be comforted by Dad [sans camera].

Tara and Steve are an absolutely adorable couple and we got to know them better in their hometown of Redondo Beach, California.  Redondo is a nice hip town and we got to tour some of their favorite spots at sunset.  As I'm sure is obvious from the photos, their love for each other is quite evident.  They have wonderfully compatible personalities and are some of the most gracious people you'll meet.  Hope you enjoy the photos, they're a ton of fun!
