In life sometimes we need to press pause and just be thankful for the beautiful life that we have. In the midst of work, running errands, social networking, hanging out with friends – we often forget to celebrate ourselves. And the best way to celebrate oneself is with a portrait session!

This exactly what our new friend Julia had in mind. Not only that, she is prepping for the start of a budding music career and needed some portraits for her upcoming CD and online promos. It was such a treat to leave the warm San Gabriel Valley and head to the beautiful coast and canyon of Laguna Beach. The beautiful scenery, gorgeous weather, radiant smile and personality pretty much wraps up our Sunday afternoon spent with Julia.

On a side note: We’re taking a “time-out” from our busy schedules this weekend and celebrating our upcoming wedding with our most awesomest friends and family up in Santa Barbara. So, we’ll be out of pocket for a few days but will be back on Monday! 😀
